__________________________________________________________________

Join us as we rally outside the headquarters of the University of Toronto's Board of Governors Wednesday, May 21, to protest UofT campaign of intimidation against those mobilizing against fee hikes. We will peacefully attempt to deliver letters and 1700 petition signatures in support of 14 students arrested and charged by the University in connection with their campaign for accessible education. The rally will feature speakers from the Committee for Just Education and its allies "charging" U of T administration with misconduct in its repressive response to peaceful dissent.

Start: 7:00 pm

No One Is Illegal-Toronto invites all allies and migrant rights groups to attend a very important meeting on the recent escalation of immigration enforcement tactics, including workplace raids, and what we can do to stop them. This is an open meeting, to discuss what has happened, to share ideas and come up with responses to these recent attacks.

OPEN MEETING: STOP THE RAIDS ON MIGRANT WORKERS
Wednesday, May 21nd - 7pm
OISE (252 Bloor St W - at the St. George subway station)

On May 6th, the Auditor General released a report, claiming that she had "discovered" that there are 41,000 undocumented people in Canada, people she termed "illegal" that cannot be traced by the Canadian Border Security Agency (CBSA). Increased funding of the agency was the only solution, she
urged.

URGENT ACTION!
Stop the Raids on Migrant Workers! Stop Police Brutality! Don't Ask Don't Tell!
Rally at Police Headquarters
40 College Street (between Bay & Yonge)
Thursday, May 22nd, 2008
12:00pm

On May 7, 2008, the Canadian Border Services Agency with assistance from Peel Regional Police raided SDR Distribution, at Dixie Rd. and Highway 401 in Mississauga.

As the police held the workplace hostage, Border Service Agents swarmed the building, checking IDs, harassing workers, and arresting 45 undocumented women and men.

The raids took place the day after the Auditor General's Report claimed that there were 41,000 "missing" undocumented workers that had to be immediately apprehended. Harper's government has escalated its attack on migrant communities using police officers as its enforcement tools.
