The Rad School presents

Program Title: 'City for Sale – Whose city? Whose development? Whose security?'
Description: What's happening to public space in Montreal? Rising land values and real estate are having an adverse impact on existing communities. Gentrification and mega-urban developments like the Quartier des Spectacles continue unchecked. People – especially the poor – are being displaced and bashed. Expensive condos replace affordable housing. There is more police profiling of street people, more 'urban cleansing,' and the security of those who work in the streets is jeopardized. Meanwhile, community concerns are being ignored. How can we stop this process and take back our city? How do we keep Montreal affordable, accessible and liveable? A panel presentation and roundtable discussion.

Host(s):
Featured Speakers/Guests: • John Bradley, community organizer, Pointe Sainte-Charles Community Clinic • Stéphanie Lareau and Anita Schoepp from STELLA (sex-workers rights organization) • Velma Candyass, Save the Lower Main Coalition • Norman Nawrocki, facilitator
