Calling all Social Justice lovers to come and support SFPIRG at their annual AGM.  Last year there was an organized group of haters that unexpectedly distrupted the AGM and shut down democratic discussions on by-law changes, this year we are calling on all our supporters to come out and show your support and love for social and enviro justice at SFU and beyond...
