The Canadian Union of Public Employees Local 500 — Winnipeg — has created a video to express the city’s widespread horror at the mass privatisation campaign looming over its political landscape. Winnipeg has long been a bastion of progressive labour politics, and is riven by the new prairie politics emanating from the Tar Sands and its randroid Tories: “Using innovative stop graphic animation, Winnipeg animators Christian and Sean Procter tell the story of Winnipeg’s proud history and the negative impact privatizing public services has on our city.”
