It would be good if we knew something about Mr. Rae, just to be consistent. We did that for others on the panels. I do trust Rhonda’s judgement but I guess I have become a bit of a rule freak and I’d prefer that we proceed, as much as possible, in a consistent manner.

Should I extend a round table invite to John Rae, then? For the second round table? Let me know and I’ll send in the AM as directed. I think it’s a very, very good idea.

I also wanted to confirm that we have someone on the round tables able to speak to issues people with disabilities face. I know this was raised in past meetings - can we confirm this is the case (need to know for SSHRC & bc it’s an important issue to address in our context)? If no, then I have a name that might work.

Subject: [1919-Conference] Responses to Proposals
Hi all,
I’m going to contact those who made proposals and tell them, for the most part, that they have been accepted and we will get back to them closer to the time of the conference with the schedule and any other guidelines.
For those who were not there, we returned to the issue late in the meeting. There were 3 proposals that we were debating: Mancini, Fairbairn, and Bako. We decided to find a place for Mancini in one of the other panels, and to reject Fairbairn’s proposal. On Bako, we decided that I would contact him and suggest that he play some other role in the conference. Shortly afterwards, I was talking to my daughter Adrie, who some of you know (she works for Workers United in Toronto) who had just returned from the Labor Notes conference in Chicago. She was quite keen that we have a session on young workers and said that she would be willing to participate and/or to find someone. I think she has a point that we do want to have something addressing young workers as it would be attractive to the MFL Young Members Assembly. I won’t contact Bako immediately, but let me know what you think about constructing a session addressing young workers.
Also, after the deadline I was contacted by Myer Siemiatycki at Ryerson, who missed the deadline and wanted to see if he could still apply. He was a contributor to Craig Heron, ed., The Workers’ Revolt in Canada, 1917-1925. He is interested in presenting on the Mathers’ Commission that was investigating industrial relations in 1919. I said that I would ask the committee if we would accept a proposal from him.
