It is the basis for modern day religious cults and armed forces (boot camp). It is well known that a mixture of a low protein diet, lack of sleep, communal living with a mixture of constant indoctrination, marches or hard labour and throw in some chanting (NLP or peoples mic) and bingo you have a brain washed cult. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Calibri;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;That is not to say that is what Occupy Toronto is. But I have noted that the leaders of this leaderless movement (The &lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="background: white; color: #474b4e; mso-bidi-font-family: Helvetica;"&gt;facilitators) can be compared to cult leaders. They do not live in the park, always have clean clothes, ride heard over the more politically minded members and only show up all at the same time when there are concerns about something they want passed or voted down at a general assembly meeting. These facilitators do have followers who blindly back their call as well.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Calibri;"&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="background: white; color: #474b4e; mso-bidi-font-family: Helvetica;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;I and other activists have had reservations about these facilitators since before the occupation started at St. James Park a month ago. Some of these concerns stem from the fact they all have a history in the environmental movement and connection with groups that have in the past supported the carbon taxes the governments seem to pushing these days. Many of them come from a highly suspect group out of the University of Toronto known as the Toronto&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="apple-converted-space"&gt;&lt;span style="background: white; color: #474b4e; mso-bidi-font-family: Helvetica;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://torontopeoplesassembly.wordpress.com/" title="People's Assembly on Climate Justice"&gt;&lt;span style="background: white; border-bottom: windowtext 1pt; border-left: windowtext 1pt; border-right: windowtext 1pt; border-top: windowtext 1pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Helvetica; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold; mso-border-alt: none windowtext 0in; padding-bottom: 0in; padding-left: 0in; padding-right: 0in; padding-top: 0in;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Calibri;"&gt;People's Assembly on Climate Justice&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Calibri;"&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;span style="background: white; color: blue; mso-bidi-font-family: Helvetica;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="background: white; color: #666666; mso-bidi-font-family: Helvetica;"&gt;which many see as a group that was started to support the man made global warming &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.wnho.net/global_warming.htm"&gt;&lt;span style="background: white; mso-bidi-font-family: Helvetica;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Calibri;"&gt;hoax&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="background: white; color: #666666; mso-bidi-font-family: Helvetica;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Calibri;"&gt; of U.S. politician &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Al_Gore"&gt;&lt;span style="background: white; mso-bidi-font-family: Helvetica;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Calibri;"&gt;Al Gore&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Calibri;"&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="background: white; color: #666666; mso-bidi-font-family: Helvetica;"&gt;. &lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;These &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="background: white; color: #333333; mso-bidi-font-family: Tahoma;"&gt;facilitators are the same people who took control of the pre-meeting in Berczy park a week before the occupation began and have not significantly added to that team or stepped down since. They openly speak about the training they have received but not where or from whom that training came?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="background: white; color: #333333; mso-bidi-font-family: Tahoma;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Calibri;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;There are many questions I have been asking that are not being answered. Who has signing authority on the bank account? How is the movement registered and in who’s name so this bank account can even exist? How much money is there, what are these funds being used for, who paid for the post office box, true or not true that there has been office space rented? At Berczy park they spoke of anonymous donations, what was the nature of these donations, where did they come from and who agreed on this practice?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="background: white; color: #333333; mso-bidi-font-family: Tahoma;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Calibri;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;There’s been some pretty suspect decisions made at the Occupy camp such as the support and march in favor of the “Robin Hood Tax” This was decided at a general assembly on a cold and rainy Tuesday night. The following Saturday, the day of the march not only were there a lot of CUPE union supporters in the park but hundreds of free tee shirts and buttons. In the following week of talking to at least 80 to 100 people I only found one who admitted he supported this tax. In fact the Ontario Federation of Labour and other Labour unions have poured thousands of dollars into the Occupy movement. Even though the Occupy group face a court case on Monday that could mean their eviction from St. James park.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Calibri;"&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="background: white; color: #333333; mso-bidi-font-family: Tahoma;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;For weeks I have been listening to people who feel the movement is being held back, held back from actions that speak to the real concerns that the majority joined this movement for. While most wish to make statements to address their political concerns the leaders block all statements of a political nature from being passed. While those who wish to march on the banks and corporations that they see as the root of the problems we all face. The people who control the movement pimp them out to labour unions to further their agenda. These leaders have also given &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="background: white; color: black; font-family: &amp;quot;Calibri&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; font-style: normal; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;"&gt;preferential treatment to native concerns by allowing them to lead every march and speak first at rallies. Although most sympathize with the plight of native peoples they don’t believe that’s what this movement is about and see support being lost due to this lack of focus. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="background: white; color: black; font-family: &amp;quot;Calibri&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; font-style: normal; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;There was a group that I was a part of that &lt;a href="http://canadaawakes.blogspot.com/2011/11/occupy-toronto-proposed-list-of-demands.html"&gt;produced a document, a list of demands&lt;/a&gt; that was compiled after three weeks of talking to people and the group felt this was a consensus of what many people were saying. This document was also a test to see if it was possible to get anything passed at the G.A. It was decided to try and pass this document in the open with as many people as possible in attendance, on a Saturday afternoon. For a week hundreds of copies were passed around the park. It was posted to the web site, face book, read many times on the live stream and talked about in the alternative media. When the day to vote came along, the &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="background: white; color: #474b4e; mso-bidi-font-family: Helvetica;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Calibri;"&gt;facilitators decided to push the general assembly back from 6PM to 7pm at the last minute. So the list was read to a crowd of about 150 people to wild cheers and support. Since no facilitators could be found to start the G.A. it was finally called at 7:30 when one showed up after threats of starting the meeting without one. For the next hour and a half another irrelevant matter was discussed that in the end turned out to be a moot issue. By the time the topic of the widely supported document came up most of the supporters had left the park. Oddly enough at this late hour all the facilitators suddenly were in attendance with supporters and with this smaller group the document was voted down. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="background: white; color: #474b4e; mso-bidi-font-family: Helvetica;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Calibri;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Since that day many people who have brought up the document on chat or face book have been banned. There has been an organized smear campaign against myself that have included letters to the leader of the political party I am a member of and web sites that have published my work in the past. In fact in the last week there has been a lot of censorship of anybody asking questions about the bank account or any other subject concerning transparency in the movement, As of Sunday night there has been at least 40 people banned from the O.T. face book page and articles critical of the movement have been deleted from the web site. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Calibri;"&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="background: white; color: #474b4e; mso-bidi-font-family: Helvetica;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Also this week while the movement has been in court fighting an eviction notice from the city, the leaders still found the time to attend &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="messagebody"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; mso-bidi-font-family: Tahoma;"&gt;an &lt;a href="http://www.blogto.com/events/48163"&gt;"Occupied Economies"&lt;/a&gt; panel with representatives from Occupy Toronto, and David Miller, former Toronto Mayor now working as an advisor to the World Bank. The Occupy Toronto movement sent an anonymous spokesperson; a current Bay Street investment advisor, whose identity was kept secret. In the same week globalist and former Prime Minister Paul Martin even announced support for the &lt;a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.ca/2011/11/18/paul-martin-occupy-wall-street_n_1101886.html?ref=fb&amp;amp;src=sp&amp;amp;comm_ref=false#sb=1519304,b=facebook"&gt;Occupy Movement and &lt;span style="background: white;"&gt;'Redistribution Programs'&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"&gt;&lt;span class="messagebody"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; mso-bidi-font-family: Tahoma;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Calibri;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;With all this going on the leaders in this so called leaderless movement still refuse to allow any statement critical of government or banking interests to be released. It has gotten to the point that many in the park and the movement as a whole are asking questions openly. I have seen the woman named Claudia, ( last name still not confirmed ) who has been put in charge of the bank account three times in the past week and each time she has literally run away from me while shouting over her shoulder that she will get in touch with me. The lack of transparency is an issue dogging this movement that will not go away.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"&gt;&lt;span class="messagebody"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; mso-bidi-font-family: Tahoma;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Calibri;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Whether Mayor Rob Ford evicts the movement from the park or not the Occupy movement will go on. The people of Toronto and the rest of Canada support this popular movement. Canada and the world have woken up to the fact that there is an evil corruption in their mist and will stand for it no longer. Attempts to control this movement and the impact it will have on our society will in the end fail. The question that is now being asked is who is behind this control and how long will it take to wrestle the control of the movement back so we can get on with the business of setting the country and the world back on track.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;

