Tanya is the Ontario Regional Organizer for the Public Service Alliance of Canada. Anna is an organizer with the International Federation of Professional and Technical Engineers and an executive member of the Asian Canadian Labour Alliance.\nThrough this interactive teach-in, we will consider questions like: How do you talk to co-workers about conditions at work? What role can unions play? How do you approach unions about organizing your workplace? All workers deserve justice in their workplaces, so come learn how to fight for it. We will consider different approaches to worker organizing and go through the nuts and bolts of how this is done. You will hear from experienced organizers about how and why workers choose to unionize or otherwise come together more informally to challenge injustices in the workplace.\nIf you have questions, please contact Prof. Katherine Nastovski at nastov@yorku.ca.\n
