The On-To-Ottawa Trek/Regina Riot - a podcast by Craig Baird

What began as a trek to Ottawa by thousands of unemployed men in 1935, would end in a terrible riot in Regina. Wanting to get better pay and conditions at work camps, the protesters were met by a federal government who saw them only as revolutionaries pushing Communism. 

This is the story of the Trek and the Riot that changed Canada.