I could tell you about day to day life in the park, or the marches that have taken place, or what the many people I have talked to have said about why they are part of this world wide show of frustration and displeasure. As for myself I’m seeing red flags and I’m not talking about the communists.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;We are living at what could be a turning point in history and I can’t help but speculate on who’s driving the car? I have spent a few days this week just hanging in the park, observing and talking to many people, all kinds of people, young, old, activists I have known for some time, people I have only met on face book, and lots and lots of people who for them this is their first protest or action. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;The main stream corporate media report that the message is fragmented and the demands of the people are many, they continue to broadcast interviews with protesters who cannot articulate the problems and do not speak for the majority. I find the opposite to be true. Of the many I have spoken with, although they will say it in many different ways, all seem to be on the same page as to what this movement is about. The message I get from them all is corporate greed, the private banking system that has taken control of the creation of our money and the fact that our political system serves these corporations and bankers and not the people who elect them. Every other issue is a symptom of these problems.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Although this is what the people in the movement are talking about, the people who are in control of the &lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="background: white; color: #474b4e;"&gt;general people’s assembly&lt;/span&gt; seem to do nothing but direct the people with their rules of speech and &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="background: white; color: #222222; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;"&gt;etiquette&lt;/span&gt; and hold glorified pep rallies. The Occupy Toronto organization is made up of many volunteers who sit on many committee’s such as medical, food, media and logistics. There is one group however who control the real power of the movement and moderate the general assembly, this small group is the &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="background: white; color: #474b4e;"&gt;facilitating team&lt;/span&gt;. These facilitators are the same people who have taken control of this movement long before the group first came together in the park last Saturday. This group of very elusive people seem to consist of very educated university students and graduates, well trained in &lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="background: white; color: black; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;"&gt;psychology&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="background: white; color: #474b4e;"&gt; and group control&lt;b&gt; &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="background: white; color: #323232; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;"&gt;dynamics. Armed with reasonable explanations for their methods straight out of a document known as the &lt;a href="http://takethesquare.net/2011/07/31/quick-guide-on-group-dynamics-in-peoples-assemblies/"&gt;Quick guide on group dynamics in people’s assemblies&lt;/a&gt; which they claim comes from the Occupy movement in Spain. The problem with this is that there has been much speculation that these other Occupy groups are as controlled as the ones in Canada appear to be. I have been hearing the same concerns of outside control from activists known to me across Canada and the United States, I will in this article only be addressing the Toronto group which I have personally been observing.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="background: white; color: #323232; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;One of the most interesting tactics employed by the &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="background: white; color: #474b4e;"&gt;facilitators&lt;/span&gt; in group meetings is something they call “The peoples Microphone” rather than using a sound amplification system or bull horn, they will call out “Mic check” which is an instruction to the crowd to repeat what they say in a loud, almost hypnotic chant supposedly so all can hear the words spoken, they say this method is used so that everyone can feel they are part of the process and to create unity of the group. The truth is this method is also well known to psychologists as &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="background: white; color: black; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neuro-linguistic_programming"&gt;Neuro-linguistic programming&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;(&lt;/span&gt;NLP&lt;span&gt;)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;High Tower Text&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;"&gt;(NLP) is an approach to psychotherapy and organizational change based on "a model of interpersonal communication chiefly concerned with the relationship between successful patterns of behavior and the subjective experiences (esp. patterns of thought) underlying them" to change their patterns of mental and emotional behavior.&amp;nbsp;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;High Tower Text&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;NPL does not seem to be the only &lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="background: white; color: black; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;"&gt;psychological&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; tactic in these &lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="background: white; color: #474b4e;"&gt;facilitators&lt;/span&gt; tool box. Should anyone raise concerns about content or methods they are quickly encouraged to join one of the volunteer committee’s and see for themselves that nothing sinister is going on. That person is then directed to a job on one of the various committee’s that provide services to the camp or even made a marshal to police the camp activates, but access to the inner core of the facilitating team&lt;/span&gt; seems not to be an option that can be attained. In fact it took me much effort and days of being led around the park looking before I was able to nail down one of these “non leaders” for a off camera interview that was cut short because the facilitator was so busy (&lt;i&gt;busy hiding from questions like mine is my guess&lt;/i&gt;)&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="background: white; color: #474b4e;"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Her name is Sarah Rotz, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="background: white; color: #474b4e; font-size: 8.0pt; line-height: 115%;"&gt;(Master of Environmental Studies Candidate, York University, Honour's Bachelor Degree in Environmental Management and Business Management, University of Toronto)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="background: white; color: #474b4e;"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Talking to Sarah was like talking to customer service at the phone company, none of the excitement or passion that I got from others in the park. My first question was her background and experience in activism? &lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;She told me about her work on the Toronto &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="background: white; color: #666666; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://torontopeoplesassembly.wordpress.com/" title="People's Assembly on Climate Justice"&gt;&lt;span style="border: none windowtext 1.0pt; color: black; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold; mso-border-alt: none windowtext 0in; padding: 0in; text-decoration: none; text-underline: none;"&gt;People's Assembly on Climate Justice&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;, another highly suspect group, it appears the Toronto chapter of this international group are the very same people who turned up as &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="background: white; color: #474b4e;"&gt;facilitators&lt;/span&gt; in the Occupy Toronto movement. When I started asking questions about the anonymous donations and allegations of control by CSIS that a young man named Thomas Zaogg had made moments earlier in the park, something interesting happened. A man appeared at her side and started answering the questions for her. When I asked if he was a facilitator as well ? He told me no, nor was he on any of the other committees, just another protester in the park. Well for just another protester in the park this man who identified himself only as Aden seemed to know all the text book answers. The pair dismissed my questions as paranoia and even suggested the drugged up young man named Thomas (who had been thrown under the bus at the pre-Occupy meeting) was himself a CSIS agent. The pair then told me they were busy and quickly disappeared into the crowd in the park. Any other attempts to track down and question facilitators this week have proved futile. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="background: white; color: #474b4e;"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;In the first week of the Occupy Toronto Movement, they have entrenched themselves in St. James park, had a number of protest marches, discussion groups, arranged for food and communications in the park, but have yet to issue a group statement of any kind. Since day one I am also hearing talk of “things that don’t seem right about this whole thing”, but the people camping in the park don’t seem concerned about this at all? I am also hearing the same concerns from other Canadian cities as well. For example when the march came back from city hall this Saturday a general &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="background: white; color: #222222; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;"&gt;assembly was called and even though someone was going though the crowd taking names for a list of people who wished to speak, the &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="background: white; color: #474b4e;"&gt;facilitator announced the speakers list was full and they would not be hearing from anyone who was not on the list. What list? I could see the list had not yet been compiled? Although anybody is supposed to be allowed to speak at these controlled meetings that’s not what is happening.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="background: white; color: #474b4e;"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Now don’t get me wrong here, I believe in the goals and spirit of this movement. Even though I strongly believe that this movement is currently being controlled by what may be government agents in an attempt to control the direction of this popular uprising. The people may yet achieve real change in how we function as a society. &lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;In the end I also believe these attempts at control will fail. It will take more than a bunch of university control freaks with a bag full of psychological tricks to stop what has started in the world. I believe we are at a turning point in history and the people who have been steering the car may well end up as road kill.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="background: white; color: #474b4e;"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="background: white; color: #474b4e;"&gt;Lawrence McCurry&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="background: white; color: #474b4e;"&gt;October 23, 2011&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&amp;amp;v=QKRFkijNNzE"&gt;http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&amp;amp;v=QKRFkijNNzE&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OJxMNMZvqTo"&gt;http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OJxMNMZvqTo&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="background: white; color: #323232; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4395994043314315746-4600755017987451612?l=canadaawakes.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://canadaawakes.blogspot.com/feeds/4600755017987451612/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://canadaawakes.blogspot.com/2011/10/whats-going-on-in-park-occupy-toronto.html#comment-form' title='8 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4395994043314315746/posts/default/4600755017987451612'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4395994043314315746/posts/default/4600755017987451612'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://canadaawakes.blogspot.com/2011/10/whats-going-on-in-park-occupy-toronto.html' title='What’s going on in the park?

I wish to make it clear that although I am attending as much as I can find the time, I do not consider myself to be a part of this movement. Although I do sympathize with the goals and spirit of the movement, I am seeing a lot of the activists and independent alternative media blindly throwing their support behind it even though they freely admit they have problems with the way things are being done, things being said and the transparency. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Calibri;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;The day started for me at 11a.m. at the corner of King and York streets. The protest had been called for King and Bay (one short block away) at 10am but as I was meeting some out of town friends I had to allow time for them to get here. By the time we walked to the corner we were met by about 100 other protesters who were all wondering where everyone else had gone? In one hour the whole protest had disappeared leaving late comers to figure out for themselves where the secret location of the protest had moved to. After some calls to an activist friend we found the group at St. James park a few blocks south of Toronto’s financial district.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Calibri;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;On arriving at the park the first thing that struck me was there was not near as much of a police presence as I expected. In the park the usual factions had set up, the unions, communists, socialists all these familiar groups were using sound equipment to make speeches and the general protesters wandering around with their signs. It all seemed like just another protest in the park. The drummers and the usual kind of things we veterans of protest have seen before. But amongst this large crowd, taking their time setting up more permanent encampments were the people I was interested in, the group who have been organizing the Occupy Toronto movement. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Calibri;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;What’s interesting about the O.T. organizers is they have set up teams and asked for volunteers for these teams. Most of these teams are easy to understand Food, medical, media, but the most interesting group is the &lt;span style="mso-bidi-font-family: ArialMT;"&gt;facilitating team. This is the team that moderates and controls the group meetings known as the general assembly. Now there are activists that are known to me on many of the teams and even the media team. Everybody tells me there are no leaders and nobody is in charge. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Calibri;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-bidi-font-family: ArialMT;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;As the day wore on the regular players and their supporters packed up and dwindled away and went home as the O.T. team’s encampments got larger and organized, the protesters that stuck around were the younger and less experienced protesters, many attending their first protest. Early evening the general assembly had begun. Now this method of holding a meeting seems a bit strange to me. The person speaking makes himself heard by the crowd by having the people in the front repeat what he says in a loud voice so those in the back may hear. That technique strikes me as odd. These people can organize all this but can’t put together a sound system or a $30 bull horn? What’s the advantage of this? In my view it made the meeting much longer, it also took away the tone of the speaker so you may as well have written it down on a large screen everyone could read? No what this did was create a group &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="mso-bidi-font-family: Arial-BoldMT; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;"&gt;dynamic, one I had seen used before in cults and religious groups.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Calibri;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-bidi-font-family: Arial-BoldMT; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;When I got closer and forced myself to listen to the words these people were repeating in a chant like manner I was mildly shocked. These moderators and &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="mso-bidi-font-family: ArialMT;"&gt;facilitators were laying out rules for speech and conduct in dealing with each other and others! What was really shocking was no one was objecting at being told what to do? Whoever these people were they were controlling this crowd like seasoned professionals. What I heard was that for all problems that may arise in the process of this general assembly a person should contact a facilitator, so I decided to do just that. I wandered up to the media tent, told them my name and asked to speak to a facilitator. The guy at the table looked up at me and said “You’re Lawrence aren’t you?” My reputation had preceded me. I recognized him as someone who had given the CBC interview the week before. Right away another guy named Josh dropped what he was doing to help me with my concerns. Again I felt like I was dealing with a cult, but how could this be possible? Working at the same table was a well known activist and friend that earlier in the day had assured me nothing funny was going on here.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-bidi-font-family: ArialMT;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Calibri;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;I had a long conversation with Josh; I related my concerns about the group think methods I saw and the rumors about anonymous donations that had been made. The fact that although every one claimed there was no leader, somebody had to have started all this organizing and have paid for or arranged for the meeting space they have been using at OSIE the week leading up to this event? Josh threw out some first names but could not give me last names without his phone and the people I really should be talking to were these facilitators who were busy running this meeting somewhere in the middle of this sea of chanting repeaters. He suggested I wait till after the meeting or come back later.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-bidi-font-family: ArialMT;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Calibri;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Well at this rate I could see this general assembly meeting might be going on all night. To his credit Josh did offer to send me organizing documents he had, copies of e-mails and a pdf file that would explain the methods they were using entitled &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://takethesquare.net/2011/07/31/quick-guide-on-group-dynamics-in-peoples-assemblies/"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial-BoldMT; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial-BoldMT;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Calibri;"&gt;Quick guide on group dynamics in people's assemblies&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Calibri;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="color: #000081; font-family: Arial-BoldMT; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial-BoldMT;"&gt;. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="mso-bidi-font-family: Arial-BoldMT; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;"&gt;He also assured me that he would arrange a face to face meeting with a &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="mso-bidi-font-family: ArialMT;"&gt;facilitator. Josh seemed like an upfront guy, we exchanged contact information and he was good for his word and by the time I got home the things he said he would send were in my mail box.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-bidi-font-family: ArialMT;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Calibri;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;There was one more thing that kind of freaked me out. As I was leaving the media tent I spotted a woman who I recognized from many protests around town, she is a blogger for a popular alternative news site. After introducing myself I asked her if she still wrote for that site and she said she did. I then asked her “as a journalist, are you not concerned with the lack of transparency in this movement?” What happened next made me feel like I was in the body snatchers film. She replied with “Go away, you’re scaring me with your aggressive language, and I don’t wish to talk with you anymore!” What???&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;I was shocked. Surly this woman had seen me around at other events as I her? How was asking her this question aggressive in any shape or form? &lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;I left the park more disturbed than I have ever been from a day of protest with maybe the exception of the day of the G-20.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-bidi-font-family: ArialMT;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Calibri;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Josh called me back at 1a.m. Sunday morning and assured me that he could arrange a meeting with facilitators when I came back to the park on Monday. Now I’m not saying that anything sinister is going on here. But as an old hand at civil disobedience and protest I’m feeling off balance about this whole thing. For the first time I have questions about motives.

This is a custody hearing brought by the boy’s probation officer to remove him from his parents’ custody and make him a ward of the state. The reason?&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Because his parent’s refused to sign papers that would permit his information and records to be forwarded to the &lt;/span&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="background: white; color: black; font-family: &amp;quot;Cambria&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-style: normal; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin;"&gt;National Security Agency&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Cambria&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin;"&gt;, The NSA.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Cambria&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Basically the position of the probation officer (Marcia Mathura) and the court is that because of his parent’s political beliefs, their membership in the Oath Keepers and the fact that they are political activists makes them unfit parents. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Cambria&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Dillon’s legal problems started two years ago when at the age of 13 when he stole a candy bar and was charged. Realizing he had done something wrong he pled guilty to the crime and received probation, over 350 hours of community service and a $300.00 fine which the boy paid himself out of money he has earned. But it seems all this was not good enough for his probation officer Marcia Mathura who regularly had him submit to drug testing and unannounced home inspections. She has even gone so far as publicly accusing his mother of being a drunk (She does not drink) and has now brought a custody case before the courts. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Cambria&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;The real story here is that Dillon is being used as a pawn in the on going harassment of this family by the Hackettstown N.J police dept. and the government. Back in March of this year Dillon’s mother &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.federaljack.com/?p=21177"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Cambria&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; line-height: 115%; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin;"&gt;Pierotte Vassau was charged&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Cambria&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; line-height: 115%; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin;"&gt; with a series of bogus charges, most of which have been dropped and the remainder have yet to come to trial.

