An interview with poet, letter carrier and Canadian Union of Postal Workers member Ron Romanowski on his new book of poetry, Insurrection, a commemorative anthology of poems dealing with the legacy of the 1919 Winnipeg General Strike. In 1919, Winnipeg shook the world with an event that polarized the city forever and touches the lives of Canadians to this day. In this, his third poetry collection, Ron uses the imagery of spring and its symbolism of change and resistance to create a lyrical representation of the Strike's impact and a gateway to common experience with the strikers.
