Rob Ashton: Canada needs bold action for workers now

Rob Ashton, a candidate for the leadership of the federal NDP, says working people need better representation at the federal level. He calls for bold action such as affordable co-op housing for thousands. This is the second in RadioLabour's series covering the NDP leadership race. Plus: the LabourStart Report about union events. And singing: "A Woman's Place." RadioLabour is the international labour movement's radio service. It reports on labour union events around the world with a focus on unions in the developing world. It partners with rabble to provide coverage of news of interest to Canadian workers.
