The city has formally recognized our occupation and agreed to our terms for community consultation. This victory belongs to all 228 signers who stood up against this economic status quo. Keep your eyes on the local council to ensure they follow through on these new promises.
This is a petition to demonstrate the support of the existence of the "Occupy" social movement that is occurring globally.
Participants living in Grand Parade Square (which we are trying to refer to as K'jipuktuk Common in honour of the Mi'kmaq First Nations who originally inhabited the Halifax Peninsula) as well as the general public would be well-to-do to have a general sense of how much community support is out there. There is a lot of support that isn't immediately visible.
In signing this petition you are demonstrating that you support the movement that resists the corrupt hierarchy of the decision-making powers of our society, that we should be consulted as communities before decision making processes are engaged in, and that the global financial inequality and the economic mismanagement be brought to an end.
The people at the Grand Parade are holding the line but they need to know you have their back. Post this link on your Facebook wall today. Send a direct email to your local representative demanding they recognize the legitimacy of this movement.

Finally people are standing up for themselves. Tired of the 1 percent calling all the shots while the rest of us struggle to pay rent.

HALIFAX STANDS WITH YOU! It is about time we had a seat at the table instead of just being ignored by the people in charge.
