Last year, some councillors tried to infringe on our Charter rights and freedoms by attempting to ban protests and pickets across the city. The vote was close, but we organized and won. Help protect our Charter freedoms again: www.progresstoronto.ca/petition-pro...

Could restrictions on protests and pickets amount to a ban in nearly every neighbourhood? A bylaw limiting our freedoms could affect communities across the city. Take action: www.progresstoronto.ca/petition-pro...

We're seeing unprecedented attacks on the freedom to protest south of the border, with protesters being arrested and deported. As we protect Canada’s sovereignty from Trump, we must also defend our Charter rights and freedoms. Sign the petition: www.progresstoronto.ca/petition-pro...

City Council is considering a bylaw that could limit our Charter-protected right to protest. With Trump attacking Canada’s sovereignty and protest rights in the U.S., we must defend our Canadian rights and freedoms. Tell your councillor and the Mayor: www.progresstoronto.ca/petition-pro...

In the 2025 Budget libraries are set to open 7 days per week at ALL branches across the city. Right now many libraries aren’t open on Sundays. But conservatives want to keep libraries closed to save a buck. Push back against conservatives: www.progresstoronto.ca/no-cuts-no-f...

For decades TTC fares have risen beyond inflation. Now we can freeze fares to save riders money and encourage more transit use. But conservatives want to increase fares and balance the budget on the backs of riders. Take action against fare increases: www.progresstoronto.ca/no-cuts-no-f...

As families struggle to access food, conservatives want to cut school meals that would feed over 21,500 children. These programs ensure students are fed, helping them learn. They also save families time and money. Sign our petition to say no to cuts: www.progresstoronto.ca/no-cuts-no-f...

Why do conservatives want to start a right-wing version of Progress Toronto? Because together we make it harder for them to win. With a small budget and many volunteers, we let voters know the truth about conservative candidates. Read The Star article ⬇️ www.thestar.com/news/gta/thi...
