Lake Champlain-Richelieu River Study Board Public Meeting 07/11/2017

The International Lake Champlain-Richelieu River Study Board hosts a public meeting to receive public comment on its Draft Work Plan.

The Study Board appointed by the International Joint Commission undertakes the work outlined in the 2013 Plan of Study Option B, to more fully explore the causes, impacts, risks, and solutions to mitigate flooding in the Lake Champlain-Richelieu River basin.

The study’s main objectives are to:

Develop and recommend the implementation of a bi-national, real-time flood forecasting and flood inundation mapping system to prepare for and mitigate the impacts of floods.

Recommend measures - structural and non-structural - to mitigate flooding and the impact of flooding throughout the basin.

Determine public, community and stakeholder desirability of the proposed measures to mitigate flooding and the impact of flooding throughout the basin.

The public comment period begins Tuesday, June 27, 2017 and continues until Friday, July 28, 2017. Members of the public are encouraged to submit comments on the Work Plan, either online at www.participateijc.org/champlain-richelieu or by email at ChamplainRichelieu@ottawa.ijc.org. Additionally, members of the public are encouraged to attend the public meetings and chat with Study Board members.

The International Joint Commission is committed to engaging the public in the Lake Champlain-Richelieu River study on an ongoing basis through the Study Board’s Public Advisory Group (PAG). The PAG will be binational and members will represent various areas of interest and regions across the Lake Champlain-Richelieu River basin.

No One is Illegal: The Case for Open Borders 04/13/2017

Trump’s insane and cruel war on immigrants has come to Vermont with a vengeance targeting immigrant community leaders and activists to intimidate isolate and marginalize our immigrant communities. The abductions in Vermont have matched the administration’s policy across the country targeting sanctuary cities and regions where immigrant communities have been able to fight back against the mass deportations of the past two presidential administrations.

The limited debate between Democrats and Republicans has been restricted to how many immigrants should be deported and how long the border wall should be. It hasn’t always been this way. In 2006 when immigrants took to the streets in mass strikes against deportations a movement was born with slogans like “No one is illegal!” and “Amnesty now!”

Their plan is to terrorize immigrants into being a silent and marginalized workforce able to be shipped out whenever these workers demand better wages, hours or conditions. As socialists we argue for open borders and free international movement for all workers.

Join a discussion with the International Socialist Organization on how we can defend immigrant communities from Trump’s raids and win a world where immigrants and all workers can live, work and organize freely without artificial boundaries separating and terrorizing us.

Speaker: Todd Chretien is a member of the International Socialist Organization, and a frequent contributor to Socialist Worker and the International Socialist Review. Todd has written extensively on Latin American politics. He is also the editor of State and Revolution by V. Lenin and Eye Witnesses to the Russian Revolution anthology (Haymarket Books, forthcoming).
