A Resounding No!
I’m on my way home after attending the Meet the Candidates at the Kitsilano Neighbourhood House. I submitted a question for all candidates:
“Is it acceptable to use Riot Squads to shutdown Occupy Vancouver?”
My question was lost in the crowd, so wasn’t discussed. So, I Politely insisted my question be answered at the end.
The room stopped, my question was taken seriously, and then, like dominos- no!, no!, no!….
So, there you have it. They were all on video, and not a single person on the board even dared to disagree!
So, can we now ask the Black Bloc to retire! ;-)

Some motivational speech from a man who’s words are worth….
I wandered lonely as a cloud
That floats on high o’er vales and hills,
When all at once I saw a crowd,
A host, of golden daffodils;
Beside the lake, beneath the trees,
Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.
Continuous as the stars that shine
And twinkle on the milky way,
They stretched in never-ending line
Along the margin of a bay:
Ten thousand saw I at a glance,
Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.
The waves beside them danced; but they
Out-did the sparkling waves in glee:
A poet could not but be gay,
In such a jocund company:
I gazed—and gazed—but little thought
What wealth the show to me had brought:
For oft, when on my couch I lie
In vacant or in pensive mood,
They flash upon that inward eye
Which is the bliss of solitude;
And then my heart with pleasure fills,
And dances with the daffodils.

Is The Pope Catholic?
Globe & Mail: “Vancouver fire officials say Occupy site isn’t safe”
Vancouver Sun: “We are co-operating,’ Occupy protesters say – and fire chief agrees”
CBC: “Occupy Vancouver complies with fire chief’s demands”

Dear MSM,
Are you F#$%ING kidding me?
Of course, camping is a risky business for the unprepared. We all understand that. This is what motivated us to engage the VFD to create a fire plan!
You are missing the real story here- that people in our movement are willing to endure great discomfort, and accept physical/social/economic risks in exchange for a free democracy!
What is your personal contribution?
Sincerely,
Occupy Vancouver/Toronto/Montreal/Calgary/Edmonton/Moncton/Victoria/Moscow/Wall Street /Zimbabwe /Mars….
