On August 6, we embarked on an 18-day road trip from Edmonton to Winnipeg with one purpose: to collect as many stories as possible from PSAC members throughout the Prairie Region.
In a matter of weeks, we interviewed 43 people in eight different cities across three provinces, racked up 3,000+ kilometres in mileage, and collected over 2,700 minutes of footage.
Today, we're releasing the 3.5 minute trailer as a preview of what's to come. The official videos will be released at varying intervals over the next year under a variety of themes from human rights to political action and more. Each video will be an important resource for us to teach members about our history and build solidarity.
The first video, "The Value of Unions", will be released on September 27, 2013 and will feature members from across the Prairies sharing their personal experiences and union memories. In the meantime, watch the trailer below and share it with your friends and colleagues.
