Note: I am reposting this story, it was the first one I wrote for the Occupy Movement, and to this day still perfectly echos my sentiments about how our movement can succeed. It is simply really- can your grandmother feel comfortable in it? Then the answer is yes! Please read and share your feelings in …

SlanderMail from the Crazy CUPE Guy!
There is this man out there who makes me feel incredibly uncomfortable- perhaps unsafe. I’ve never met him before, never asked him to engage me-he came and hunted me down months ago back when I was at Occupy Vancouver. He appears violent and dangerous- I’m just hoping he isn’t a psychopath. Please, if anything ever …

More PottyMouth from a.k.a. Taylor Flook
Another Love Letter From Chelsea: Greg. Rob Gordon’s letter points to your obsessive nature and points out you and he had major differences. Enough to sign the petition you tried to discredit. If you are looking for apologies and regret from people, what are you willing to own up to? I have never met you, …

BullyWatch: Letter I wrote to Dave Vasey this morning
Dave, Last night I went home with tears in my eyes. It must have been looked quite obvious, because a woman who didn’t know me stopped and asked if I was okay. It was after 10pm and we were on the subway, quite an unusual situation. I got home, cried some more, and started working …

A Message to My Friends at Occupy Toronto
Please check our Facebook pages. I have published a letter there asking Dave Vasey to step-down from his (assumed) role as our leader. Dave’s handling of the allegations against my by Harsha Walia and people at Occupy Vancouver was not acceptable to the ethos of our movement. I now have disproved the allegations and it …

Call to Action: Vigil for Fukushima & Demand Action From our Governments
It was only a few days after I had moved back to Vancouver. We were living in a temporary place in the Electra building– the former headquarters of BC Hydro. The day earlier I read about the ‘secret vault’ that was discovered a month ago after a small fire shook-up the residents. There were rumours …

So the february 01, 2012 student day of action was form whom exactly?
Are you seeing the pattern here? Interesting story by Undercover Kitty. It kinda proves the patterns I have been seeing- CUPE and the other unions do not appear to be respecting Occupy’s sense of fair play… If anyone from CUPE wishes to speak out about this without being nasty and abusive (that means you crazy …

Hey Judy Rebick & Krystalline Kraus- What’s Going On?
As Ghandi once said: “First they laugh at you, Then they fight you, Then you win.” I’d have to add something in-between the ‘fight’ and the ‘win’ moments- “then they expose themselves.” And, it looks like we are right at that point. It all began with my appearing at Occupy Toronto, about 15 minutes after …
