Seems to me that if a company, like Air Canada, is providing a service that is so critical that its employees must be denied the right to strike, either the company should be nationalized or there should be a public option.

REVIEW: The 1937 Oshawa GM strike showed how radical organizing and international solidarity could transform the labour movement. Tony Leah’s new history reminds us that the victories workers take for granted today were won through militant class struggle. canadiandimension.com/articles/view/…

It should be news that a major Canadian union has highlighted the courage of Palestinian journalists and condemned Israel's ongoing genocide.

A UN inquiry has confirmed that Israel is committing genocide in Gaza. The Foreign Secretary must come to Parliament, now, and explain why the government is still - shamefully - providing military support to Israel.

Woke up to news of three horrible terrorist attacks: 1) An assailant killed 2 at a Synagogue in Manchester 2) The Israeli government murdered 45 in Gaza. 3) The Israeli government murdered 2 in Lebanon. The 1st terrorist was killed. The remaining terrorists are still at large.

UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 5: Vito Marcantonio There are many who dismiss our vision for New York as impossible. To them, I say we need look only to our past for proof of how we can shape the future. Tomorrow is Election Day. And this is the final Until It's Done of our campaign.

Francesca Albanese: “I'm the first UN person to be sanctioned. A US sanctioned person risks to be arrested and to be subjected to very heavy fines.. I'm Treated Almost Like Osama Bin Laden” She is paying the price for speaking the truth!

“In China, the rich people don't dictate government policies” China does not overthrow foreign governments to destabilize countries nor does it invade to steal the resources. It's rise is based on peaceful development and mutual growth. A Bitter Reality!
