In this clip, panelist Chuka Ejeckam explains the ways far-right movements across the globe have been expanding in the face of social and economic distress. The way to combat this, Ejeckam says, is global social solidarity. 

Chuka Ejeckam is a writer and policy researcher and a rabble columnist. His work focuses on inequity and inequality, drug policy, structural racism and labour. 

This is a clip from rabble’s most recent live politics panel: ‘Off the Hill: A look back to leap forward.’ From the Freedom Convoy, to major action in Canada’s labour movement, to the ongoing war in Ukraine, to political leadership races on the provincial and federal levels… Our panel reflected on 2022, a year that had no shortage of newsworthy events. Then asked: what does this mean we can expect for the year ahead?

The panel featured guests MP Leah Gazan, Chuka Ejeckam, El Jones and Karl Nerenberg. With co-hosts Robin Browne and Libby Davies.
