Dec 2, 2025 - PYM Course on Imperialism

When: December 2nd to 11th, 6:30pm

From December 2-11, PYM will host a hybrid course on US imperialism at the People's Forum. This course, America's Forever Wars in the Middle East, will equip participants with an essential understanding of US imperialism, Israel's role within it, and its consequences for working people in the US and around the world.

Over the course of 4 sessions, we will illuminate how it is the imperialist system, and not just the ideological positions of any one politician in office, that keeps America at war and invested in genocide and the destabilization of the Middle East.

Without understanding the imperialist system that underlies the ongoing drive for war, and that has attempted to destroy the Palestinian people and those who stand with them, we cannot understand how to confront it.

Nov 29, 2025 - International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People

When: November 29th, 2pm
Where: Bay and Front St

The people of the world have stood with Palestine for over two years, and we're not stopping. Since the ceasefire announcement, Israel has massacred hundreds of Palestinians in Gaza, attacked the West Bank, and continued its abuse, torture and killing of Palestinian prisoners.

A two-way arms embargo is our movement's unchanged demand, the only guarantee of ending Israel's mass murder of Palestinians and systematic theft of our land.

Nov 29, 2025 - Rally to Stop Wage Theft

When: Saturday November 29th, 1pm
Where: Ministry of Labour, 400 University Ave

Join workers fighting for unpaid wages. Members of the Workers' Action Centre who are owed over $400,000 in unpaid wages will be calling on the government to do their job! Protect workers from employers who steal their wages.

Over 60% of workers face wage theft. Just in the last ten years, the Ministry of Labour assessed employers owed $200-million to workers. We know that this is just a small fraction of wages owed as many don't know how to file a complaint or just have to try to get another job so bills can get paid.

Sep 8, 2025 - Fighting To Win

When: Monday September 8th, 6pm

A Ten-Week Course for Union and Community Activists Facilitated by John Clarke, former organizer with the Ontario Coalition Against Poverty (OCAP).

Unions and social movements today are operating in a very challenging situation. There is great economic uncertainty, the worsening impact of climate change and a global situation marked by the growing threat of conflict and war. When workers strike or communities under attack take to the streets, it seems that victories are much much harder to win, and past gains more difficult to defend.

This course will grapple with these questions by looking at the forms of exploitation and oppression that exist in society and the means by which the power structure acts to limit and contain our struggles. The course will move towards a discussion of how our movements can overcome the factors that hold them back and to fight to win!
