Second rally to protest Bill C-38 set for tonight The residents' group Reclaim Our Democratic Canada will hold a rally tonight (Wednesday) at the office of Oakville MP Terence Young, 165 Cross Ave., to continue their protest of federal budget bill C-38. The rally is expected to last from 5:20-6 p.m., and aims to encourage all MPs to vote against the bill, which protesters believe is trying to change too many laws too quickly and without enough examination. Reclaim Our Democratic Canada Co-ordinator Bev LeFrancois has described bill C-38 as a 452 page Omnibus Bill that makes modifications to 60 different laws, concerning the environment, immigration, pensions and employment. Some of the changes, she said, include a 3 · Wednesday, June 13, 2012 OAKVILLE BEAVER · www.insideHALTON.com Inside Opinion............................................6 Artscene.........................................23 Sports.............................................25 Classified.......................................29 Full Delivery: Real Estate, Sport Chek, Onward Manufacturing, 3 for 1 Glasses, Athletic Locker, Rona, Maison 190, JYSK, Atmosphere, PW Stone, Muskoka Tourism, National Sports, Shopping News, Golf Town, Bouclair, Home Depot, XS Cargo, Sheridan Nurseries, Sears, Staples, Bouclair For home delivery & customer service call (905) 845-9742 Mon., Tues. 9 a.m.-5 p.m. Wed., Thu., and Fri. 9 a.m.-7 p.m. (open for calls only after 5 p.m.) Closed Sat. and Sun.

This increase would occur over a six-year period starting in 2023. The bill would also see employment insurance recipients split into three categories based on how often they've claimed employment insurance in the past. Those dubbed frequent users would be given six weeks of employment insurance to look for work in a similar occupation before they would be expected to take a job out of their field. The Green Party of Canada has also been critical of bill C-38 stating it attacks environmental legislation by repealing the Kyoto Protocol Implementation Act, cancelling the National Round Table on the Environment and the Economy, and rewriting the Fisheries Act, the Species at Risk Act, and the Navigable Waters Protection Act. This will be Reclaim Our Democratic Canada's second rally against bill C-38. The first rally was held June 2, at Oakville's Towne Square and drew around 60 people. Those who attend the Wednesday rally are encouraged to wear red and white, wave a Canadian flag, bring their own protest poster and make lots of noise.
