Social Justice in the News

Simply scanning the internet this morning brings important questions of social justice and the common good to the forefront. Questions about addressing racism are being asked in Saskatoon and Winnipeg, Tim Harper wonders when Canada will finally have a serious discussion about climate change, 17,000 workers face dim employment prospects after Target's decision to close its Canadian operations, while Winnipeg struggles to provide the necessities of life to its citizens.   This, of course, is just the tip of the iceberg.  What issues of social justice and the common good are you seeing in the news?
