hi scott. this event would be worth your time. i believe the same guy just gave a talk in hamilton. (if i share a name with him and he sounds more english than irish, that's him.)
i didn't catch all the talk, but it actually had little to do with labour and more to do with the struggles/issues that have happened to grab communities in ireland in the last few years. shannon air force base, for example, and a gas pipeline. labour activity in ireland seems to be in quite a rut at moment.
anyway, nothing spectacular, but lots of nuts and bolts about slogging away and actually getting somewhere, so inspiring just the same, and perhaps more useful than fleeting protest glamour.
Hi Red Toque! Yeah, I seem to remember seeing something somewhere about a Hamilton date on the tour, so it's probably the same person. It definitely sounds worthwhile!