The family has been harassed on a almost constant and ongoing basis with police illegally coming on to their property, parking in front of their house and questioning any visitors and the laying of bogus and unfounded charges. As well as inspections and demands by Dillon’s probation officer for such things as drug testing and &lt;/span&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="background: white; color: black; font-family: &amp;quot;Cambria&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-style: normal; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin;"&gt;psychological evaluation, keep in mind this is about a 13 year old kid that stole a candy bar!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="background: white; color: black; font-family: &amp;quot;Cambria&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-style: normal; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Dillon’s parents have made efforts to comply with everything that Dillon’s probation officer, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Cambria&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; line-height: 115%; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Cambria&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin;"&gt;Marcia Mathura has asked, but when she insisted that the parents sign a waiver that would share all of his records with the &lt;/span&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="background: white; color: black; font-family: &amp;quot;Cambria&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-style: normal; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin;"&gt;National Security Agency they refused. Her response to this was to have Dillon arrested again and bring custody hearings before Judge Robert J. Reed of the warren county court in Belvidere.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="background: white; color: black; font-family: &amp;quot;Cambria&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-style: normal; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;For quite some time the Hackettstown school board and his probation officer has been pressuring Dillon to sign emancipation documents against his and his parents wishes. Dillon has no wish to be emancipated from his parents as he has always felt that they have been looking after his best interests and loves them both very much. It appears this has frustrated the state’s and school board’s plans to break up this family and the current court actions prove this.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="background: white; color: black; font-family: &amp;quot;Cambria&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-style: normal; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;It has become clear that Dillon’s legal problems are a result of an on going harassment campaign and both Dillon and his Mother Pierotte have found it impossible to obtain adequate legal help as most lawyers they have contacted don’t seem to want to touch their cases in any way.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="background: white; color: black; font-family: &amp;quot;Cambria&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-style: normal; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin;"&gt;UPDATE&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="background: white; color: black; font-family: &amp;quot;Cambria&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-style: normal; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="background: white; color: black; font-family: &amp;quot;Cambria&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-style: normal; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin;"&gt;Sources close to the family have informed me that Dillon has been released back to his family and that the custody proceedings have been thrown out. &lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;It appears that Judge R Reed stepped up to the plate on this one and reason and sanity prevailed in his court room today.

Now, that being said I feel I am being forced to define what is and is not part of the large worldwide movement that we call the “Truth Movement”.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 115%; mso-themecolor: text1;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;First let me address why I feel the need to be so arrogant as to even try to define what the movement is and is not. In short it is because I am starting to see how the truth movement is being hijacked in much the same way the powers that be have hijacked our democratic process. In fact there is so much division at this point amongst the people in the movement pertaining to beliefs that really have nothing to do with the goals of the movement, I feel that we are almost on the point of collapse.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 115%; mso-themecolor: text1;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Although many will argue the modern day movement is an extension of the hippy movement of the sixties, Most will not dispute the popular movement of today really gained ground and has taken off as a result of the large number of people that became active around the lies and deceit that grew out of the way the U.S. government responded to the events of 9/11. The real father of the truth movement is George W. Bush. When he made the decision to lump the 9/11 movement in with the people who did not buy the explanation of the Kennedy assassination&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;or the UFO cover up and collectively called them all “conspiracy theorists”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 115%; mso-themecolor: text1;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Although the 9/11 truth movement has remained one of the central pillars of what many refer to as the Truth Movement, it has grown to encompass a whole range of beliefs that are central to the human condition, the fringe element that shares these core beliefs however has now also grown to the point of alienating the less colorful political activists that have made the movement what it is today. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 115%; mso-themecolor: text1;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;The greatest danger to the Truth Movement today are not these core beliefs that we can all agree exist, but the esoteric and religious beliefs that the fringe wing nuts push along with it. Those who wrongly believe that every conspiracy theory and belief about religion or the spiritual nature of man has a place at the table of what we all refer to as the truth movement. They do not. That is not to say that all these new age spiritual believers or bible thumpers are wrong, just that their views must be separated from the views and goals of the movement.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 115%; mso-themecolor: text1;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;To define what is the “Truth Movement” is as arrogant on my part as defining what the movement is not. This may be too narrow a definition for many and probably is, but seeing as how this thing has turned into a worldwide movement with uprisings and insurrections starting to take place in many countries of the world, I believe it is time we all addressed what our definitions and motives are before the movement and the world slip off into total mayhem. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"&gt;&lt;i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-size: 16pt; line-height: 115%; mso-themecolor: text1;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Calibri;"&gt;So what are these core beliefs that the movement is centered around?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 115%; mso-themecolor: text1;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;There is in the world today a group(s) of elite banking and corporate interests that control most governments, media, and the economic and military systems of the world. These governments and economic systems no longer serve the majority of the population and are now in fact being used to control and enslave the populations of the world. These elites are consolidating their power by finical means, forcing the governments they control to make war on those they do not and each other. By improvising the people of all countries though austerity measures and deliberate economic downturn and unemployment. The consolidation of the free press and terrorist false flag attacks (such as 9/11 and the London bombings) are just some ways amongst many that they use to manipulate the masses in the direction of their plans. The goal of the elites? A one world government consisting of large economic trading blocs such as the European and North American unions. A culling of the world’s population to ensure complete and unopposed control of the world.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 115%; mso-themecolor: text1;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;The movement recognizes that money and control of the main stream media&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;can control a democratic system as easy as weapons and bombs can topple&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;another. The goals of the movement can be summed up in one simple yet complex word, Change. People all over the world are sick of being lied to, having important information hidden from them and being manipulated into actions that run counter to their best interests. They realize that the control of the resources and the monetary systems of the world are benefiting a small elite group to the detriment of the majority. There can be no justice, peace or equality in the world under the systems that humanity is now saddled with. In short the Truth Movement wants change and the political uprisings, protests against austerity, corruption, war and police brutality that are taking place across the world today are the result.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"&gt;&lt;i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-size: 18pt; line-height: 115%; mso-themecolor: text1;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Calibri;"&gt;The Problem with the Truth Movement?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 115%; mso-themecolor: text1;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Since the early days, the movement has embraced many issues and concepts as part of their group such as police brutality and how it relates to a growing fascist state, the cover up of UFO’s, national &lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;sovereignty&lt;/span&gt; issues, as well as many others. The problem is that since the early days of the movement other groups and people have also used the core beliefs of the movement to sell their own agenda’s, incorporating the beliefs and goals of the movement to push their own brand of religion, philosophy, prophecy, numerology and general nuttiness.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 115%; mso-themecolor: text1;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;Some groups such as The &lt;a href="http://www.thezeitgeistmovement.com/"&gt;Zeitgeist Movement&lt;/a&gt; will carefully lay out in detail the core beliefs of the movement but then offer their solutions, some of which would run very counter to what most would endorse. The Zeitgeist model, a one world government where all labor is mechanized and resources and society are controlled by a supercomputer that cares for all humans who live in this cashless utopia where there is no crime and luxury items such as boats and cars are shared by all.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 115%; mso-themecolor: text1;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;Even individuals, who some look at as leaders in a leaderless movement, such as &lt;a href="http://www.davidicke.com/"&gt;David Icke&lt;/a&gt;, will with great skill, educate you in the core beliefs of the movement and then tell you the Queen is an evil alien Lizard and push his new age spiritual beliefs and experiences. What is happening here is that these people are combining their own agenda’s with the core beliefs of the movement that touches us all as being true, and repackaging it all to present to you with one big package of truth.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 115%; mso-themecolor: text1;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;Followers of these groups, individuals and beliefs will often expect others in the movement to also buy the whole package of what they personally believe and if they do not, they are often considered to be less or misinformed. Some will even go as far as labeling these fellow “Truthers” as shills or sympathizers of the elite.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 115%; mso-themecolor: text1;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 115%; mso-themecolor: text1;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;A good example of what I’m trying to put forth here would be this statement. We can all agree that there is well documented evidence that the government has lied to the public in that UFO’s exist and that some of them may be alien in nature. Fair enough, most all in the movement would accept that statement as one of the core beliefs of the “Truth Movement”. That the governments have been telling the public lies and are hiding information in this matter. This however does not mean that anybody who calls out bullshit when you tell about your conversations with the galactic alliance is a shill, provocateur or is in any way naive or misinformed. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 115%; mso-themecolor: text1;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Just because you are on a journey for personal “truth” or have accepted a concept based on some aspect of one of the core beliefs, such as, the elite are luciferians, they all conduct themselves by the code set out in the protocols of Zion, or they are really alien lizard people. Even though these things may or may not be true, they are not the belief of all in the movement and should not be considered talking points when discussing the movement in any serious discourse. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 115%; mso-themecolor: text1;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;If you are a Christian or a new age spiritual follower that does not mean you cannot be on side with the movement, but you cannot expect the movement to be on side with you. Your personal or spiritual beliefs have no place in it. You may be able to apply your knowledge of &lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;numerology, revised history or bible prophecy to events in the world today but that does not mean they are part of the core beliefs that make up the truth movement.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black;

&lt;/span&gt;If the Truth Movement intends to attract the kind of numbers it needs to achieve the goal of real change that humanity must have, then the fringe element within its ranks must be curbed before it ends up alienating &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: black;

text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;The incident began when Pierotte known to her fans as Pepe from the Pete &amp;amp; Pepe show on &lt;a href="http://www.freethinkradio.com/"&gt;Free Think Radio.com&lt;/a&gt; looked out the window of her second story home just in time to see the police pull up on a mentally disabled local boy and get out of their car to detain the teenager. Pepe who was bed ridden and ill at the time opened the second floor window to inform the police that the boy was mentally handicapped good natured and offered to call the boy’s mother to explain to the police why the boy was not in school as this appeared to be the reason why the police were detaining him. Pepe who knew the boy and had been advocating on his behalf with the local school board could tell he was distressed, terrified and not comprehending what was happening to him due to his handicap and Pepe was making an attempt to inform the police of this from the window.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;What happened next according to Peter Malanga (Pierotte’s ex husband) who also lives at the same address and was looking after the couple’s own children at the time was shocking to say the least. The officer’s (Officer Garzon &amp;amp; Sgt. Ficarra) asked Pepe to step outside to assist them in the matter. Pepe who is a slight woman of 120 lbs. and sick at the time with what she thought was a bad cold as well as a pre exciting medical disability gladly went outside hoping to help with the situation the youth was in. As soon as she walked out the door she was immediately tackled by the officers who handled her in an extremely rough manner, kneeling on her stomach forcing her to defecate herself. As soon as the officers had booked the woman, rather than incarcerating her they rushed her to the Hackettstown regional medical center where she was admitted and remains days later. The desk Sgt. On duty with the Hackettstown police dept. that night claimed she was being treated for &lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black;"&gt;pneumonia. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;Weather this is true or not remains unclear at this time as neither the hospital or the police will release information on her condition. When this reporter called her room at the hospital the night of the arrest her phone was answered by an officer Sheedy who refused to put her on the phone or answer questions on her condition, the hospital also refused to make a statement.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"&gt;According to Peter he was requested by a nurse on the phone to bring some clean clothes and underwear to the hospital but was called by police afterward and threatened that “If he were to show his face at the hospital again he would also be arrested, And that the clothes he had brought would not be given to Pierotte” He has also been told that child services would be called and that their children may be removed from the home. Peter has been having little luck trying to find affordable legal representation who can get in to see and talk to Pepe as he is still in the dark on first hand information on her condition.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;On Friday March 18 2011 Det. Darren Tynan of the Hackettstown P.D. issued a “Press Release” that was amateurish, thin on details and did not even name the arresting officers. When asked for a copy of the official police report he refused the request and would not elaborate on the sketchy details and inconsistencies of the so called press release.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;The press release contradicts details from eye witnesses that have contacted this reporter since last Tuesday and some of the inconsistencies like the claim that Pepe pulled down her pants while handcuffed from behind in the back seat of the police car make no sense. (Is that even possible?) The press release also states&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 115%;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"&gt;“Pierotte came outside and while the officer was reading her Miranda rights Pierotte grabbed the officer’s neck and started to squeeze.” &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"&gt;Why was the officer allegedly reading her rights when at this point she had committed no crime? Not to mention why such a small sick woman would attack a police officer over an incident such as this one? In all the time I have been reporting on jailed activists in the United States I have never been stonewalled or been passed such a bogus document as this joke of a press release.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="line-height: 115%; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Until someone is allowed to talk to Pierotte or she is released we may not be able to find out if the allegations of a police beating and cover up are true.

