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

  • February 27, 2012

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 …

So, contrary to our agreement, they blocked my ability …

Conflict of Interest: Civil Liberties and Politicians Don’t Mix

  • February 22, 2012

I’m currently researching an essay on the politicization of Civil Liberties Associations.
