The 1995 People's Summit (P7)

** From the Ground Up! **

NOT INVITED TO THE G-7? . . . THEN COME TO THE P7!

The People's Summit was a series of events from June 11 to 18, 1995 organized in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada to show that there are alternatives to the G-7 Economic Summit. Events were organized and presented by various communities, groups, nonprofit organizations and concerned citizens. 'On the day' the events were diverse, positive, challenging, *fun* .... OPEN TO EVERYONE .... and very well attended.
