Bike Block
We all know Critical Mass - and we love the feeling of empowerment we get
from it month after month. But why stop there? We can do so much more.
The same capitalist system that ripped the tramway lines out of our
streets in the 50’s to make way for Car Culture strikes again, this time
in the heart of Toronto. They’ve appropriated all of downtown, and their
goons are making sure we don’t feel welcome. And once again these “world
leaders” will be making decisions that deeply affect our lives - lives
that they just don’t give a fuck about. Let’s show them that they are not
welcome, that the streets are ours, and that we will not be silenced!
When we ride together, we are strong - on June 27th, hordes of cyclists
will storm the streets of Toronto in a festive parade. Will you be among
us?
Don’t ride alone! Don’t let them go unchallenged! Join the Bike Block!
Sunday June 27th, at 1 PM, corner of Bloor and Spadina.

The G8/G20 meetings took place in Ontario from June 25-27, 2010. Toronto-based organizations of women, people of colour, indigenous peoples, the poor, the working class, queer and trans people and disabled people organized a peoples convergence with 40,000 people taking to the streets, standing up for justice in collaboration and solidarity!
Activists, community members, inspired and outraged individuals came together as a movement to demand justice for people and the planet. Over a week of mobilizations, events, workshops and direct actions took place in the face of state and police repression, violence and infringements on rights and freedoms.
We must continue to mobilize and build greater solidarity among our communities- an important part of this is supporting all those arrested during the G20 summit, including our allies still in detention, and those released on bail.
