One of the first times I realized something was wrong with Occupy Vancouver was an incident I had with Sarah Beuhler. I noticed during the planning meeting that Sarah was rather stand-offish when unknown people approached her (hardly the trait of a true occupier), but I had no idea how radical her views would be …

Are The Robocall Rallies Calling To Destroy Canadian Democracy?
When I first heard about the Robocall Scandal I was immediately compelled to join the movement to call for an inquiry. If the allegations are true, we have a very serious problem in our country- and, justice must be served. However, as I’ve shared with you before, I was quickly disillusioned my the direction of the Robocall …

Officer Roadkill: “Do us all a favour and run them over!”
Today was a challenging day- both for Occupiers, and for the police. Fortunately, the majority of police acted in an entirely professional manner. And, yes, that was expected- after yesterday’s brutal violence, it was doubtful many cops would want to escalate further.

Toronto Police Lie About Altercation with Occupiers!
I am still deeply disturbed with what happened yesterday at Osgoode Hall. Yes. the Occupiers could have handled the situation better. However, the level of violence was uncalled for, and the police should have been better trained how to de-escalate the situation. Instead, they got violent and created a major incident.

My Disillusionment With the Toronto Robocall Rally…
The moment I heard about the Toronto Robocall rally I knew I must get involved. I was deeply disturbed to hear about the possibility that someone manipulated Canada’s last election, and I wanted to help effect change. But, this wasn’t my main motivation- there are bigger fish to fry…

Big News in Today’s Budget- The TIDES have turned!
I’ve been writing about the TIDES Foundation for a few weeks now. It has been a hard subject to approach because I support a lot of the causes that they do. That said, I’ve felt equally uncomfortable with the lack of honesty & transparency in their activities. Quite the dilemma…

Alex Hundert Forsakes Homeless Occupiers!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5UUSwgHab_U?rel=0 Alex, despite his court order not to go to activist events, magically appeared at the eviction today. He’s been stalking me since October- first online, and now this is the third time he has appeared to interfere with me. I applaud his braveness for showing-up, but am seriously disappointed by his lack of will …

Propaganda to Scare Your Pants Off…
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LB7tcuWsz-E?rel=0 This is scary folks. Not only because of the freakish propagandist sound of how the words are spoken, but it is scary to me because I know that this disinformation is being used to justify an uprising early this summer. I have good word that we may wake-up one day in June to discover …

Rabble.ca Admits to The Error of Their Ways!
If you read yesterday’s article about Rabble, you’ll know they seriously crossed the line in an article/podcast they published about me. It was from Alex Hundert’s Aw@l, so perhaps they just got screwed-over by them. And, perhaps they will learn their lesson this time- anarchists don’t play by the rules! lol
