Join us for an Affordable Housing Rally
on Sunday, June 10, 2007-Noon to 1PM at
New Edinborough Park; 5A Street at 3 Avenue NW (Sunnyside).
The Calgary Housing Action Initiative (CHAI) is asking the Alberta
Government to protect vulnerable Albertans from excessive rent increases while an adequate supply of affordable housing is built.
There will be speakers who are facing eviction, the raging Grannies, and politicians (hopefully including Conservative MLAs in Calgary who are in favour of temporary rent controls).
The rest of the afternoon on June 10th is the Healthy Parks party to celebrate pesticide free parks in Calgary. There will be music, food and games.
For those who have had an excessive rent increase, CHAI is asking them to phone Ray Danyluk, the Alberta Housing Minister, and ask Ray to help them. Go to

for his contact info.
