Recently eighty Canadians including our own Grant Pachkowsky and Henry Dube of local 608 Pinawa, took part in a three day political action symposium at the Winpisinger educational & technology center in Hollywood, Maryland. They were there to develop their communication skills and ways to improve how to advocate their regional labour issues in the political spectrum. In a practice session members broke up into teams designing their own campaigns to bring their voices to bare advocating for their issues.
