Building The Working Class Movement
January 29, 2011 to January 30, 2011
The Labour Committee of the Greater Toronto Workers' Assembly (GTWA) is organizing a conference where activists can come together to talk about the attacks on the working-class in every dimension of our lives, reframe the public discussion and launch a united activist network of workers from all sectors, unions and precarious workers, new immigrants and non-unionized workers to mobilize a new kind of working class movement.
The conference is a chance to come together to build the fight-back we've all been waiting for, but which will never happen unless we make it happen. We need a new kind of fighting working-class movement - a movement that builds across workplaces, communities and unions and the non-unionized majority of the working class.
The event is open Saturday, January 29 from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m and Sunday, January 30 from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
Registration Cost to be paid at conference - sliding scale with suggested rates - $20 waged, $10 unwaged/student or pay what you can.
