Coincidentally, I ran across Paul this evening on one of the (many) Occupy Vancouver facebook pages where he posted a link to this trailer/teaser for a documentary that will be released in January 2013. We’re ‘Facebook friends’ now, and I hope I will be able to contribute to his cause in the future…

This Guy Came To Occupy Vancouver (and was close to the leaders)

I remember meeting Aryn Gupta- it was at Harsha Walia’s Occupy Condos (where people of the DTES chanted “no middle class in our neighborhood!”), the same day that Naomi Klein came to visit…
