The Take
A film by Avi Lewis and Naomi Klein
In the lead up to the Workers Without Bosses event on Jan 23rd at the KWCCSJ we will be screening \\"The Take\\"

The Trailer
In suburban Buenos Aires\, thirty unemployed auto-parts workers walk into their idle factory\, roll out sleeping mats and refuse to leave.
All they want is to re-start the silent machines. But this simple act - The Take - has the power to turn the globalization debate on its head.

Location\: KWCCSJ (63 Courtland E)
Admission\: Free
Time\: 6\:30pm
Date\: Jan 23rd
The response of the popular classes to the Argentine economic crisis of December 2001 and lessons for anarchists in Canada - a Québec and Ontario speaking tour presented by theUnion Communiste Libertaire (UCL) and Common Cause.
We are going through one of the worst economic crises in the history of capitalism and the answers provided by the state and its lackeys are illusory. In addition\, faced with this impasse\, our leaders are trying to shift the entire burden of the crisis to workers and their communities.

The World According to Monsanto
Thursday January 28
7pm
KWCCSJ
63 Courtland Ave. E Kitchener
With 17\,500 employees\, a 2006 sales figure of $7.5 billion and operations in 46 countries\, Monsanto is the world leader in genetically modified organisms (GMOs)\, as well as one of the most controversial corporations in industrial history. Since its founding in 1901\, the company has faced trial after trial due to the toxicity of its products\, including polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs)\, polystyrene\, devastating herbicides like Agent Orange\, used during the Vietnam war\, and bovine growth hormones\, which are yet unauthorised in Canada and banned in Europe.
