The G8 and G20 2010 Summits are being met with an immense community-based resistance, from various organizations and individuals who are a part of the Toronto Community Mobilization Network.
The Toronto Community Mobilization Network is able to provide spokespeople from our network to discuss the role, work and structure of the network. We can also arrange interviews with spokespeople to speak to issues forefronted by the Network. Those issues include:
- indigenous sovereignty and self-determination
- environmmental justice and climate justice
- disAbility rights
- migrant justice and immigration
- militarism and issues of war and occupation
- gender justice
- income equity and community control over resources, including issues of poverty, job loss and homelessness
Contact the network for more information or to arrange interviews with issue spokespeople.
If you are an independent media activist who would like to know more about the Media Centre, email g20altmedia@gmail.com and read this.

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.
