Billionaires VS All of Us: A national webinar

from Council of Canadians · host Council Of Canadians

While many of us spent the summer relaxing with family (and trying not to choke on wildfire smoke), Canada’s corporate elite have been designing an all-out assault on workers, First Nations, migrants and the environment—and Mark Carney’s Liberals are getting ready to carry it out. Quadrupling military spending and secretly sending arms to Israel. Slashing public services in what the Prime Minister himself is calling an “austerity” budget. Pushing pipelines and mines over the objections of Indigenous peoples. Clamping down on migrant rights, ordering striking workers back to the job and cozying up to Trump.  Is this really the kind of “nation building” Canadians thought they would get when they elected Mark Carney? This webinar, featuring anti-poverty organizer John Clarke, peace activist Rachel Small, professor and researcher Shiri Pasternak and labour organizer Mostafa Henaway, will look at how Carney is fast-tracking a billionaires-first agenda that will only make the rich even richer – and how all of us can fight back.
