Description

Draw the Line isn't just a cross-country day of action on September 20th, 2025; activists involved have been building the structure and finding a basis of unity to bring together the movements in Canada who are all fighting the same thing - Capital.

Three organizers from Draw the Line join the studio to talk about the work that went into connecting groups big and small, and finding enough common ground to build around something bigger.

Hear about their five key demands, how they plan on turning this mobilization into sustainable mass organizing and what it means to "grow globally while acting locally".

Guests:

• Willo Prince, Indigenous Climate Action
• Karen Cocq, Exec Director, Migrant Workers Alliance for Change; and,
• Nathan Prier, President Canadian Association of Professional Employees (CAPE).

Hosted by: Jessa McLean
