This month marks the 100th Anniversary of the landmark September 1924 strike by "les Allumettières", the women workers at Hull's E. B. Eddy match factory -- the first women to stage a strike in the province's history.

Join us on this Saturday as we hear of this and other key moments of solidarity in Ottawa-Gatineau's industrial past.
