We need to send a clear message to Dalton McGuinty and Toronto MPPs that they need to keep their promises and restore Transit City funding now.

The website - http://ttcriders.ca/takeaction - makes it really easy to send an email to the Premier (you can send it through the website and sample text is provided) and it provides all contact information for Toronto MPPs.

Please go to http://ttcriders.ca/takeaction to take action and help save Transit City.

You can also take action by calling Premier McGuinty and your local MPP at 416-326-1234.

Leave a simple message: “Please restore the $4 Billion in Transit City funding now! We can’t afford any delay.”

All MPP contact information for Toronto MPPs can be found here: http://www.ttcriders.ca/takeaction/#call


Speak out. Send a Message. Save Transit City.

--------------------

Be sure to RSVP and invite friends to the launch of the Public Transit Coalition on Wednesday April 21st, 6pm, in Council Chambers, Toronto City Hall.

We need to pack the room to show our elected officials that there is a steep political price to pay if they don’t change their minds and build Transit City!

At the launch we’ll debut a public transit pledge we want all Councillors, MPPs and candidates to take to guarantee that we are electing people who support strong public transit for Toronto.

Fully funded, affordable and rapid transit is critical to our economic prosperity, our environmental future and our goal of building a city that is equitable and provides opportunity for all.

Join us in demanding that the province and elected officials live up to their end of the bargain.
