Infrastructures to support the unemployed, some of which date back to the establishment of Toronto first poor house to the 1830s, are now being threatened and dismantled by the city to make room for Toronto's more affluent residents. Where will the unemployed, homeless, and poor residents go? The tour explores how Toronto's "skid row" came to be established in East Downtown Toronto. What has been the relationship of Toronto poor with Toronto wealthy residents over the last one-seventy-years? What happened to the slums of Cabbagetown and how are they related to Regent Park, Canada's largest social housing complex? There is also long history organizing and militant resistance in East Downtown Toronto by the unemployed and the homeless dating back to the 1890s. How are these struggles connected to later unemployed battles of the 1930s and 1990s? This walking tour is led by Gaetan Heroux, who is a member of OCAP, a long time organizer in the neighborhood, and a people's historian. 27 min. video</span></font></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" face="'Times New Roman'"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px;"><a href="http://www.socialistproject.ca/leftstreamed/ls208.php">http://www.socialistproject.ca/leftstreamed/ls208.php</a></span></font></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" face="'Times New Roman'"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px;"><br></span></font></div></div></div></div></div></div><div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" face="'Times New Roman'"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px;">---------------------------------------<br>---------------------------------------</span></font></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" face="'Times New Roman'"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px;"><br></span></font></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" face="'Times New Roman'" size="5" color="#009e48"><b>Keep Central Tech’s Field Green!</b></font></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" face="'Times New Roman'"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px;">Downtown west residents are fighting the Toronto District School Board’s deal to privatize the playing field and running track at Central Technical School (i.e. outside of school hours).

Triggered by a 9.0 magnitude earthquake, the Fukushima Dai-Ichi nuclear disaster revealed nuclear power’s vulnerability and danger. Three years later more than 100,000 people are still displaced, likely never to return to their homes, and 300 tonnes of radioactive water stream into the Pacific Ocean daily while technicians gingerly remove the used fuel rods from elevated pools before another earth quake topples the damaged structure.

One of the most successful has been the stunning achievement in Seattle WA. The campaign around the minimum wage in Seattle has shown how the power of street politics can be integrated with socialist electoral politics to mobilize people and get things done. The Occupy movement didn’t just produce community and union activists, it brought to the fore organizations like Socialist Alternative and their Council candidate Kshama Sawant. In the November Council election, Sawant took on a well known Democratic Party incumbent to win the seat, getting 93,000 votes city wide. The main focus of her election campaign was the demand for the $15 minimum wage. Two weeks later in the Seattle community of Seatac, people voted through a referendum (proposition 1) to support the $15 proposal. There are lessons to be learned for the left in Toronto, especially in the area of orienting towards electoral politics.<br></span></font></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" face="'Times New Roman'"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px;"><a href="http://beitzatoun.org/event/fight-for-the-minimum-wage/">http://beitzatoun.org/event/fight-for-the-minimum-wage/</a><br></span></font></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" face="'Times New Roman'"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px;"><br></span></font></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" face="'Times New Roman'"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px;">---------------------------------------<br>---------------------------------------<br></span></font></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" face="'Times New Roman'"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px;"><br></span></font></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" face="'Times New Roman'"><font class="Apple-style-span" size="5" color="#1975c7"><b>Webinar: How we can cut Transport Emissions by 50%<br></b></font><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px;"><br></span></font></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" face="'Times New Roman'"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px;">With Todd Litman, Victoria B.C.</span><br><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px;">Tues.

Learn about the closed-loop cradle-to-cradle waste use approach we are applying to our production systems, and how we up-cycle cacao shells, cacao char, paper towels, and food scraps into our worm composters to create healthy urban soil ecosystems and to grow roof-top spices and herbs for use in our chocolate. Attendees will participate in demonstrations on our roasting, winnowing, biochar, and grow light operations, as well as hands-on activities such as sifting cacao shells, mixing ChocoSoil blends, seed starting, and setting up worm composters.
