With the aim of contributing to building a worldwide common front against capitalism, austerity and war, a group of 30 chanting and sign waving residents of Guelph, Ontario rallied in front of City Hall on the early eve of April 30th to pay our respects and spread the word about our Labour history and International Workersâ Day! The rally's speakers list included members of: Fuerza/Puwersa, CUPE 3913, CAW Local 1917, Migrante Canada, Young Communist League Guelph, Guelph Student Mobilization Committee, and OPIRG Guelph. Guelph-based hip-hop folk talent Fellow Worker adds sweet spice to the mix. Excerpts of interviews with some of the speakers and rally attendees, particularly about what May Day means to them, are also included.
Rally organized by Fuerza/Puwersa, Migrant Matters Radio, CUPE 3913 and OPIRG
