Canadian Youth Climate Coalition

The Council of Canadians

Defenders of the Land

Ontario Coalition Against Poverty

Ontario Federation of Labour

Oxfam Canada

Toronto Community Mobilization Network

The People First rally planned to occur in Queen’s Park today in Toronto will likely include these major players.
