Hi everyone,
A few names for consideration for the round table discussions. These are all people who were involved in the Fight for $15 and Fairness campaign in Ontario that won some significant gains for workers.
I think these people could be added to the round tables for Poverty and Material existence and Labour as a social and political force
Pam Frache is the Ontario Coordinator for the Fight for $15 and Fairness and an organizer with the Workers’ Action Centre. Previously, Pam has worked for the Ontario Federation of Labour and the Canadian Federation of Students. She is a long-time Toronto-based social justice and labour activist.
Alia Karim is a PhD candidate in the faculty of environmental studies at York University. Her research interests include Marxist political economy, Canadian labour unions, Indigenous–settler alliances, labour–community coalitions, ecosocialism, and urban agriculture.

I'll add those, Julie.
Just to clarify: the file only listed potential keynote speakers who would not be jointly presented by the conference and the CCPA. (if we're able to co-present a "big name" expensive keynote speaker with CCPA, that'll be great). Perhaps I should organize the list of keynote speakers in the final version of the file into two categories: those possible only as conference-CCPA joint speakers and those whom the conference might be able to bring in without co-sponsorship.

Thanks David: I think Arundhati Roy is still under consideration as a keynote, isn't she? Also, please add Bill Fletcher Jr. to the keynote list. Here's his website: http://billfletcherjr.com/ And of course, we'll add Baldemar Velasquez Best, julie

Jim asked me to re-send this file to the listserv. It unintentionally omitted one name: Baldemar Velasquez (FLOC) as a possible keynote speaker.

Hi all,
Here is the list of names proposed thus far that I agreed to compile. Apologies for any omissions. Some people listed under one roundtable might be suitable for another roundtable too.
For those who weren't at Saturday's meeting: we have until Dec. 31 to propose other names for consideration.

Hi everyone.
Enclosed please find a bio for Phillip Jennings, the General Secretary of the global union, UNI, I mentioned him briefly on Saturday. I have met him but do not know him well, I have seen him speak and believe he would do a great job as a keynote speaker for our conference.
Regards,
Paul

Hi again. Apologies for the confusion. To be clear, the formal listserv is being created. However, I got the impression on Saturday that some people wanted to move on things, so I decided to forward the most up-to-date list I have.

Hi Paul,
I've received your e-mails but I don't see a listserv address (e.g. 1919conference-l@umanitoba.camailto:1919conference-l@umanitoba.ca)
In my view, we need a real listserv on the U of M system, not a string of addresses.

Hi all.
You may already have received a version of this morning, but I was having trouble with Krishna's email. Things are looking pretty tidy on my end, but there are a range of email account types (e.g. mts, gmail, cupe), so there may be some variance in encryption, etc.
