Censored! A Letter to the People of Occupy Toronto

Here’s a letter I posted to all of the people at Occupy Toronto- that is, all of those who I could reach.

Civil Liberties Czar Endures Cheap Airport Wine! (Or, virtual cream pie hits Eby- Gregor & Quatchi hit with the splatter)

Intrepid renouncer of Ninjas and defender of DTES civil rights David Eby had to endure drinking Bread Garden wine after his flight was delayed.
