As we pass day 12 of the Canada Post strike, I happened to dig up some old CUPW pins my mom had during the rotating strikes lasting 19 days in 1987. She has a lot of fascinating stories about labour action in this country.

Alright Vancouver, I saw an owl in East Van recently. I'm hearing from friends and co-workers seeing them. Is this normal or is there something going on? Who's seeing them?
