The Liberal government has made huge cuts to the health, education, community service and more. And they have refused to talk about it or meet with people. 

So now we're bringing the people to them! 

The Liberal Party is holding their annual convention at the Membertou Trade & Convention Centre and we'll be there to welcome them. 

They have cut grants and funding for mental health, taken dental coverage away from 11,000 children, frozen the health care budget and are now looking to privatize home care. 

And that's just one department. 

They have also:
-Frozen social assistance and housing allowances
-Deregulated tuition for graduate and out-of-province students
-Cut funding to the Canadian National Institue for the Blind
-Cut funding for the Metro food bank
-Refused to provide anything support or funding for childcare 
-Cut the film tax credit
-Given $22 million to RBC
