The Auntie Dialogues is a special journal issue of "The Auntie Is In" podcast scripts. This decolonial approach to research dissemination is aimed at layering Indigenous storytelling alongside written literature. In the sixteen episodes presented in Season One, Dr. Paulina Johnson, or the Auntie, bridges her approach with an “Auntie” mentality to address misconceptions and stereotypes about Indigenous peoples and cultures and better inform listeners of Indigenous realities. The podcast does not solely look at damage or deficit but also the vibrancy of Nehiyawak culture including knowledge relating to creation stories, traditions, ceremonies, and much more. Dr. Johnson is Nêhiyaw or Paskwâw-iyiniw, four-spirit or a prairie person, from Nipisihkopahk, Samson Cree Nation in Maskwacis, Alberta. The Nehiyawak are an oral culture, meaning they share information, through stories, songs, and everyday conversations, and the podcast allows Dr. Johnson to maintain that connection to her people and how knowledge can be shared and importantly to be as straightforward as needed as your own auntie would be to you. By grounding each podcast episode in ceremony and sharing the oral narratives and her own stories and experiences Dr. Johnson is able to facilitate the learning and unlearning needed for decolonization and importantly, reconciliation. These articles are the dialogues of the Auntie is in.

It is now more than 30 years since the launch of the bilateral:anada-U.S. Free Trade Agreement (CUFTA), predecessor to the multilateral North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) and the (now abandoned) Free Trade Area of the Americas (FTAA). For a generation, these "free trade" initiatives provided an important part of the framework in which political movements developed in Canada, engendering debates and controversies which continue to this day. When a new moment of trade politics emerged with Donald Trump's challenge to NAFTA, some veterans from those earlier anti-free trade battles were unable to see the new, white nationalist terrain upon which Trump was operating. This article - organized principally around the author's own engagement with the anti-free trade movements of the 1980s - suggests that this inability to see clearly the new context of anti-free trade politics was rooted in the incomplete and contradictory left-nationalist theory which underpinned most anti-free trade politics of that earlier era. The article suggests that while there are national questions in Canada - in particular those associated with Indigenous peoples and with Quebec - the attempt to articulate a parallel "national question" in Canada as a whole has proven to be impossible.

The implementation of the Canada-US Free Trade Agreement (CUSFTA) in January 1989 marked a decisive moment in the rise of neoliberalism as a political project in Canada. While the left, and socialist political economists in particular, played a central role in galvanizing the agreement and contributed in no small part to the demise of the Conservative government in 1993, the free trade agenda continued to move forward through the 1990s. This Special Issue revisits the history of struggles against free trade in Canada with two aims in mind: first to remember the coalitions through which opposition was organized, the mobilization of socialist critiques by activists and intellectuals, and the key events leading up to the adoption of the agreement. Second, drawing from this history to make sense of how things have changed over the past 30 years, as right-wing nationalists have increasingly taken the lead in opposing free trade, while neoliberals have sought to rebrand their project as ‘progressive’. How can those on the left effectively confront the project of free trade today while at the same time challenging both far-right nationalism and neoliberal globalization?

In 1983 (on the Centenary of Karl Marx’s death) the Canadian Society for Socialist Studies enlisted me to interview C.B. Macpherson about the continuing significance of Marx’s theories, and it has occurred that I might interview him again now about the relevance of his own views to the social and political ramifications of the current epidemic. A problem is that Macpherson died a few years after the earlier interview. However, luckily and likely in virtue of a just published book by me on his political thought, Macpherson’s ghost has agreed to the interview that follows.

A review of Josh Moufawad-Paul's recent book, Continuity and Rupture. Through which I present the poltical salience of this piece as a means of clarifying the terrain of revolutionary politics in terms of the reimergence of proletarian politics, the development of opportunistic critiques of Leninism and Maoism, and the necessity to reassert a scientific understanding of revolution.
