Join Thunder Bay & District Injured Workers’ Support Group’s Tuesday weekly Zoom session from 10 a.m. to noon. Everyone welcome. Each session will wrap up with a focus on how we can take action on the topics of discussion.
Guest speaker: Harry Glasbeek – Law Professor at York University (retired) : “I have now sat in on several of your zoom meetings. I have been moved by the stories of brave, often, frustrating struggles that injured people have to fight in order to get even a modicum of social justice. I would like to present an argument that the workers’ compensation scheme is designed to force you to struggle. Its purpose, despite the way it presents itself, is not to look after hurt workers. To the contrary: it is designed to contain not only workers’ demands for monetary compensation but also to contain their just demands for greater autonomy over their lives.”
