Collective Bargaining Rights – DOXA documentary Film Festival

I was a panelist at this year’s DOXA Documentary Film Festival and spoke at the screening of “We Are Wisconsin“, on May 8th. My co-panelist was Holly Page, BCGEU.

“We are Wisconsin” is a documentary about massive public protests against Governor Scott Walker’s attempts to do away with collective bargaining rights in the state of Wisconsin in 2011.

The film was presented as part of the Justice Forum, a program that offers the public a means of engaging directly with global justice issues through discussion of the films presented at the festival.

I presented my views on the film and spoke about the judicial and governmental attitudinal differences in Canada and the U.S. towards collective bargaining rights and unionized workers.

After the presentations, Holly and I answered questions from the audience about collective bargaining rights and issues facing unions.
