How The Unions Are Using Anarchist Thugs To Muscle Porter Airlines (feat. Sid Ryan, Tony DePaulo & Ken Lewenza)
There’s a labour dispute erupting at Porter Airlines.

Jason Bowman, Bill Squire, Bullshit & Trailer Park Supervisors…
Nobody would have guessed that in the battle between Jason Bowman and Kevin Annett that Bowman could possibly come on-top. After all, Bowman was caught red-handed in a lie that he had filed a case in Toronto’s federal court. Once it became apparent that he didn’t show-up at the courthouse, most reasonable people figured that …
