Not a Bake Sale rally: Ryan Geake

The Conservative government of Alberta is trying to take back money they had committed to provide needed supports for people with disabilities in our province ($12 million in the last part of the year for People with Developmental Disabilities across Alberta). The Conservatives are endangering the welfare of some of our most vulnerable citizens at the same time they are giving billions of dollars to private oil and gas companies - the wealthiest industry in our province.

In Calgary, there was a public rally held to oppose the vicious funding cuts. Called the "Not a Bake Sale", the rally featured such items as a million-dollar cupcake (which, oddly enough, no one bought).

In this video, Ryan Geake, from the Calgary SCOPE Society, introduces the million dollar baked goods.
