James Irwin

James’ songs reflect his meditative, monkish kinda way of life. He’s highly ritualized, level, meticulous, focused. He leans to the past and loss; loves water, explorers, ideas like levitation, silver light, and slack water; long, drawn out, warm sounds. In 2012 he released a first album as himself, Western Transport. Hear it at //jamesirwin.ca

With a presentation from producers of the grassroots radio project Migrant Voices.

Doors at 8 pm. Concert at 9 pm.

Following the revelations, community organizations and advocates demanded concrete... Read more →

While the change will help some families, it leaves intact a cruel policy that forces some of Canada’s poorest and most vulnerable residents to pay for essential care they cannot afford. The IFHP provides temporary coverage to resettled refugees and asylum seekers waiting to qualify... Read more →

Building Community Power Against Deportations

On Sunday, August 2, the Comité d’action de Parc-Extension (CAPE) and the Immigrant Workers Centre (IWC-CTI) organized a workshop on the rights of migrants facing deportation.
