#OccupyHarper: The Prime Minister Is Afraid of us!
I just came across a story in a New Westminster paper The Royal City Record entitled New Westminster gets a hush-hush visit from Prime Minister Stephen Harper. Folks, it looks like we scared the Prime Minister to the point where he feels the need to hide! This only further confirms my believe that #OccupyHarper was incredibly successful! …

An Evening at #OccupySequel138 (The demonstration formerly known as #OccupyPantages…)
So, I dove into the deep-end and went to the #OccupyCondo event against the Pantages theatre. Shortly after I arrived I noticed we were marching the wrong way down the road! It turns out the story on the Pantages was a decoy- the real target was Sequel 138– a new development labeled “A Downtown Artist and …

Vancouver is Not a Nuclear Free Zone: Story of the MCP Altona…

The ship left Vancouver on December 23, 2010 carrying a shipment of 350 tonnes of Uranium Concentrate- more commonly known as ‘yellowcake’.

#OccupyHarper: PM, Coward & Anti-Bike Bully

Occupy Vancouver’s First Press Conference…
It wasn’t until Monday that I noticed how truly biased the press are against Occupy Vancouver- we really turned them off something fierce! One particular press member, Lisa Johnson, was rather impolite and sarcastic throughout the event. This was the first time I was disappointed by someone at the CBC. Lisa has apologized to us …
