National Day of Action to Support Bill S-228: Phone Blitz
We need your help. The Survivors Circle for Reproductive Justice is asking you to commit 35 min to join a phone blitz to call MP's and voice your support for the passing of Bill S-228. This is a federal bill to criminalize forced and coerced sterilization within Canada. The passing of this bill will bring justice to survivors and protect future generations.
Getting involved is really easy. All you need is to register, join the zoom on your selected date and help us make calls! You can also bring your friends, colleagues and network! We will provide you with a call list and even provide you with a script.
