Back in the USSR marks Remembrance Day by paying tribute to the victims of imperialist war: from 21st Century Syria to the Western Front 1914-1918. Imperialism still consumes countless young lives each year, and it is this horrific fact combined with the memory of those who have struggled to change it and to create a future of peace and international solidarity that drives me to utterly condemn the militaristic agenda of the Canadian Government and its propaganda.

Norman Richmond gives the backstory to the great Aretha Franklin, explaining that her father, a minister, was an early champion for civil rights in Detroit, leading marches and bringing political struggle into his sermons.

Oshawa local 222 passed a resolution objecting on constitutional grounds. The matter went to the Public Review Board where local 222's appeal was upheld. But matters roll on and the Unifor Canadian Council has met to affirm breaking with the CLC and looking to raid more unions. Their Canadian flag is looking more and more like a skull and cross-bones.
