Remember...1st Rule of Film Club: Tell Everyone About Film Club!

Thirty-eight years and still going strong, This Magazine is one of Canada's
longest-publishing alternative journals. Founded by a gang of school
activists in 1966, and originally called This Magazine Is About Schools, the
modern-day This focuses on Canadian politics, literature and culture but, in
keeping with its radical roots, never pulls punches. Subversive, edgy and
smart, This is the real alternative to that. http://www.thismagazine.ca.
