Marc Bélanger explores when smelter workers in Trail fought for their right to a union and a collective agreement in the 1940s. Bélanger interviews author Ron Verzuh about his new book ‘Smelter Wars’ (published by University of Toronto Press), sharing the story and what lessons can be learned from it today.

More people are reading rabble.ca than ever and unlike many news organizations, we have never put up a paywall – at rabble we’ve always believed in making our reporting and analysis free to all, while striving to make it sustainable as well. Media isn’t free to produce. rabble’s total budget is likely less than what big corporate media spend on photocopying (we kid you not!) and we do not have any major foundation, sponsor or angel investor. Our main supporters are people and organizations — like you. This is why we need your help. You are what keep us sustainable.
