Scope and content

File consists of agendas, meeting minutes, contact lists, news releases, memos, reports, protest lyric sheets, articles, newspaper clippings and some ephemeria related to the Metro Days of Action and other "fightback" protests organized by the North York Fights Back organizing committee. Metro Days of Action was a protest rally that lasted from October 22 to 26, 1996 and centred on community opposition to the healthcare, economic, social, transit and education policies of Premier Michael Harris' Conservative government. It was followed by smaller organized protests such as the Mega Fightback Rally, centred on the impending amalgamation of the Etobicoke, North York, East York, Scarborough and York with Metropolitan Toronto. Protesters from all constituent parts of the colloquially-dubbed "megacity" opposed the action because of the projected impact that amalgamation would have on their cities.
