This week's Global Research News Hour continues its coverage of the foreign imposed Venezuelan crisis. We first hear from Mike Prysner, an organizer and activist and co-producer of Telesur's the Empire Files. He debunks much of the mainstream media narrative about the Venezuelan government's democratic failures and human rights abuses. We then hear from Barry Weisleder, an organizer in Toronto, about the challenges faced by solidarity activists in Canada to facilitate an authentic dialogue about the Venezuelan situation, including a failed effort to bring Venezuelan Minister Carlos Ron Martinez to Canada. Finally, we hear an excerpt of a skype talk by the Minister in front of a Winnipeg audience on October 19th.
