Socialist Project Fredericton holds its first gathering – NB Media Co-op

March 16, 2026

Two dozen people came together on March 9 in Fredericton to hear about an exciting new initiative in the capital.

Susan O’Donnell spoke first about why this meeting came about. The origins of this social movement lie in the New Brunswick Social Forum in 2008, from which the NB Media Co-op emerged. For O’Donnell, the “NB Media Co-op became a focus for social organizing in the province.”

O’Donnell worked on a committee with the NB Media Co-op and her SSHRC-funded CEDAR research project at St. Thomas University to organize another event, the fall 2025 Social Forum in Wolastokuk. Forty workshops were held over an October weekend, on a “wide range of issues” as well as an information fair of provincial social justice, labour, environmental, and educational organizations.