Last week a &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5YpBoZT-Wvg"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Calibri;"&gt;film on you tube&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Calibri;"&gt; by local activist, film maker and radio host Daniel Libby featuring this writer at a rally to support the Egyptian uprising has gone viral on the internet. The film features the infamous officer A.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Josephs&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;(A.K.A &lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;Officer Bubbles).&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;The reason I choose officer Josephs to approach about being one of the half dozen officers there who were not wearing a tag was because he was the only one I knew by sight and could identify by name who were not wearing name or badge numbers that day.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Calibri;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;The fact that he refused to recognize me when I politely said “Excuse me Officer” or was openly rude and threatened to arrest me as a member of the public who merely wished to ask a question, is to me all the more reason police officers need to be able to be easily identified by citizens. Also being winter time these officers who did not wear tags were also wearing cold weather head gear and sun glasses that partially covered their faces as well. Other than officer Josephs who has become famous for his open rudeness and distain for the general public none of the other officers that were not wearing tags could be identified.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Calibri;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #343434; mso-bidi-font-family: Helvetica;"&gt;The Ontario Labor Relations Board has recently &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.thestar.com/news/crime/article/931743--police-union-loses-bid-to-end-mandatory-name-tags?bn=1"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-bidi-font-family: Helvetica;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Calibri;"&gt;turned down a Toronto police union bid&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #343434; mso-bidi-font-family: Helvetica;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Calibri;"&gt; to end the mandatory wearing of name tags by uniformed officers. The police union claim that the name tags, which display an officer’s first initial and last name, increase the risk of their being harmed. This however does not explain the excuse for not wearing a badge number either. I can’t help but feel the growing attitudes of the rank and file of the police towards the public is a much greater risk than the name tags ever would be. When the police engage the public in this city, weather a traffic stop, on the street, a protest or rally or even a criminal investigation they are seldom friendly or polite.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Calibri;"&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #343434; mso-bidi-font-family: Helvetica;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;After the G-20 in Toronto last June &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span lang="EN" style="color: black; mso-ansi-language: EN;"&gt;Chief Bill Blair of the Toronto Police Service &lt;a href="http://www.cbc.ca/canada/toronto/story/2010/11/04/toronto-g20-police-badges.html"&gt;&lt;span style="color: purple;"&gt;told a Commons public safety committee&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt; that 90 officers will face disciplinary action for failing to wear their ID badge. During committee questioning, Blair said he believed some of the 90 officers were trying to hide their identities. One of the main reasons there were not more charges laid against the perpetrators of the wide scale violence committed on the public was due to the fact that the police officers breaking the law could not be identified. The fact that more than six months later the rank and file are still thumbing their nose at the law and the rules that govern the conduct of the police in this city clearly show that the police are out of control and that Bill Blair as chief cannot control his officers.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN" style="color: black; mso-ansi-language: EN;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Calibri;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;The Toronto Police Services Board, a civilian agency that oversees the police force, made name tags mandatory in 2006. The police have appealed this decision and lost and yet still there were many officers spotted at the rally who refuse to comply? After the G-20 Chief Blair’s response to this was to dock the officers a days pay which amounts to a fine of about $300.00 and it now looks like this punishment clearly had no effect at all.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN" style="color: black; mso-ansi-language: EN;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Calibri;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Many people in this city have some serious concerns that we are quickly slipping into a fascist police state here in Canada. The fact that Officer Josephs refused to identify himself that day to me or that &lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;About 1,100 people were arrested during the G20 weekend in Toronto, but only 308 were charged. With many of those charges later being dropped, proves that these concerns are well founded. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN" style="color: black; mso-ansi-language: EN;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Calibri;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Our charter of rights and freedoms were and are being blatantly violated and ignored by the Toronto Police Services and this is the main reason why people like me will never give up on calling for a public inquiry into the G-20. Unless the police in Canada’s largest city are brought under control and soon, you may as well hang that charter of rights and freedoms in your bathroom and use it to wipe your butt. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;

line-height: 115%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;The way the main stream media has covered and promoted the lies surrounding the G-20 in Toronto this summer makes one believe that the nightly news has become nothing less than one more commercial. What passes for journalism is no more than a slick campaign and makes one wonder if any of what is reported on your nightly news or major news papers is true at all? I have even known people who tell me they get their news from a late night comedy channel show and I can’t help but think they are getting more truth from that than they would from the network news these days.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;The hype and spin that is used to control the public’s perception of what happened at the G-20 in Toronto is a text book example of how to totally control what the population believes, while not reporting the truth of what was really going on, all without having to tell bold face lies at the same time. This holds true not only for the reporting of the G-20, but in almost everything that is reported (or just not covered) in the news. A classic example would be the way the Main stream media covered &lt;a href="http://en.video.canoe.tv/video/news/canada/1896809958/many-g20-accused-will-have-charges-dropped/593459213001"&gt;the first court appearances&lt;/a&gt; of over 300 people arrested at the G-20.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;Last August when these people had their first court appearances a large number had charges against them dropped. The reason for this was because most of the people charged had committed no crime. These people were arrested for engaging in legal peaceful protest or just being in the wrong place when surrounded by police. Yet when the media reported on the court appearances of these people charged with bogus offences such as public mischief &amp;amp;amp; assaulting police, the media presented us with pictures of burning police cars and masked “Black Block anarchists” breaking windows. Even though none of these people were charged with those crimes and probably were not even at the scene of these crimes, the impression that the media plants in the mind of the public by showing these pictures are that the people in the next scene or picture going into court are the ones who committed that crime. This is akin to showing pictures of a rogue elephant trampling a crowd while telling you a story of how the circus is coming to town.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;The distortions the media used in misleading the public around the events of the G-20 also can be seen in the language used. When showing pictures and film clips like the ones described above, the media without exception referred to the violence or violent protest of the G-20. The truth of the matter is that smashing windows and destroying property is not violence but vandalism. By using the word violence instead of the word vandalism the picture brought to your mind and the way you tend to think about what happened changes your perspective completely. Make no mistake there was plenty of violence, Not on the part of the protesters but on the part of the police who blatantly assaulted peaceful protesters while arresting and &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kettling"&gt;&lt;span class="SpellE"&gt;Kettling&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt; them. Of course this too went unreported.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;A very large part of the distortion is also what the media does not report or what they under report and simplify. The G-8/20 meetings were a conference of world leaders that disrupted Canada’s largest city at a cost of a billion dollars, without looking it up can you honestly say that you could tell your neighbor what was discussed, decided and agreed to at this meeting? Can you even tell me what was talked about at the G-20 meeting that wrapped up last month in Korea? Did you even know that meeting took place?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;For weeks there has been wide spread rioting and protest in Europe, Clashes between police and protesters in Greece, England and Ireland and yet this goes grossly under/not reported on your nightly news and hardly mentioned in your news papers. When it is mentioned again the spin machine is hard at work here too. I have heard more in the last few days about the snow fall in Europe than the wide spread political unrest. So what is this political unrest in Europe about and what is being talked about at these G-20 meetings that the main stream media is not talking about? When they do mention it they simply call it austerity measures. &lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;According to Wikipedia the definition is:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black;

