PSAC BC organized a rally to protest cutbacks to federal government departments September 29, 2011 at Harbour Centre in downtown Vancouver. Members distributed "Standing Up For Public Services Buttons" and invited the public to sign a petition calling for the government to:
• Reverse plans to cut jobs and public services by $4-billion.
• Maintain and improve federal public services to all Canadians.
• Reverse corporate tax cuts as a cost effective way to reduce the deficit.
