Reading the life of Sid Ryan, "outspoken Irish expat," is to experience the highs and lows of the modern Canadian labour movement--Sid has been in on and often initiated much of the action and most of the good.
Remember his leading the OFL in the fight known by the slogan: "Kill a worker, go to jail." Sid's story is to show how it's done, from raising minimum wage in Ontario to solidarity with Palestine and Venezuela.
The book is a short course.