That social programs and spending are what’s bankrupting our nations and that only prudent spending and tax increases will balance the &lt;span class="GramE"&gt;nations&lt;/span&gt; books and restore the prosperity we enjoyed just a few short years ago. This too is one of the lies the main stream media has been feeding the people. The truth of the matter is the money that our governments should be spending on these programs is now going straight into the pockets of the banks. The admission for these countries to join the G-8/G-20 in the first place was to stop the practice of issuing their own currency though their national banks and to borrow it instead off of private banking interests all in the name of globalism. Because of the large interest charged on these loans (deficits) the whole country (all the people in it) become the property of the private banks that are now calling the shots. So much for democracy, it no longer has any meaning under this finical system.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black;"&gt;So why would a so called independent main stream media be complaisant in this scheme, this finical &lt;span class="SpellE"&gt;ponzi&lt;/span&gt; game? &lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="GramE"&gt;Because, they are no longer independent.&lt;/span&gt; All of the main Stream Media here in Canada and everywhere else for that matter have been bought and taken over by the same supra corporations and banks that have bought and run, both the main Stream political parties you get to vote for in the sham elections.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="MsoHyperlink"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;"&gt;media in Canada are primarily owned by a small number of companies, including &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="apple-converted-space"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CTVglobemedia" style="background-clip: initial; background-origin: initial;" title="CTVglobemedia"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #0645ad;"&gt;CTVglobemedia&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="apple-converted-space"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canwest" style="background-clip: initial; background-origin: initial;" title="Canwest"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #0645ad;"&gt;Canwest&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="apple-converted-space"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rogers_Communications" style="background-clip: initial; background-origin: initial;" title="Rogers Communications"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #0645ad;"&gt;Rogers&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="apple-converted-space"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shaw_Communications" style="background-clip: initial; background-origin: initial;" title="Shaw Communications"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #0645ad;"&gt;Shaw&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="apple-converted-space"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Astral_Media" style="background-clip: initial; background-origin: initial;" title="Astral Media"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #0645ad;"&gt;Astral&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="apple-converted-space"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newcap_Broadcasting" style="background-clip: initial; background-origin: initial;" title="Newcap Broadcasting"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #0645ad;"&gt;Newcap&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="apple-converted-space"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;"&gt;and&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="apple-converted-space"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quebecor_Inc." style="background-clip: initial; background-origin: initial;" title="Quebecor Inc."&gt;&lt;span style="color: #0645ad;"&gt;Quebecor&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;. Each of these companies holds a diverse mix of television, cable television, radio, newspaper, magazine and/or internet operations.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: black;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black;"&gt;Under globalist P.M. Brian Mulroney the media ownership laws in Canada were changed to allow large corporate conglomerates to consolidate all the privately owned media outlets in the country. Today all the news you get outside of the internet is tightly controlled by a &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Media_ownership_in_Canada"&gt;small handful of companies.&lt;/a&gt; &lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;"&gt;For example, in 1990, 17.3% of daily newspapers were independently owned; whereas in 2005, 1% &lt;span class="GramE"&gt;were&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;/span&gt; The same is true for television and radio news outlets.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;"&gt;At one time the founders of many of the free nations of the world foresaw the dangers of a fifth estate that may fall under the influence of a group of men that may wish to take over a free society and made laws so the control of media ownership would not fall into the hands of a few. That was the whole reason why the CRTC was created in Canada in the first place! Today because of globalist policies almost all media in Canada and the world is now in the control of the very same people who wish to control you, your money, &lt;span class="GramE"&gt;the&lt;/span&gt; way you think and perceive the world around you.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;"&gt;In June 2006 a Senate Standing Committee on Transport and Communications&lt;/span&gt; gave &lt;span class="SpellE"&gt;&lt;span class="GramE"&gt;it’s&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; final report, it expressed concern about the effects of the current levels of news media ownership in Canada. Specifically, the Committee discussed their concerns regarding the following trends: the potential of media ownership concentration to limit news diversity and reduce news quality; the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission]] (CRTC) and Competition Bureau’s ineffectiveness at stopping media ownership concentration; the lack of federal funding for the CBC and the broadcaster’s uncertain mandate and role; diminishing employment standards for journalists (including less job security, less journalistic freedom, and new contractual threats to intellectual property)&lt;/span&gt; nothing was ever done, this report was just one more piece of paper your government wasted money on.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;"&gt;So I ask you, who were the bad guys at the G-20 and why are you allowing the controlled media to dictate the way you perceive what really happened there? The revolution will not be televised!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;"&gt;Lawrence McCurry&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span class="apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;"&gt;December 3, 2010&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4395994043314315746-86843816365823961?l=canadaawakes.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://canadaawakes.blogspot.com/feeds/86843816365823961/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://canadaawakes.blogspot.com/2010/12/media-guilty-in-g-20-way-main-stream.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4395994043314315746/posts/default/86843816365823961'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4395994043314315746/posts/default/86843816365823961'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://canadaawakes.blogspot.com/2010/12/media-guilty-in-g-20-way-main-stream.html' title='Media Guilty In G-20'/><author><name>Alarm Bells</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09069611063628571328</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TEB3ayWpkNI/AAAAAAAAAFs/RXWfHm9acm4/S220/103_1954.JPG'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4395994043314315746.post-3471762596569491910</id><published>2010-11-30T16:45:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2010-11-30T16:45:07.905-08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="center"&gt;WHO WAS THAT MASKED MAN ?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here is a story for the WTF file. It seems that the Truth movement now has a super hero working on our side. Yes that’s right, a masked super Hero using the simple name of “Truth” has been spotted at three different street actions two with In hours of each other. One on the east coast and the other on the west?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This masked hero dressed in a blue eye mask, Red Vail, Black outfit with a Black Duster Type Jacket with red gloves was spotted at a 9/11 truth action in California last week giving out literature and DVD’s and within an hour and a half , he was also spotted at a protest against the “Church of scientology” in Orlando, Florida the same day. The following day he was once again spotted at a protest in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Even if this new activist is a person with deep pockets and a ton of frequent flyer points there is no way he could have been at both protests within an hour of each other on the same day? At all of these actions this person was asked for his name and answered with the simple reply “TRUTH” &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He also asked his fellow activists not to photograph him and left the event in Winnipeg in a hurry when a fellow activist tried to take his picture anyway against his wishes. The internet stream is now buzzing with talk of this new “super Hero” and a rumor that Facebook this week deleted a page dedicated to the new hero of the Truth Movement. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This writer has gotten these stories from reliable sources and does not doubt this really happened, but I do have the following questions. How did this person pull off being at two places within an hour and a half when it would normally take you that long just to get to the airport? Why would he not tell fellow activists who he really is ? And why the wear a mask when that goes against everything the Truth movement is really about? Is it possible that what we have here is a human with super powers? Or could this be one of the elite with a private jet who has decided to change sides and start working with us and is not yet ready to admit who his family connections really are?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyone out there who may see this guy at an action or protest please try and get a picture of him and lets find out who this masked truther is. I for one would like an interview with this guy and get the story. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;Lawrence McCurry&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;Nov 30, 2010&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;﻿&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4395994043314315746-3471762596569491910?l=canadaawakes.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://canadaawakes.blogspot.com/feeds/3471762596569491910/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://canadaawakes.blogspot.com/2010/11/who-was-that-masked-man-here-is-story.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4395994043314315746/posts/default/3471762596569491910'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4395994043314315746/posts/default/3471762596569491910'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://canadaawakes.blogspot.com/2010/11/who-was-that-masked-man-here-is-story.html' title=''/><author><name>Alarm Bells</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09069611063628571328</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TEB3ayWpkNI/AAAAAAAAAFs/RXWfHm9acm4/S220/103_1954.JPG'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4395994043314315746.post-8395689535595477560</id><published>2010-11-09T17:10:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2010-11-09T18:57:46.534-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Port St. Lucie Family target of sheriff dept. over criticism of local free masons</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Georgia, &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;, serif; font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;Port St. Lucie Family target of sheriff dept. over criticism of local free masons &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Georgia, &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;, serif; font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Georgia, &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;, serif; font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;An internet radio host and his wife in Port St. Lucie Florida claim their home was invaded last night by a deputy of the St. Lucie county sheriff’s dept. while on the air.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The couple, Jeremiah &amp;amp; Samantha Holsclaw are late night hosts on internet radio station &lt;a href="http://www.nformdradio.com/"&gt;NFORMD radio&lt;/a&gt;. Jeremiah, known to his listeners as “Rev J” left the late night on air discussion known as “The Round Table” shortly after the start of the midnight show and turned the microphone over to his wife as he felt a pressing need to go to the drug store. His seven year old daughter was not feeling well and was running a small fever. As soon as Mr. Holsclaw and a friend left the house for the drug store, St. Lucie County deputy’s pounded on the couple’s door. Mrs. Holsclaw was startled and announced to her listeners that the police were at the door and left the microphone open as she answered the door. What followed was reminiscent of something one would expect of a Stalinist police state. According to Mrs. Holsclaw when she opened the door deputy Eric Wax and his partner officer Robert Funk pushed their way into the home against the protests of the radio hostess. The sheriff’s deputy at this point started barking orders and threats at the frightened woman waking her small children ( 5&amp;amp;7 years old ) Without stating the reason for the visit, deputy Wax began demanding access to the frightened children and threatening their mother with arrest and stating that “He would have the children taken away” if she did not allow him full access to her home and children on the spot.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;While this drama was unfolding on air another host at the station contacted Mr. Holsclaw on his cell phone and urged him to return home, other listeners posted the phone number and address of the St. Lucie sheriff’s County dept. and were contacting the media as it was unfolding live. Before the father of two and radio host even got back home, listeners from as far away as Scotland, England and Canada were posting messages of support and advice in the station’s chat room.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Within minutes “Rev J” returned and spoke to the deputy’s in the driveway of his home and informed them that he would not allow them to disrupt his family in the middle of the night without a warrant. Although the officers made another threat to arrest Mr. Holsclaw for a stolen shopping cart that someone had left on their property, cooler heads prevailed and the sheriff officers left without further incident. This may have been due to numerous calls to the department’s switchboard. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is not the first time this family has had problems with the St. Lucie county sheriff’s dept. Last November Mr. Holsclaw was charged with resisting arrest, a charge that was dismissed as the department had no grounds to arrest him in the first place. He has also been stopped and body searched since then for no good reason. The couple believes this trouble stems from the fact that they have been openly critical of the Free Mason origination on their “Truth Movement” internet radio station &lt;a href="http://nformedradio.com/"&gt;nformedradio.com&lt;/a&gt; . There have also been allegations in the town where they live that many of the members of the sheriff dept. and the courts are members of the Free Masons and that this may be a conflict of their duty as officers of the court.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mark Weinberg Public Information Officer of the St. Lucie County Sheriff's Office made the following statement : The St. Lucie County Sheriff's Office does not harass anyone with regard to whether someone is or is not a Free Mason or an anti-Free Mason. (End Quote)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The fact that Free Masons world wide have a large number of police, court officials and politicians as members and that this organization is alleged to have ties with a shadowy group of people who are actively engaged in pushing a new world order agenda has many people wondering if these officers of the courts are engaged in activity that runs counter to the constitutions and freedoms of all people of the world.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;Lawrence McCurry&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align:

Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;It’s difficult to understand the push towards the globalization of Canada’s economy without buying into a concept that has been widely dismissed by many as the conspiracy theory of a one world government or the New World Order. Make no mistake here, globalization is real and has been talked about extensively by our Prime Ministers both conservative and Liberal, Both &lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4fafvg07k84&amp;amp;feature=player_embedded"&gt;&lt;b&gt;former P.M. Paul Martin&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt; and current &lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x7XqoJ3N2Ug&amp;amp;feature=related"&gt;&lt;b&gt;P.M. Stephen Harper&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt; have recently been speaking on the subject. It appears that both major parties in Canada are on the same page when it comes to the subject of globalization, even to the point where both talk about Canada giving up its sovereignty. This is a key point in understanding what these men are talking about, if you don’t fully understand the word sovereignty please grab a dictionary and thesaurus and look it up right now.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;"&gt;So just what is Globalization ?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;"&gt;Well these two men would tell you it is nothing more than a&lt;span style="color: black;"&gt; complex series of economic, social, technological, cultural, and political changes seen as increasing, integration, and interaction between people and companies in World Wide locations. A trend toward increased flow of goods, services, money, and ideas across national borders and the subsequent integration of the global economy. Trade agreements, nothing more. So Canada can sell more to the world! Sounds good? Martin even has a cute little jelly bean story that he uses to explain it all. Well there is more to it, a lot more and they don’t talk much about that.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;"&gt;The World Bank&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;"&gt; : &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;“Globalization - the growing integration of economies and societies around the world...“&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;"&gt;World Trade Organization (WTO)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;"&gt; : “Globalization can be defined as a historical stage of accelerated expansion of market capitalism, like the one experienced in the 19th century with the industrial revolution. It is a fundamental transformation in societies because of the recent technological revolution which has led to a recombining of the economic and social forces on a new territorial dimension“&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;"&gt;International Forum on Globalization (IFG)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;"&gt; : “Globalization is the present worldwide drive toward a globalized economic system &lt;i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"&gt;&lt;u&gt;dominated&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/i&gt; by supranational corporate trade and banking institutions that are &lt;i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"&gt;&lt;u&gt;not accountable to democratic processes or national governments“&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;"&gt;What your Prime Minister has not said is “Well Canada you can kiss democracy goodbye” The reason he won’t say this is because you have already lost it. The same supranational corporate trade and banking institutions that the IFG is talking about have already taken over the government of Canada (and most other countries) and the way they have done it is by stacking the major political parties in Canada with their own handpicked people. It is fact, not some conspiracy theory that most of our Prime Ministers, Cabinet Ministers and many provincial premiers have worked for &lt;span style="color: #474b4e;"&gt;Paul Desmarais and &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_Corporation_of_Canada"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;"&gt;power Corp.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color: #474b4e; font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;"&gt; When everybody we elect to Parliament comes from Big corporate and banking interests and go back to them when we vote them out, why would they not work towards handing over the entire country and everyone in it over to the same corporate and Banking control!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #474b4e; font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;Already we have seen our government start to dismantle our country though bills like &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X7_0HlCwb8A"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;"&gt;C-6&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color: #474b4e; font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;"&gt;, and &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ud4bYJXIrAE"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;"&gt;C-36&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color: #474b4e; font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;"&gt; which gives control of all your food and medicine over to these &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;"&gt;supranational corporate concerns, up to the point of kicking down your door to enforce the global regulations. ( No court order needed ) The recent G-20 conference in Toronto was also a very good example of what these globalists think of our Charter of Rights and Freedoms. The Canadian government has been aggressively working towards plans like the security and prosperity proposal (SPP) and The North American Union (NAU). In case you didn’t know, these are plans to merge Canada, The United States and Mexico into one big super Union like the European Union (E.U.) to standardize the laws, regulations, currency and social policies and remove the borders to allow the free flow of the labor force. If you have not already heard about this it is because the media (TV, newspapers and radio) are already owned by these corporations and bankers thanks to a change in the media ownership laws by globalist P.M. Brian Mulroney.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;"&gt;There is nothing that these globalists do not want control of, our schools, prison’s, utilities, hospitals, roads and infrastructure and our national parks. I recently found out that even the street lights in my city (Toronto) are now privately owned. Every government building, road, telephone pole, utility and government service sold to or controlled by the private sector. You may even see your prisons, schools and hospitals being run by private super corporations with McDonalds serving the food. Don’t laugh its being done in the U.S. already. Instead of large corporations and banks paying taxes, your tax money will all go to them. A lot of it already does. Corporate subsidies or what is commonly referred to as corporate welfare is at an all time high. The banks are raking in over a hundred and seventy million dollars a day from Canadian tax payers in interest on the deficit. That money could have been created interest free from the Bank of Canada if not for globalization. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Should globalization continue under the NAU Mexicans and Americans could freely come to Canada to live and work, social programs that Canadians enjoy like universal health care and others would suffer if not disappear altogether. Our standard of living will not go up but down, that is unless you are a banker, corporate executive or a politician. I’m sure police and government inspectors will do ok. But there is no question about the rest of us, it will not be pleasant. More than just the standardized size of Jelly beans that Mr. Martin would have you believe.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Once globalization is complete you will have four major trading blocs the NAU the E.U the recently formed African Union and the yet to be formed Asian Union. At this point these four blocs would then form a world council with a world currency governed by The World Bank under the U.N., and by the way, this will not be a democracy because super corporations and banks don’t roll that way.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;"&gt;This is the globalization of the Canadian economy, not my opinion. Recently &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=McWAnMWoSyY"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;"&gt;Prime Minister Stephen Harper said&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;"&gt; “ Canada does not really have an economy any more, We are in a global economy, Some people may not like it but it’s a reality” As far as Harper is concerned it’s a done deal and you have no say, That’s just the way things are. Well truth be known things are like that because Harper and Martin and others have made it that way. The truth is the global economy needs Canada not the other way around. Canada has no need for an outfit like Wal-Mart to sell us junk that is made in China. All those jobs that have left this country can come back to Canada and we can make our own junk and sell it in a Canadian store that we could call say…..Eaton’s and if that global economy, those global supranational corporate trade and banking institutions want Canadian lumber, Sudbury nickel, PEI spuds they can make us a fair deal on our terms.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;Free Trade, foreign bankers, the American military complex, Chinese toys and tainted pet food, Corporations and politicians that will have our Canadian sovereignty can GO TO HELL!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;No Mr. Harper some people don’t like it and I’m telling them they don’t have to accept it either! Canadians can take back our sovereignty, We can elect a government that will take control back from the banks the power to create our own money, We can take back our natural resources from the multinational corporations that think they own them and produce what Canada needs right here in Canada. If the rest of the world, that global community, wants what Canada has to offer, let them come to us deal fairly and on OUR terms.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;"&gt;Globalization is not a reality Mr. Harper.

