Unpacking the People's Party of Canada and Resisting the Far Right

Amid controversy, Mohawk College is hosting People’s Party of Canada leader Maxime Bernier and infamous alt-right personality Dave Rubin this Sunday.

In response in order to inform public debate, the OPSEU Local 240 Political Action Committee are hosting a panel presentation and facilitated discussion.

The panel will address the far-right agenda behind the People's Party of Canada (PPC) and its relation to islamophobia, climate change denial and corporate interests. The panel will also address the need to confront and resist the rise of the far right, both in Hamilton and across Canada.

The OPSEU event runs

Sunday, September 29th, 6:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m.
