Prominent leaders in Toronto’s Black community Hon Jean Augustine, Hon Zanana Akande, Dr Winston LaRose (Mr Jane and Finch), Kofi Achampong, Director of Government Affairs & Public Policy for Foundation for Black Communities, and several others in leadership will have a press conference to address the discouraging and concerning treatment of over 100 Black African refugees in Toronto, Canada living and camping on the sidewalk outside the shelter at 129 Peter St.
Torontonians are in shock about the continuous poor treatment and consideration for the refugees. They are demanding that the government take some immediate action to provide a temporary indoor accommodation which all levels of government work on a long-term solution to this issue.
The press conference will commence at 10:30 am.
