Can I Have A Word?
Thursday December 1st, 2022 with Bob LeDrew
BEST OF: Black Lives STILL Matter, with Robin Browne of the 613/819 Black Hub

It's the last month for me at CKCU, and given what happened at the November meeting of the Ottawa Police Services Board, it seemed appropriate to revisit the conversation Bob and Hera had with Robin Browne in February 2021

Public Sector Unions are a replica of the Public they serve. Because they are also clients. They poll the same, vote the same, etc. They can make good change. Fred Upshaw was 1st. black President of a major Canadian Union, OPSEU. I worked on many of his campaigns. Then Leah Casselman's, 1st Woman Pres. They were great Leaders. I learned make Allies...& listen, hard. Peace. Enjoy your time & Thanks for the Good Work.
