267, Jordan Arseneault on opposing Conservatives in Canada

On this edition of Free City Radio we hear from musician, community organizer and longtime Queer activist Jordan Arseneault. Jordan has long organized for the rights of people living with HIV and has done a lot of work at the intersections of intersecting grassroots struggles to both lift up and speak to marginalized experiences. Jordan reflects in this interview on the organizing efforts that took place under the Conservative government in Canada of Stephen Harper to oppose the omnibus crime bill in 2012. Jordan speaks about the ways that this corner stone of Conservative legislation in Canada, that included mandatory minimum sentencing, continues to have impacts. This interview took place in the context of thinking about how community organizers can and should be dealing with the rising threat of the Conservative Party in Canada which won the most votes since 1988 in the 2025 federal election. This interview program is supported in 2025 by the Social Justice Centre at Concordia University. The music track is Passage by Anarchist Mountains.
