Education Workers On ‘Illegal Strike’ Shut Schools DownCanada - On Friday, 55,000 Ontario education workers with CUPE walked off the job in an “illegal” strike. They were joined by OPSEU education workers, who also “illegally” walked off the job. Over 2.1 million students were out of school as school boards were forced to shut down schools.

"The Preppers Were Right All Along"That's the opinion of Amanda Little, writing at Bloomberg. Preppers, as the community of bunker builders and food hoarders is known, emerged during the Cold War as fears of nuclear holocaust drove some people to go to great lengths to prepare for survival in a burned-out world. But as the movement persisted over the decades, it has been mostly ignored by mainstream society, myself included, which came to view preppers mainly as paranoid radicals. So it's more than a little uncomfortable to confront the reality that this fringe industry is increasingly mainstream. In fact, in a... read more
