VIDEO: Thousands rally for medicare in Niagara-on-the-Lake

On Thursday, July 25, the Ontario Health Coalition and the Canadian Health Coalition hosted a great rally in Niagara-on-the-Lake to call on Canada’s premiers to put pressure on the Harper government to renew the Canada Health Accord.

The OFL, along with many other labour unions and community groups played a significant role in helping to mobilize for this event, but it was only successful because of the incredible number of concerned Canadians who came out to express support for public medicare.

Now we need your help in sharing a short video that the OFL produced of the event.

Please share this video with your networks and over social media.
