For coverage of events in Oslo and Calgary, check out the global Indymedia.

Thursday: The Intl. Longshore and Warehouse Union (ILWU) contract with the Pacific Maritime Association (PMA), covering over 10,000 workers, expires on July 1. PMA is seeking rollbacks that would impeded union organizing, including a shutdown of the hiring hall; a strike looms imminent. Additionally, truckers, some of the lowest paid port workers, are trying to organize with the Teamsters, and in Oakland, the contract with the janitors' union (SEIU 790) is also up, and they may use this opportunity for solidarity strikes. Because of the "War on Terrorism" this could lead to an activation of the Taft-Hartley Act which makes illegal a strike that might threaten national security, including any solidarity strike between the ILWU and the Teamsters. On Thursday, a massive rally will occur at the Port of Oakland (with live coverage by San Francisco Indymedia). Solidarity rallies in LA/LB, Portland, Tacoma, and Seattle are also occurring. longshore demo info
