Lauren Gill appears to be a serial liar. First I caught her lying about me with a letter she sent to people on Cortes Island shortly after I moved there. Then, today, I caught her lying to Bill Good on CKNW radio! I like CKNW, but I must say, I really wish they would balance out their guests more often. This is the second time they have broadcast a DTES radical who lied in their show- last time it was Jennifer Allen of Cop Watch.
That said, I was thankful they gave me a minute to straighten things out today- and, I’d be very pleased to come on one day and help them understand the background behind this mess…
Lauren talks a good talk, but she fails to walk a good walk. She made it sound today like the people who were at the Casseroles marches were innocent and being unfairly treated by the police. She also lied about Sasha Wiley-Shaw’s injuries from the last Casseroles. Here’s a video I compiled with some responses to what Lauren said:
Lauren, if you have documents that prove Kate Gram has broken ribs, I’d like to see them. You told me on CKNW that you would share- please send them to me at: [email protected]
And Lauren, one last message for you. When you lie like this, over the public airwaves, you discredit the entire movement. Please think carefully before you do this in the future- you are hurting the people around you…

ha ha, awesome!
Nice banner. Sorta says it all about them doesn’t it?
And just out of curiousity, she describes it as a student movement in Vancouver, in support of the students in Quebec, so…how many of them are students?

Indeed. The banner says a lot…
These people are playing the same old games they have been up to for years now. Trying desperately hard to build division between the people of the DTES and the police. People do things like this in cults too- because they are afraid of truths coming out…
Just before Lauren’s interview they said on CKNW that only a minority of the people there were students. The remainder were the ‘usua suspects’….
“Usual suspects”, love it!!!
Know what else I love? Irony. Lauren Gill, by her own sign and where she is holding it, has just proven that she is both rich and, by extension, protected by the cops. Otherwise how could she stand in the middle of what appears to be Main and Hastings streets without getting hit by a car?

Great observation!
Lauren Gill has a union job, working for Vancouver Coastal Health. So, by most people’s standards, she is doing pretty well…
I found Lauren Gill’s explanation for the words of hate written on the signs to be offensive.
Shame on CKNW for even giving these people air time..

Indeed, CKNW should give some of the good activists some airtime for a change. There is a story that needs to be told, and the people of Vancouver need to hear it…
The only pigs involved were the professional and hobby protesters especially the ones holding up the homophobic sign.

Well put…
Please, stop presenting these idiots as protestors. they protest NOTHING , simply, they have no concept of what its like to actually protest. These people are not activists in anyway shape of form, They are self centered, self serving persons with bigger agendas and deep pockets . Real activists get things done, quietly, peacefully, respectfully and within the confines of what the law mandates. Real activists go to the sources were decisions are made. Real activists are law abiding, articulate, educated ( at least educated in the area they advocate for ) , research thier material at great length to ensure accuracy of presentation and are prepared to take hard and tough questions.
The person as shown about are simple anarchists , aimless, lacking in ambition , likely working for a union, willing to use violence to make thier statement.