Canada.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Times New

type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: Times, &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;, serif; font-size: x-large;"&gt;Toronto was the ball in the New World Order Cup&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It’s now been a week since the G-8,G-20 summits in Toronto. I’ve felt I needed to take this time to step back and look at what really happened here before I write about it. There are two aspects to consider, the crime that was committed behind the fence and crimes committed on the other side of the fence in what the police did on the streets to draw attention away from it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At the G-20 meeting world leaders met in luxury to discuss how the people of their country’s would adhere to fiscal consolidation and international financial reform to pay off deficits and to bring government spending in line with GNP, while at the same time instituting taxes to combat global climate issues and promote green initiatives . Bank taxes to fund the IMF World Bank were left up to individual countries (Their banking systems). Our Prime minister stressed over and over at a post G-20 press conference that &lt;a href="http://www.cpac.ca/forms/index.asp?dsp=template&amp;amp;act=view3&amp;amp;pagetype=vod&amp;amp;lang=e&amp;amp;clipID=4234"&gt;Canada is in a global economy and that Canadians may not like it as it’s a loss of our national Sovereignty&lt;/a&gt;….If you cut though all the political double speak, what was being done at the G-20 was plans were being made to tax the populations of the world to an even greater extent for the benefit of the banks who all these politicians are in the employ of! At the same time more planning was made to convert the economic monetary systems of the world in anticipation of the one world government and the one world monetary system of the IMF &amp;amp; U.N. World Bank. This fiscal consolidation and international financial reform they speak of is also referred to as austerity measures or in plain speak the cutting of social programs like health care, education, and public infrastructure so more of your tax money can be given to the banks, disguised as the &lt;span id="goog_2079084262"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://video.google.ca/videoplay?docid=5352106773770802849#"&gt;system of theft that has been set up&lt;span id="goog_2079084263"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt; as compounded interest on sham loans of money printed by the banks and loaned to your government.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Make no mistake about this people. The Canadian and world governments have been taken over by private banks and mega corporations to install a one world government or new world order as some have called it. This world government is not a democracy, it is a fascist dictatorship. You do not get a vote, they think they own you! Why is it that Stephen Harper and Liberal prime Ministers before him like&lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xDdlY3vqmzg"&gt; Paul Martin have all come out and publicly stated that Canada must give up its Sovereignty? &lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Please grab a dictionary or a thesaurus and look up the word Sovereignty right now! Your fathers and grandfathers fought and died for this sovereignty that your government is so Horney to give away! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The controlled main stream media must also take some blame for everything that happened over the weekend as well, for not telling the truth about what the G-20 meetings are really all about, for not reporting on what the protesters were protesting about or how police were violating people’s rights under the charter since long before the meetings ever began.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;While leaders inside the fence furthered their plans to fleece the people though the criminal banking system, outside the fence the police gave the public a lesson in how foolish people have been in believing the constitution and the charter of rights and freedoms is more than just another piece of toilet paper. What I witnessed over those three days was something I thought only happened in third world banana republics or communist countries. What I saw happening on a very large scale was&lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HZgjX5vHt2o&amp;amp;feature=player_embedded"&gt; illegal search and seizures&lt;/a&gt;, mass assaults on people who were committing no crimes and mass arrests of people who again were committing no crime. In many cases these people were not even protesters, but merely people walking on the streets of the city they called home. After the police had illegally thrown what may have been well over a thousand people into a make shift cage, they admitted the law they used to arrest them &lt;a href="http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/national/toronto/police-admit-deliberately-misleading-public-on-expanded-security-fence-law/article1622864/"&gt;never existed!&lt;/a&gt; Many were held for up to twenty-four hours, their hands bound with plastic ties, in makeshift cages with no place to sit except a cold dirty concrete floor. Twenty to thirty people in a small cage with a portable toilet, no door, no toilet paper, made to beg for water and food, which they were seldom given, no access to medical attention or a telephone to call a lawyer. Women were strip searched by male officers, not given access to female sanitary products, made to use the open toilet while male officers watched and made comments about how they would be &lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1sbwOTQ4iIo"&gt;raped&lt;/a&gt; in prison. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The police chief Bill Blair quickly went on television telling lies and making lame excuses for the police excesses. He claimed rubber bullets were never used when they were clearly shown doing so with the protesters picking up the bullets and showing them on TV. He also showed a &lt;a href="http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/national/toronto/weapons-seized-in-g20-arrests-not-what-they-seem/article1622761/"&gt;cache of weapons&lt;/a&gt; he claims were confiscated from protesters that later turned out to be toys taken from a man who was stopped on his way to a role playing game. The padded arrows, chain saw and rubber ax were no more than props for the game.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When it became clear the chief was floundering in public, the Mayor and premier of Ontario went on television to back him up, declaring he did a fine job under difficult circumstances. That after the action of the Black Block Anarchists on Saturday, the stepping up of police actions were justified.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let’s look at how the police handled the block then. In my &lt;a href="http://canadaawakes.blogspot.com/2010/06/fear-and-mayhem-in-toronto.html"&gt;last article &lt;/a&gt;I recounted how I had witnessed the police allow the BB past police lines in Saturday’s march and head towards Yonge St. to break windows where police had mysteriously disappeared and how police all but put a bow on a police car that was given over to protesters to burn while police stood back and watched. This car was not torched by the mob but by a couple of masked anarchists while most of the crowd stood back and took pictures. In fact it is the very way that police responded to the tactics of the Black Block that has led to wide spread speculation that some of these masked vandals may have been police provocateurs. There is no doubt in my mind this was all done on orders from above to justify the obscene amount of money spent on this meeting of world criminals.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well Premier McGuinty, Mayor Miller, Chief Blair know this, Property damage committed by a small handful of vandals does not justify violating the rights of thousands of people! You along with Stephen Harper have committed a crime that far exceeds any crime that was committed by masked anarchists over the G-20 weekend! A crime that was perpetrated on all Canadians. The Canadian people may demand that you all be put in a cell for what you have done and they will be right in doing so.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;Lawrence McCurry&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;July 6, 2010&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;For more on how our government is selling you out watch the new film from Press For Truth&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;“United We Fall”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://pressfortruth.ca/news_dtls.php?rid=124&amp;amp;catid=1"&gt;http://pressfortruth.ca/news_dtls.php?rid=124&amp;amp;catid=1&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4395994043314315746-85461900103868151?l=canadaawakes.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://canadaawakes.blogspot.com/feeds/85461900103868151/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://canadaawakes.blogspot.com/2010/07/toronto-was-ball-in-new-world-order-cup.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4395994043314315746/posts/default/85461900103868151'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4395994043314315746/posts/default/85461900103868151'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://canadaawakes.blogspot.com/2010/07/toronto-was-ball-in-new-world-order-cup.html' title=''/><author><name>Alarm Bells</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09069611063628571328</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TEB3ayWpkNI/AAAAAAAAAFs/RXWfHm9acm4/S220/103_1954.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4395994043314315746.post-1650530688645971960</id><published>2010-06-28T13:47:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-06-28T13:47:04.020-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Fear and mayhem in Toronto</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Times, &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;, serif; font-size: x-large;"&gt;Fear and mayhem in Toronto&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;So much has happened to my city over the last three days, in this report I am only going to try and give you a quick over view of what I personally saw and experienced and leave the political commentary for later. I’m tired after five days of protest and morally discouraged. As I sit here just after midnight Sunday I almost feel like giving up trying to explain what happened and just give up writing altogether. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Friday June 24 – Allen Gardens&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What a difference a day makes! Friday’s protest marked a drastic change in attitude from the police in Toronto. Up to that point the police were telling protesters they only wanted peace and were friendly with protesters, starting with Friday’s OCAP protest the police clearly had a change of heart about being nice guys and started confronting peaceful protesters for no reason.&lt;br /&gt;As I got off the streetcar at Allen Gardens where the protest was to start from, Police were grabbing people entering the park ripping protest signs out of their hands, destroying them, and searching people’s bags whether they consented to being searched or not .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TCjxIsCEWkI/AAAAAAAAADU/oe6aJMjBI8o/s1600/103_2115.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; cssfloat: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="150" ru="true" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TCjxIsCEWkI/AAAAAAAAADU/oe6aJMjBI8o/s200/103_2115.JPG" width="200" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TCjwvSuQjBI/AAAAAAAAADM/pDc95KuyjQM/s1600/103_2117.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; cssfloat: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="150" ru="true" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TCjwvSuQjBI/AAAAAAAAADM/pDc95KuyjQM/s200/103_2117.JPG" width="200" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;I watched as one police officer played tug of war with a protester over a protest sign while another ripped an umbrella from the hands of a very old lady, handed their booty off to another officer who took them away with the old lady running behind trying to get her brolly back. ( She did not, they stole and destroyed it )&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TCjyVhatWkI/AAAAAAAAADk/h1b7wm-F-o8/s1600/103_2114.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; cssfloat: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="150" ru="true" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TCjyVhatWkI/AAAAAAAAADk/h1b7wm-F-o8/s200/103_2114.JPG" width="200" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TCjyFq9sfhI/AAAAAAAAADc/vrGQEx9b81c/s1600/103_2108.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; cssfloat: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="150" ru="true" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TCjyFq9sfhI/AAAAAAAAADc/vrGQEx9b81c/s200/103_2108.JPG" width="200" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TCj1UDhXfBI/AAAAAAAAADs/hBtIwdO_tB8/s1600/103_2110.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="150" ru="true" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TCj1UDhXfBI/AAAAAAAAADs/hBtIwdO_tB8/s200/103_2110.JPG" width="200" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;As I started to photograph this scene I had an officer bark orders at me that I was not allowed to stand there and take pictures and to move away, when I ignored his request he ordered this officer to stand in front of me and put up his hands to block my camera. After dogging the officer that was blocking me for a minute or two the sergeant decided to take pictures of me, so I took one back.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TCj7IRqhj5I/AAAAAAAAAD8/H0bXn80zDDU/s1600/103_2116.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; cssfloat: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="150" ru="true" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TCj7IRqhj5I/AAAAAAAAAD8/H0bXn80zDDU/s200/103_2116.JPG" width="200" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TCj69Yamm2I/AAAAAAAAAD0/msL4b2mTLw4/s1600/103_2124.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; cssfloat: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="150" ru="true" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TCj69Yamm2I/AAAAAAAAAD0/msL4b2mTLw4/s200/103_2124.JPG" width="200" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;After this I walked into the park where it was a party atmosphere.&lt;br /&gt;With bands playing festive music and people making speeches the ugliness of police at the entrance to the park was quickly forgotten. There were many disabled people in this crowd listening intently to speeches about how the government is discontinuing the special diet allowance for people on disability and how these people find it impossible to live on what they receive. People also talked about the ten year waiting list for disabled people to get affordable housing. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TCj7-1Eo1-I/AAAAAAAAAEE/7P6M7CW1gX4/s1600/103_2126.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; cssfloat: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="150" ru="true" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TCj7-1Eo1-I/AAAAAAAAAEE/7P6M7CW1gX4/s200/103_2126.JPG" width="200" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;As expected this was not reported in the media. The buzz in the park was about a secret law that the government pulled out of their butt that nobody had ever heard of, the law which forces a person to produce I.D. on demand and failure to do so meant three months and a $500.00 fine. I was not the only one who thought this smacked of Nazi Germany.&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TCj87BPdYnI/AAAAAAAAAEM/m0aqoZ55m-U/s1600/103_2133.