Thank Sarah Ryan for taking this video.

Russell Diabo, member of the Mohawk Nation at Kahnawake, Editor First Nations Strategic Bulletin, and First Nations Policy Analyst will be speaking this Friday on January 25 at 10 am on issues affecting Indigenous Peoples and meeting with labour and community allies.

Given the important developments around the Defenders of the Land, the Idle No More movement, the Chief Theresa Spence's sacred hunger strike, and the upcoming Indigenous-Canada-Quebec social forum General Assembly this weekend in Ottawa on Algonquin Territory, this is a timely event to hear from a person on the front lines of Indigenous struggles today

Co-sponsored by the Canadian Union of Postal Workers (CUPW), the Indigenous Peoples Solidarity Movement Ottawa (IPSMO), Public Service Alliance of Canada (PSAC) , the Canadian Union of Public Employees (CUPE) and the National Union of Public and general Employees (NUPGE)
