Speakout

Speakout

Hosting a speak-out, members of the community were invited to express themselves in response to the so-called debate on reasonable accommodations. Anger and frustration were common sentiments, as were expressions of the daily struggles to integrate in the face of pervasive systemic racism. One woman, through tears, explained that her credentials were not recognized when she arrived to Canada and that her efforts to integrate through schooling have been thwarted by racist instructors and employers.

There is a crisis in the media in the West. The Murdoch wannabes are swallowing more and more of what we used to call the free press. There are honourable exceptions, and a beacon among them is The Dominion which, in its coverage of its community, of Canada and the wider world, is a rare, authentic independent voice -- of people not of power. I salute The Dominion.

--John Pilger, journalist, author, filmmaker

About the Dominion

The Dominion is a monthly paper published by an incipient network of independent journalists in Canada. It aims to provide accurate, critical coverage that is accountable to its readers and the subjects it tackles. Taking its name from Canada's official status as both a colony and a colonial force, the Dominion examines politics, culture and daily life with a view to understanding the exercise of power.
