QUAI
DES ECLUSIERS GO AWAY!
December 13 - 16
When
developers start building expensive condos in our neighborhoods,
our rents go up, and poor and working people are pushed out
of our homes in the middle of a housing crisis. It's time
to quit building condos. The Quai des Eclusiers condo development
project in St-Henri must be stopped.
CLAC Logement is organizing to maintain a constant presence
outside the Quai des Eclusiers real estate offices during
their selling hours. We intend to disrupt business as usual
and send the message that the residents of St-Henri don't
want Quai des Eclusiers building their luxury lofts and private
marina and gentrifying our neighborhood. The weekend will
culminate in an action to confront the developers on Monday,
December 16th.
We are inviting residents of the South-West and everyone resisting
gentrification across the island to join us...
