OPSEU members to rally in London telling Ontarians to ‘Choose Public’

LONDON — Members of the Ontario Public Service Employees Union will hold an information picket today to bring a message that privatizing public services will hurt Ontarians.

When: Thursday, March 29, 2012
Where: 217 York St., London
Time: Noon-1 p.m.

The picket will take place in front of the ServiceOntario office, a service that the McGuinty government plans to completely privatize. The recent fiasco at Ornge has proven that handing public services over to private operators is a recipe for disaster.

Ontario’s Public Service workers provide high quality services at a very low cost to each and every Ontarian. These jobs provide economic stability in communities that could not survive without that spending power.
