Agenda to follow.

Let’s return Toronto and other cities in Ontario to the thriving, prolific animal activism centres they once were.

Join with other like-minded and like-hearted people to chat, brainstorm, and strategize about standing up for the animals!

After each session, attendees are encouraged to participate in a street action to put your new skills and energy into practice (this is totally voluntary, no pressure). And sometimes homework will be assigned and due for discussion at the next scheduled meeting.

Some attend one week but can’t come to the next one…attend when you can.

Whether you’re a seasoned advocate or someone new to the scene, this is a judgment-free, no-pressure environment that welcomes every idea and supports every comfort level.

Because each person is uniquely wired and different tactics resonate with different people, there’s no one foolproof form of activism…it can be effective, without being complicated or elaborate. And it doesn’t have to restrict itself to traditional methods like street marches with loud chants or holding up graphic imagery on a street corner (although both of these can be quite impactful…and often feel really good!). Instead, standing up for animals can take on a variety of unique forms — almost as varied as the individuals taking part and the members of the public receiving the message. Every small action contributes to creating a world that respects and protects animals.

As the McKnight Building (600 Bay) is a heritage building boasting one of the last attendant-operated elevators in the city of Toronto, the building is often not accessible on weekends. Our apologies in advance for this inconvenience.
