Poster the Nation for Housing - Vancouver

We need to take back housing from wealthy and powerful real estate investors and landlords – and make housing for everyone. That's why, this October, people across the country will distribute thousands of posters and flyers to spread the word about Leadnow's national campaign for affordable housing. Click here for a link to the flyer/poster.

Join us!
