SUMMARY:What's a general strike? Can we make it happen? - Toronto Spring Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Join Spring’s Toronto chapter for a discussion of key political issues as well as socialist strategy and tactics. The rapid escalation that took place from Bill 28’s introduction on October 31 to its defeat just one week later shows that labour is actually capable of harnessing its resources and energy on extremely short notice. In this case\, it had no choice: the pressure from education workers\, rank-and-file members in other unions\, and the wider public pushed the leadership into action. The existential threat of Bill 28 tipped the balance. \nThe question now is how could the labour movement start planning a similar escalation–for the moment these conditions emerge again (which could be sooner than we expect)–to defeat Ford on everything else we’ve been fighting for: reversing his privatization agenda\, defending public services\, repealing Bill 124\, protecting the Greenbelt\, defending labour standards\, winning a $20 minimum wage and Paid Sick Days\, and ending the misclassification of gig workers. \nThis is an in-person meeting at 720 Spadina Ave (near Spadina station)\, Room #202. We ask everyone to wear a mask. Doors will be open for light refreshments at 5:30pm and the meeting starts at 6:00pm.

SUMMARY:Red October: A Conference of Socialist Ideas in Action
DESCRIPTION:The world is burning\, public services are being gutted\, the far-right is emboldened and working-class people are struggling to make ends meet. Now more than ever\, we need to join together and strategize to build working class unity and power. We need to fight for a socialist alternative. \nSpring is proud to announce “Red October: A Conference of Socialist Ideas in Action\,” our first ever conference taking place October 13-15 at the Toronto Metropolitan University Student Centre in downtown Toronto (55 Gould Street). \nThe conference will include a dozen sessions on topics such as building a fighting labour movement\, the relationship between the state and revolution\, why we organize the working class\, socialism and elections\, and more. Be sure to catch Saturday night’s “Nuit Rouge\,” a cabaret-style social event featuring political performances\, music\, and art! And on Sunday we will be hosting a meeting for labour activists to strategize about building a fighting labour movement. \nAll are welcome! Full details and program forthcoming.

SUMMARY:Spring Reading Group - Palestine: The Case for Revolution
DESCRIPTION:Join Spring on Sunday\, November 5 at 7pm ET / 4pm PT / 8pm AT over Zoom for a reading group discussion on Anne Alexander’s article\, “Ending apartheid in Palestine: The case for a revolutionary strategy.” \nWith the Palestinian working class having to organize under constant violence for decades at the hands of the perpetually funded and armed Israeli occupation apparatus\, and with sources of Israeli funding and machinery not directly dependent upon the exploitation of Palestinian labour\, Alexander argues that fighting back against apartheid will require the revitalization and cooperation of revolutionary movements across the Arab world — not to forsake the Palestinian liberation movement\, but to expand and deepen it. \nClick here to register for the reading group\, and click here to access the reading.

SUMMARY:Building mass action for Palestine solidarity:  Lessons from the UK
DESCRIPTION:Despite vicious attacks from the media and politicians\, Palestine solidarity has become a mass movement in the UK. Multiple demonstrations in London have drawn out over 250\,000 people. The November 11th march had close to a million people attend. Large actions are continuously happening across the UK demanding the government support a ceasefire.  \nShabbir Lakha is an officer with the Stop the War Coalition\, which is playing a key role in organizing the movement. Join Spring for a discussion with Shabbir about how Stop the War and the Palestine Solidarity Campaign have strategically built a mass movement for Palestine.   \nThis meeting is on Zoom.
