On Sunday April 24 Solidarity Halifax organized a public meeting to discuss the strike at the Halifax Chronicle Herald, currently dragging into its fourth month. Striking Chronicle Herald news editor Pam Sword, Saint Mary’s labour professor Judy Haiven and the Halifax Examiner’s own Tim Bousquet spoke to a standing room-only crowd.

Examineradio is happy to present the audio of this roundtable discussion.

Also, rich dude demands city council’s full attention. Council complies. Then demands a cruller. Coun. Steve Adams makes a run to nearby Tim Horton’s.
