In Episode 29, we sit down with Marcus Peters, an activist and organizer based in Montreal, to discuss the social solidarity economy. We talk about what a co-op is, why they're important for the Left, and how they can give workers control over their work. We also discuss a new union Marcus has been organizing in the forestry sector. Finally, we get into the problem of wreckers — and how to organize effectively in spite of them.

Part of the series The Quest for the Offline Left.
