We’ve passed the first hurdle towards a living wage bylaw in the City of Ottawa by winning the first vote directing City staff to investigate possible Living Wage options.

Now comes the hard part. Over the coming months City staff will investigate different types of living wage bylaws before presenting proposals to Ottawa City Council for a vote. We need to make sure we have the votes necessary on Council to pass the most progressive of the options that staff will present.

ACORN Members are taking to the streets to lobby their councilors; can you send a quick message in support of their grassroots efforts?

About

ACORN Canada is an independent national organization of low and moderate income families.

With 40,000+ members organized into 20+ neighbourhood chapters in 7 cities across Canada we've been organizing to win a Canada where low and moderate income families have their voices heard and their power felt since 2004.

We believe that transforming the conditions that adversely affect millions of Canadians can best be achieved with a national active membership who are deeply invested in their organization and focused on lasting socio-economic change.