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; cssfloat: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="150" ru="true" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TCj87BPdYnI/AAAAAAAAAEM/m0aqoZ55m-U/s200/103_2133.JPG" width="200" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;br /&gt;After the speeches the homeless who call the park home and the protesters lined up for a fabulous vegetarian lunch that was filling and very tasty. Well fed and calmed down from the harsh police welcome to the park we were ready to start the march. The crowd of over a thousand people started to make their way up Carlton Street. I joined the march with a group of topless women thinking that was the safe crew to march with. The march was peaceful until we hit yonge St. where the police threw a line across the street trying to stop the march there. The police backed off their line and let the march go on one more block to Bay Street where they held the line and let the march go no further. Except for one incident where police waded into the crowd to arrest one protester and shoot a blast of pepper spray into the crowd for good measure. The protest was very peaceful and there was no good reason for the violence at that time. From where I was it looked like the &lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D7OA920pbv8"&gt;police attacked for no good reason&lt;/a&gt;. For the most part the crowd was very peaceful and the police did not attack again. The next day that was all to change, On Saturday all hell was to break loose in Toronto the good. &lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Saturday June 25 – Queens Park (Ontario Provincial Legislature) &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;Saturday was a hot humid day and it was raining cats and dogs as I got off the subway at Queens Park. Thousands of people standing in the rain in the park, spirits were high in the crowd as those in particular groups formed together ready to fall into place in the march as a group. Many, many different groups with their banners, whole family’s with their children, union groups and native groups with colours &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TCj-wxcVRPI/AAAAAAAAAEU/2z5HzgAnBkQ/s1600/103_2156.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; cssfloat: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="150" ru="true" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TCj-wxcVRPI/AAAAAAAAAEU/2z5HzgAnBkQ/s200/103_2156.JPG" width="200" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;flying. Everybody happy and hopeful, except one small group of about thirty people, all dressed in black, faces covered, huddled in a very tight small group under a tree. The Black Block was here with about 10 to 15 unmasked supporters who ran around blocking and swatting at any camera trying to take a picture of them.&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TCj_Xt0sFQI/AAAAAAAAAEc/BzjNjEfRwF0/s1600/103_2178.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; cssfloat: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="150" ru="true" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TCj_Xt0sFQI/AAAAAAAAAEc/BzjNjEfRwF0/s200/103_2178.JPG" width="200" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;br /&gt;At the time I thought to myself that they were going to start trouble and if the cops wanted to, they could get these guys all at once with little trouble from the union protesters who did not want them in the march anyway. The other protesters stayed away from these guys and there were people openly asking why they did not get scooped up by the heavy police presence.So the march began, at least 30 thousand people with this small group of criminals right smack in the middle of the line. The march was to go down university to Queen St., up Queen to Spadina and back north again to the park. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TCkBbCK6nWI/AAAAAAAAAEs/BQS9_DzFl4s/s1600/103_2180.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; cssfloat: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="150" ru="true" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TCkBbCK6nWI/AAAAAAAAAEs/BQS9_DzFl4s/s200/103_2180.JPG" width="200" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TCkBKVI445I/AAAAAAAAAEk/yTiCZmWe-rM/s1600/103_2185.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; cssfloat: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="150" ru="true" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TCkBKVI445I/AAAAAAAAAEk/yTiCZmWe-rM/s200/103_2185.JPG" width="200" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Everybody knew the trouble would start at the bottom of the U, which was closest to the fence but still blocks away from the 20 meeting. Again why did they not take out the block before the trouble started? As the march made its way down the street the sun came out and people enjoyed the company of many different groups together in one purpose. &lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TCkCOXdFByI/AAAAAAAAAE0/p8fxv0XBNtA/s1600/103_2184.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; cssfloat: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="150" ru="true" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TCkCOXdFByI/AAAAAAAAAE0/p8fxv0XBNtA/s200/103_2184.JPG" width="200" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;The police however like the day before, again not being friendly. As the march got to the bottom of the loop and turned north on Queen Street a line of riot police fell in and set up a line behind end of the march, when the end of the march, where I was by this time reached the point where the march turned north again it happened. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There was some kind of device going off putting out a lot of smoke, I don’t know if this was set off by police or if it was fireworks by the free Tibet group but almost if on cue, the black block changed direction and came running back around the corner towards the police line at the rear of the march spooking hundreds of people not knowing which way to run. Was there trouble up ahead? Were the block running from the police or right at them? Nobody knew where to go, we were a couple of hundred people that were left behind from the march and most of the crowd were chasing the BB to find out where they were going. What happened next was hard to believe, the police let the Black Block anarchists go right by or though the police line ( I could not see which ) and boxed in the innocent protesters. The black clad anarchists had run off as a group unmolested by police to run up Yonge Street breaking windows.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TCkDVr0rquI/AAAAAAAAAE8/Q4HCT43ydlA/s1600/103_2224.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; cssfloat: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="150" ru="true" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TCkDVr0rquI/AAAAAAAAAE8/Q4HCT43ydlA/s200/103_2224.JPG" width="200" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TCkDxWz8qRI/AAAAAAAAAFE/K2P61ASPbXo/s1600/103_2226.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; cssfloat: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="150" ru="true" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TCkDxWz8qRI/AAAAAAAAAFE/K2P61ASPbXo/s200/103_2226.JPG" width="200" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It would seem all the police that were on Yonge St. had disappeared to leave the BB to run amok while they boxed in whoever was left behind. After a long time of hanging out trying to figure out what to do next, most people went the way the parade had gone as this was the only way open to leave the area. What happened next was odd as well, an old police cruiser had parked behind the police line, the police moved the line back leaving the old cruiser behind to be torched by the young wanna be’s that were left behind, (mostly kids looking for trouble and news media that seemed to know something was going to happen for their benefit. ) When the car was torched the police just stood back and watched, it seemed to me that the trunk may have been filled with live ammunition of some type.&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TCkEWA6_ZzI/AAAAAAAAAFM/3bdERGEGt2k/s1600/103_2216.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; cssfloat: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="150" ru="true" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TCkEWA6_ZzI/AAAAAAAAAFM/3bdERGEGt2k/s200/103_2216.JPG" width="200" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;br /&gt;I took this as a sign to leave the area before I ended up in the police “rat cage” for the rest of the weekend. I had to walk a long way in the wrong direction to try to loop around back to the subway. Along the way I stopped and sat on the steps of a daycare across from the Art Gallery of Ontario and spoke with a pretty young protester named Anna who was an exchange student from L.A. she told me that the day was kind of like the day of the L.A. riots and warned tomorrow may be worse, she was right. By the time I reached the main drag of the city I found the police had closed down the public transit to the downtown core trapping thousands of people with no way out except to walk.I had already been walking all day and &lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TCkFGRLjyjI/AAAAAAAAAFU/NWPrueQVH5M/s1600/103_2220.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; cssfloat: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="150" ru="true" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TCkFGRLjyjI/AAAAAAAAAFU/NWPrueQVH5M/s200/103_2220.JPG" width="200" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;was beat,lots of other people were in the same boat, it would be getting dark soon and was starting to rain again. On the busiest corner in Canada, Yonge and Dundas I met a 9/11 truther named Mike that was giving out literature. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mike told me that at one point hours earlier, all the cops in the area had piled into the black SUV’s they had been tooling around town in and disappeared, shortly after the Black Block boys who had been in my march had come running up the street and started mayhem on a scale not seen in this city before. As I walked up Canada’s longest street I felt like I was a refugee walking though a war zone. This was a neighborhood I knew well as I had worked here for years as a young man. Windows were broken all the way up the street to collage where I am told the BB boys had changed clothes and gone north heading back towards Queens Park and the U of T grounds, a good place to play cat and mouse with the cops. As I dragged my tired butt up the street though block after block of broken glass, I started thinking about what I’d seen that day. Could the police have planned it this way? It seemed crazy, was all this destruction not what they were trying to avoid?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TCkF4VZYiaI/AAAAAAAAAFc/7fE3tMFf6Ns/s1600/103_2232.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="150" ru="true" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TCkF4VZYiaI/AAAAAAAAAFc/7fE3tMFf6Ns/s200/103_2232.JPG" width="200" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TCkGJHTHAAI/AAAAAAAAAFk/_7-TYlL_EKY/s1600/103_2233.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="150" ru="true" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TCkGJHTHAAI/AAAAAAAAAFk/_7-TYlL_EKY/s200/103_2233.JPG" width="200" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left" class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;I needed more information and a a place to rest for a couple of hours before hiking my way up to where the public transit might still be running, that’s if the whole thing had not been shut down. In my whole life I could not ever remember them shutting the subway down.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I found a pay phone and called an old girlfriend who lived in a neighborhood just a little north and east referred to in Toronto as “The Gay Ghetto” As I got to the homosexual strip in town it was business as usual. The cafes were full of people and it seemed like just another Saturday night in the district of trendy gay bars and restaurants. You would never know that just blocks away it was as if a bomb had gone off. When I got to my friends apt. I was greeted with a large glass of Ice water and a glass of wine. I collapsed on her sofa with her large dog and turned on the news as she made me a much needed meal. What I was watching on television blew my mind; three or four police cars had been torched. Looked like the police were getting rid of some older cars in their fleet ( none of the shiny new black SUV’s were burning just older cars ) I stayed at my friends place for an hour and a half then started the march north where I learned the East-West subway line was still running. I got to my home in east Toronto just before midnight. My cat welcomed me wanting to be fed and I fell asleep slumped in front of my computer.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sunday June 27&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sunday morning found me a little shell shocked, I was receiving e-mail and facebook messages about protests that were to take place in an hour or two at the temporary holding cages where police were keeping protesters in conditions that are worse than those we keep animals in at the humane centre. The TV was filled with images of police brutally mashing protesters into the sidewalks with background voice overs of people calling in to support what violence the police were committing on its own citizens. The media was starting the spin on what had happened the day before. They would tone that spin down a little (just a little) later in the day when their own reporters started getting arrested too. I decided to stay at home and ride the controlled media live coverage on Sunday, I could see which way the wind was blowing and knew it was going to be even uglier than the day before. As the TV gave me more rubber bullets and tear gas, police raids on the U of T campus where the BB boys were staying. Again if they knew where they were why did they not pick them up before the trouble began? It seems to me that leading up to Saturday they had no problem arresting people for no reason at all like &lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rq9ruy4WeKM&amp;amp;feature=related"&gt;Charlie Veitch of The Love Police.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I wanted to get started on this article on Sunday but could still not wrap my head around all that was still happening and did not start writing this until well after midnight. All day I’ve been dealing with hate mail and comments made to me on facebook from people who thought I should be in jail just for going to protest meetings this week. A sample of the type of things I was dealing with Sunday can be summed up by a facebook message I received from my own little brother before he deleted me from his Facebook page.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;"hey asshole, I have a right to express my opinion just as much as your twisted one, and tell me big man, just what were they protesting for? Maybe if they contributed to society they would feel better about themselves, you and your little band of punks should be shot, go play with your little pals and destroy property, go on now, just be home before the lights come on little fella, oh by the way if these people want socialism they can move elsewhere."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Over the last year I’ve had a major operation, my mother died and I’ve broken up with my wife of over twenty years. I have lost my business, my family and have been trying to live on the little I receive from disability. Now after days of protest and being pushed around by police, suffering with breathing problems because of the weather and strain of being on my feet for days, I find out how much I am hated by &lt;strong&gt;one&lt;/strong&gt; of my two brothers for trying to save this country from people who would sell it out from underneath us. To save it from men who would give away the Sovereignty that my late father fought for in the Second World War, to save this country that I love and care so passionately about.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is my account; this is what I saw and what I did. I’m done; I have nothing left but tears. Make of it what you will.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;Lawrence McCurry &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div

