Time For Occupy Toronto’s Activistocrats To Crawl Back Into The Tar Sands…
For a big city (by Canadian standards) Toronto is definitely a small town at times. I’ve randomly run into a few Occupiers over the past couple of weeks while walking down the street and have had the opportunity to get some of the inside scoop on what is happening these days…

Anyhow, thought y’all may enjoy this clipping where one of their members decided to share some of Trotsky’s ‘wisdom’ with us…

Occupy Toronto: We (Aren’t) The 99%!
Here’s an interesting clipping from the Occupy/Decolonize Facebook page. Apparently, people who aren’t into anarchism are now dangerous?
People, isn’t it now time to de-occupy?

Is BC Premier Christy Clark Trying To Muzzle The Press?
And, who is this woman, and where did she come from? She seemed to be rather elusive when asked…
