A Message to My Friends at Occupy Toronto

Please check our Facebook pages. I have published a letter there asking Dave Vasey to step-down from his (assumed) role as our leader. Dave’s handling of the allegations against my by Harsha Walia and people at Occupy Vancouver was not acceptable to the ethos of our movement.

I now have disproved the allegations and it is time to move onto the business of changing the world. Thank you for your patience during this trying time in our history. I look forward to doing great things together.

For people in Vancouver, and other occupations, I will update you soon. In the meantime, don’t forget to always ask questions of people who speak badly of others, and never accept ad-hominem attacks for any reason.

If you are worried your occupation is being subverted, it is most likely being done by those who attack others without providing credible evidence.

Together we will prevail, divided we will fall. The concept of banishment must be removed from our thoughts. MLK said we must love the oppressors. Equally, we must love each other- unconditionally.

With Love & Solidarity,
-Greg

London Has Been (De)Occupied!

Last night, at just before midnight, vans loaded with police arrived at St. Paul’s Cathedral in the City of London and began the task of clearing out several dozen remaining Occupiers.

Call to Action: Vigil for Fukushima & Demand Action From our Governments

Celebrate Progress!

It was only a few days after I had moved back to Vancouver. We were living in a temporary place in the Electra building– the former headquarters of BC Hydro. The day earlier I read about the ‘secret vault’ that was discovered a month ago after a small fire shook-up the residents. There were rumours that there may be old PCB’s down there, but nobody could confirm. The building was constructed back in 1957, the styling of the architecture reminiscent of Tomorrowland at Disneyworld- was claimed to be the tallest in the Commonwealth. Progress!

So the february 01, 2012 student day of action was form whom exactly?

Are you seeing the pattern here?

Interesting story by Undercover Kitty. It kinda proves the patterns I have been seeing- CUPE and the other unions do not appear to be respecting Occupy’s sense of fair play…

If anyone from CUPE wishes to speak out about this without being nasty and abusive (that means you crazy CUPE guy & PottyMouth CUPE girl) you are very welcome to. Even better, how about an official statement?

I wonder what this is all about???

Hate Mail From Chelseaflook! (a.k.a. PottyMouth)

One thing I am quickly learning about Toronto is that there are a lot of people in this city who need their mouths washed-out with soap! Or, at least, amongst people who I find visiting my blog…

In this case, our vocabulary-challenged guest is Taylor Flook (a.k.a. Taylor Chelsea). The quality of her attack is on-par with that crazy guy from CUPE who keeps showing up in the most unexpected places!

PottyMouth (a.k.a Officer Bubblett)

Let’s have a look at her hate mail first- then I’ll continue with my response to this heapin’ spoonful of radical environmentalist style lovin’: (click to expand)

Dear Cheseaflook,
