The Fredericton NB Rebelles want to support the protest of the elimination of the ACSW by encouraging the people of New Brunswick to show the Alward government the faces of the people that they've attempted to silence.
Self identified women can take their own pictures with tape over their mouths with the word "Alward" written across it.
"Part of the unique mandate of the ACSW is to analyze the impact of government action and inaction on the status of women and to bring it to the attention of the public and decision-makers." This important voice is being silenced by the Alward government; now it's time for them to look into the faces of the women they are silencing.
Please help support our initiative and the ACSW by posting a picture of yourself with tape on your mouth. Preferably the picture would be looking with disapproval at the camera, challenging this elimination of women's voices, perspectives and insight in New Brunswick government.
The Fredericton Rebelles are hosting a meeting this Wednesday March 30th at Feminist HQ in Fredericton to take pictures for women. Please feel free to email us at nbrebelles@gmail.com for details.
We will post these pictures on the facebook action page, and will also email them to David Alward at david.alward@gnb.ca. The Advisory council's blog has more information about who else you can contact about your outrage and they suggest the media as well as your local MLA:
