This Guy Came To Occupy Vancouver (and was close to the leaders)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZT_IPn2QIlM?rel=0 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…
