After days of American protests against President Elect Trump, the usual suspects from Toronto’s Social Justice Warrior scene held their own protest today. The Nathan Phillips Square event was billed as an “anti-racist” protest. And like the vast majority of Toronto’s “anti-racist” protests, today’s hypocritically featured three of the city’s most overtly racist SJWs- and a …

Sunday was not only the Christian holiday of Easter, but it was also 4/20- a date when marijuana enthusiasts around the world gather to light-up a joint at 4:20pm. Tens of …

If you were following this site last summer then you’re probably familiar with Davin Ouimet (a.k.a. Davyn Calfchild) and his partner Cathy Walker. The couple received national exposure after being featured on Sun News for their participation in the Occupy Toronto Livestream fundraiser- an event that turned out to be one of the most vile …

Events led by the Ontario Coalition Against Poverty always make for an exciting story, yesterday’s housing protest was no exception. The fun began at Alan Gardens park where OCAP members bribed about 200 useful idiots to show up with food, free bus tokens and a license to create mayhem on the streets of Toronto. It …

Last week a group of protesters caused mayhem on the streets of Toronto– causing gridlock, intimidating motorists and smashing a car’s windshield while a woman was alone inside of it. In response to criticism, they came out with some rather inadequate excuses for their bad behaviour. The fact Toronto’s activist community continues to support this …
