“… most people don’t recognize what poverty costs us… Over the last 30 years, even when the economy has been at it best, we still had 10% of the population living in poverty. With the recent recession, the numbers are higher… one in three people living in poverty have jobs and an education… Politicians need to hear from constituents that poverty is an issue and something needs to be done”… Kleinsmith has shared the petition with a number of her contacts and hopes others can do the same. Bridges has a copy of it online — www.bridgeschc.ca — that can be printed.
