I went out to Fort York last night to see the Luminato exhibit- hadn’t been there since I went on a tour with my elementary school- back when I lived in Toronto in the 70’s. The place brought back lots of memories, and I was given a beautiful show by a flock of seagulls chasing mayflies.
Thought I’d share…

I’ve been doing some research for a story on the effects of the government closing down Riverview, and other mental health facilities- and how it helped turn Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside into the mess that it is. I found these very interesting videos interviewing a former employee/resident of Raincity housing.
Notice how he mentions BC Housing has become the new home for the mentally ill- is this a part of the problem?
There is so much to address in these videos that I just don’t know where to start. There is obviously a problem with some non-profits running buildings on-behalf of BC Housing. Janice Abbott’s lies and conflict-of-interest is only the tip of the iceberg. This guy’s story is tragic…
I’d be interested in hearing other people’s stories of their experiences at Raincity, or any BC Housing residences managed by non-profits. You can mail me confidentially, or feel free to leave a comment here.

Anglican Archbishop of Toronto – Colin Johnson
You may remember I wrote a letter to Archbishop Hiltz of the Canadian Anglican church after Maggie Helwig tried to bully and get me to leave her church. I received a call from the Archbishop’s office a couple of weeks later, asking me if it was acceptable that they forward this matter to Colin Johnson, the Archbishop of Toronto. I thanked them for their attention to the matter and agreed with their suggestion.
I finally received an apologetic response from Archbishop Johnson last week. It was a friendly letter, if not a bit political, and it didn’t address my ask for the church’s help in resolving the false accusations that caused this event to occur. I’ve scanned the letter and posted it below.

Communist Wrestling Fan Playing With His (Capitalist) Android Phone!
Tonight Toronto had a new variation of the Casseroles marches- the Masquerade Solidarity march- organized by the “Ontario Student’s Mobilization Coalition”. It sounds like something new- right? Well, not quite- it was basically another event organized by the usual suspects…

Lynn Marois of Aldergrove Neighbourhood Services
It has most certainly been an interesting day today- things happened that were right on-par with yesterday. Who would have thought that was possible! Well, it was, and today’s events are indicative of the lengths people in the poverty industry will go to stop a whistleblower…

OPSEU 330 President Silvanna Petersen wearing riot gear…
Simcoe County needs a new school board. Outside of one hero, the remainder of the board took the coward’s route last night- not a single one of them would second the motion to ban the use of violent tactics against their Autistic students. Basically, they cowered to the threats of the Ontario Public Services Union (OPSEU).

The (very) small crowd…
I’ve just come back from tonight’s Toronto Casseroles march. The best way to explain it would be in the words of a person who I live with- leftovers. It appears that the people of Toronto are just not in the mood for a socialist revolution!

Dr. David Ostrow- CEO of Vancouver Coastal Health
Trying to keep up-to-date on the shenanigans of Vancouver Cop Watch (VCW), I checked out their Facebook a couple of hours ago- and, wow, was I ever surprised to see what they had posted! It seems that I found evidence of a crime- an employee of Aldergrove Neighborhood Services made an illegal criminal record check against me. I have notified the Langley RCMP about this, and have registered an official complaint with her boss.

OPSEU 330 President Silvanna Petersen wearing riot gear…
If you have been following my articles on how the Ontario Public Service Union (OPSEU) is suggesting the use of riot gear to ‘protect’ teaching assistants from autistic children, you are probably as I am at their cynical ploy to advance their contract negotiations. The individuals who are pushing for this are some really sick puppies!
