We’ll talk to Allen from Yellow Vests Canada Exposed, a group which documents and exposes the white nationalist and neo-nazi elements in Canada’s Yellow Vest movement. We’ll talk about how this movement conflates the interests of massive oil corporations with the interests of the working class - and how the media has often conflated the two as well.

Then we’ll talk to Tannara Yelland, a student and freelance journalist who moved from Saskatchewan to Toronto and landed a job at Vice Canada in 2015, and subsequently kicked off the successful union drive at Vice Canada. We’ll talk about some of the barriers journalists face in participating in any sort of open quote political activity, including anti-fascist organizing, and why more journalists need to see themselves as part of the working class.
