gateway journals

I'll give a one year subscription to the CCPA Monitor, the journal of left-wing think tank and source of unlimited goodness Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives, and to Our Schools/Our Selves, their education journal, to anyone who wants either or both of them.

I have subscribed to the Monitor for a while now and I dig the articles in there, with lots of hard data about how we're being fornicated upon, along with some editorials and a kind of modern-day Devil's Dictionary. You may have heard of Steven Staples, Armine Yalnizyan and Andrew Jackson; they do research for the CCPA. Yalnizyan in particular has been seen in the Star's pages, and battling right-wing economists on TVO's Studio 2 and The Agenda; I have a soft spot for her alternative budgets. The Monitor will make you pissed off and primed for battle with choice words and numbers as your weapons. Get your free subscription now. :]

ETA: There is no current limit on how many people I am giving subscriptions to.

What's the education journal like? Examples of content?

By browsing the link above, I have found a whole issue's PDF file, and various articles from other issues...

I don't know that publication myself, I've just been sticking to the Monitor, but the CCPA has some pretty cool research usually, some of which I've used in polisci.

I'll need your postal address when you decide you want it. :P
