A general assembly was held in Ottawa in January for the Peoples’s Social Forum, with representation from First Nations, people of colour, Quebec, student movements, unions, environmental groups and others.
Organized labour was well represented at this assembly and the OFL’s Antoni Shelton strongly articulated that labour rights must be central to the process.
The Ontario Common Front will host a workshop that will showcase the People’s Agenda. Affiliates are encouraged to organize buses for your participants in the Peoples’ Social Forum. Accommodations are available.
