On October 28, just over one week before Errol Black passed away, CCPA-mb organized a fundrasing brunch at the Fort Garry Hotel in Winnipeg in support of the Errol Black Chair in Labour Issues. Thanks to the Hotel for their generous donation we were able to raise a substantial contribution towards the Chair. Paul Moist, CUPE National President, was the main speaker for the event. Errol's life is a inspiration to Paul and to all in room. Watch the complete speech below.
CCPA not only does first-rate research; it also connects with the real world by putting powerful information in the hands of advocacy groups and by presenting intelligent, progressive ideas in the media. It is a BC jewel and I urge everyone to support it.
