Our annual labour issue has stories about the risky business of sex work in the gig economy; airport workers organizing in Canada's biggest workplace; how a Canadian garment company is fleecing women maquila workers in Honduras; the reinstatement of Canada's prison farms; a planned economy for a just transition; Alberta's public-sector unions rising to meet the challenge of a UCP government; and student journalists reviving the labour beat. Plus a book review, comic, and interview with writing contest judges.
