liquor licences routinely come up for renewal. |

can someone create a facebook page?? i'm actually really pissed off about this. Is there a possibility that with enough complaints they may revert it back to the way it was? (i know it's a little more complicated than that)
It is obvious they are trying to eventually weed out every single club from the downtown core and move them outside of the city so they can use that space for other businesses and have other regions in the GTA deal with the violence/loud noise and everything else. Old people are ruining our city. |
Already did
and it has almost 1900 members
please join and invite everyone on your friends list! It will be a great conduit towards organizing!

in the last thread you promised us you'd compile a bunch of councillor's emails and them post them here so we can contact them to complain about the back patio bylaw. did that happen? that was over 2 weeks ago.
what makes you think u can organize a protest?
:rolleyes: |
1900 people in my facebook group and growing. Thats what ;)
honestly why not contribute to the cause instead of posting this?
As i said, WITH HELP i would love to organize. ;) |

The first thing I'm going to do is write an email to my city councillor about this, and afterward I will post it in this thread.
What else can be done about this? We should create an ongoing list of various courses of action we all can take to fight this
- Email/call/write on Facebook page of your City Councillor
- Email/call/write on Facebook page of candidates
- Write a letter to the editor of your favourite newspaper
- Create an online petition
- Create a Facebook group
Where a lot of the resistance to this ridiculous bylaw is going to need to come from is from club owners and those that work in the industry. They have the time and money to deal with this problem, and it directly and significantly impacts their business. It's time for various interested parties in the industry to work together and maybe form some sort of lobbying group or meaningful business association to the resist and counteract the bullying by City Council that has been going on for far too long.
It is with this bylaw that the Council has finally crossed the line. |
Excellent ideas. Lets make this an election issue. With social media and blogs etc at our hands, it wouldnt be that hard to do! |

Perhaps a new fb 'page' (not group) is required here - specifically to deal with these new bylaws.
(Jay, your group is a great start but I think this needs to be more focused otherwise it will get lost in the shuffle) |

Good points.
i might be able to change the group name to be more specific. I can also send out a group message detailing the problem.
1900 is a good base to grow from. Lets see if i can do it. |

| I can do it. Any suggestions on what you guys think the title should be? |

i must be alone in thinking that they passed this bylaw just so they could legally shut down certain clubs in the city :nervous:
like, why did they pick 200m2 for the allowed floor space? just seems so arbitrary.. why not 250m2? |
