Welcome back to Inside the Village, a one-of-a-kind podcast where all news is local — and no topic is off-limits.
On the latest episode, we explore the escalating labour war between the Ford government and 55,000 of Ontario's education workers, including librarians, secretaries and custodians.
Paul Gray, an associate professor of labour studies at Brock University, helps us make sense of the political rhetoric on both sides, and what it all means for students and their frustrated parents.
Also on the program: a big welcome to the latest addition to our Village, BurlingtonToday.com.
Launched in April, Inside the Village is a news and current affairs podcast that provides a weekly window into some of the best local journalism from across Village Media's chain of Ontario newsrooms. The program also explores bigger-picture issues that impact people across the province.
Every episode is available on this news site /insidethevillage. If you prefer the audio version, it is available wherever you find your favourite podcasts.