Waves&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:

/&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On Wednesday at the G-20, Stephen Harper’s &lt;a href="http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/world/g8-g20/news/harper-defends-marketing-value-of-fake-lake/article1597178/"&gt;1.9 million dollar fake lake&lt;/a&gt; made waves as a small earth quake was felt in Toronto. The tsunami in Harper’s lake is small potatoes compared to the wave of protesters that will hit the city on the weekend.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This week Harper endorsed new &lt;a href="http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/politics/ottawa-notebook/canada-hits-iran-with-more-sanctions/article1613278/"&gt;Sanctions against Iran&lt;/a&gt; in support of the United Nations and the American military complex. He is also playing host to Chinese president Hu Jintao who as well as attending the G-20 is making his first state visit to Canada as well. Hu said that China is ready to work with Canada to further expand exchanges and cooperation in various fields, push forward the China-Canada strategic partnership and bring even more benefits to the people of the two countries and around the world. It makes me wonder what people Hu is referring to here? In his own country this “strategic partnership” means slave wages and poverty and in Canada it means long lines at the unemployment office and food banks. Maybe the people Hu is talking about here are the ones that own Wal-Mart, as well as the corporate weasels and politicians that are getting rich off this partnership. All I know is that neither Harper nor any of the past Prime Ministers have asked me or any other Canadian if they thought it was a good idea to get so chummy with a communist dictatorship that has no regard at all for human rights.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Wednesday’s protest was a toxic tour of Toronto, about 300 people concerned about the U.S. oil spill and the environmental and social impacts of Canada's extractive industries such as the Alberta tar sands. The march was peaceful like all of the protests so far in Toronto.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TCQIl7of3ZI/AAAAAAAAACM/yxAEzReF90E/s1600/103_2082.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; cssfloat: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="150" ru="true" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TCQIl7of3ZI/AAAAAAAAACM/yxAEzReF90E/s200/103_2082.JPG" width="200" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;Thursday Morning brought me to Queens Park and the G-20 NATIVE RESISTANCE protest. This was the biggest protest so far this week. I got to the south lawn of Queens Park just after 11:00 A.M. and the protest was well under way with speakers and drummers on the steps of the Ontario Parliament building.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TCQJDY6GxdI/AAAAAAAAACU/ehgOsaDUaV4/s1600/103_2081.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; cssfloat: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="150" ru="true" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TCQJDY6GxdI/AAAAAAAAACU/ehgOsaDUaV4/s200/103_2081.JPG" width="200" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;Most of the large police presence kept to the perimeter of the park as the native organizers had their own security presence in red t-shirts that made sure the protest remained peaceful.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TCQKHiqwMMI/AAAAAAAAACc/UXmhk3lFWwM/s1600/103_2093.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="150" ru="true" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TCQKHiqwMMI/AAAAAAAAACc/UXmhk3lFWwM/s200/103_2093.JPG" width="200" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TCQKgSj8kZI/AAAAAAAAACk/X_Sy4oe-ysk/s1600/103_2101.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="150" ru="true" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TCQKgSj8kZI/AAAAAAAAACk/X_Sy4oe-ysk/s200/103_2101.JPG" width="200" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;After about an hour of speeches and song by native leaders that wished to bring native issues and the state of our mother earth to the attention of the world leaders, the march started. Well over 1500 protesters and media then began the march down University Ave. with a large gang of police on bicycles riding ahead to line the route.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TCQLMw1qsGI/AAAAAAAAACs/VppxHzApxMU/s1600/103_2097.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; cssfloat: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="150" ru="true" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TCQLMw1qsGI/AAAAAAAAACs/VppxHzApxMU/s200/103_2097.JPG" width="200" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;At one point I fell to the back of the march not moving as fast as I might have as a younger man and a friendly red shirted native security man bringing up the rear stopped to make sure I was ok and to warn me to keep up with the protest to make sure there would be no trouble with the police present. After a short stop to chant outside the American consulate the march moved on to the Eaton Centre at Queen and Yonge St.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;After the march I paid a visit to the Convergence Space at 1226&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;Queen st. W, &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TCQL2jS5_KI/AAAAAAAAAC0/WJ1IqDrYu3Q/s1600/103_2105.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; cssfloat: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="150" ru="true" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TCQL2jS5_KI/AAAAAAAAAC0/WJ1IqDrYu3Q/s200/103_2105.JPG" width="200" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;The Convergence space is run by the Toronto community mobilization network and is a sort of head quarters for all the protests that have been taking place in Toronto this week. Right at the door I was told that as an activist I was welcome to come in and put my feet up and have something to eat, as a journalist I was not welcome, no pictures, no interviews, with anybody, Period. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TCQML1pmYlI/AAAAAAAAAC8/ZUX-E_JMrhE/s1600/103_2106.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; cssfloat: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" ru="true" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TCQML1pmYlI/AAAAAAAAAC8/ZUX-E_JMrhE/s320/103_2106.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Since after a long march I was thirsty and tired I pocketed my note book and Camera and as a fellow protester I stepped behind the big black Curtain to a large open space. There were large tables with fresh food piled high and a water cooler that I made a bee line for. Pretty young tattooed girls were making food for protesters that I assumed were coming later and for the very short time I stayed I was made to feel welcome.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;As southern Ontario and around the city is hit with severe weather, tornados and even an earth quake, The G-20 and the protesters are the issue that is foremost&amp;nbsp;in the minds of the people of Toronto.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;Amidst police paranoia and common type arrests that are being blamed on G20 security, the world leaders start to roll into town. As these leaders nosh on goodies and expensive drink prepared by a team of world class chefs at tax payers expense, young protesters spread their sleeping bags on concrete floors and give thanks for scrounged and donated food. You can’t help but catch the enthusiasm and dedicated spirit of these young protesters that only wish to make this a better world for all of us.

Not only does this show how displeased the Canadian public have become with the way the Harper government makes arrogant decisions that will affect all Canadians for years to come, but how disillusioned we have become with the Canadian political system.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;From talking to some protesters I have also come to the conclusion that not only are Canadians not happy about the arbitrary decisions made by the government but the lack of realistic coverage from the main stream media on the issues facing Canada and the fact that they have dropped the ball when it comes to holding the government accountable for the little they do report on. Yesterday the media gave wide coverage to a poll by Harris-Decima that said three quarters of the people polled were “ok” with the one billion dollar price tag of the G-8,G20 conference and quoted pollster &lt;a href="http://www.ctv.ca/CTVNews/Canada/20100620/g8-g20-poll-100620/"&gt;Doug Anderson who made comments like "They are important meetings, more for symbolism than productivity&lt;/a&gt;," Of course what they did not mention is that Harris-Decima and their mouth piece have long been the Progressive Conservative party’s polling company of choice and having worked very briefly for this company when it was called by another name and Brian Mulroney was running for office I can tell you that the outcome of any poll or survey can be rigged just by the way you ask the questions. Personally I find it hard to believe that seventy five percent of Canadians are “ok” with the obscene amount of money the government has put into this meeting.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Protesters hit the streets of Toronto yesterday amongst an overly large police presence that wrongly believed they could dictate the route the protesters would take and control the protest with sheer numbers of police in the sky, on bicycle, horseback and foot. While the protest remained peaceful they did manage to occupy a gas station for a short time and disrupt traffic in the downtown core to make a point to the police that were present. Their protest would not be controlled or shut down by the threat of violence and intimidation on the part of the Toronto police dept. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Today’s protest (June 22) in contrast was more like one big street party,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TCGI5aMB58I/AAAAAAAAABs/KWXOfEd1o-s/s1600/103_2052.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" ru="true" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TCGI5aMB58I/AAAAAAAAABs/KWXOfEd1o-s/s320/103_2052.JPG" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TCGJR5cicyI/AAAAAAAAAB0/RWUjF0mj5rU/s1600/103_2064.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; cssfloat: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" ru="true" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TCGJR5cicyI/AAAAAAAAAB0/RWUjF0mj5rU/s320/103_2064.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;hosted by Toronto Community Mobilization Network and The Queer and Trans folk network. Spokesperson Roe Velasquez wished to let the leaders of the G-20 know that gay issues such as gay hate crime have been on the rise and must be addressed in Toronto and worldwide. At the start of the protest it seemed the protesters were almost outnumbered by media and police. Soon the crowd swelled to well over a hundred and fifty to two hundred people and the party was on. I spent some time chatting with an RCMP officer named Brian from Vancouver, A fifteen year officer who expressed his desire that things stay peaceful and talked about how much he was enjoying Toronto. We talked for about twenty minutes like two guys having a beer in a bar rather than a cop and protester. Unlike many protests the police at this protest seemed more laid back and friendly, When the protest moved off the sidewalk and into the road the police merely stopped traffic and let the protesters wander where they will. No attempt was made to control the protesters, try to tell them which way to go or hurry them along. Unfortunately I don’t believe this protest will set the tone for the rest of the week. Today’s protest was more like a dress rehearsal for gay pride day, something Toronto police are familiar with and have dealt with before.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TCGJrCNl1KI/AAAAAAAAAB8/1e7N2QXCH90/s1600/103_2059.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" ru="true" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TCGJrCNl1KI/AAAAAAAAAB8/1e7N2QXCH90/s320/103_2059.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TCGKAuVDJQI/AAAAAAAAACE/Spxlf8K38PM/s1600/103_2071.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; cssfloat: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" ru="true" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TCGKAuVDJQI/AAAAAAAAACE/Spxlf8K38PM/s320/103_2071.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Last night the police had a chance to deal with a real security issue and blew it big time, in a spot where the security fence meets the entertainment district someone in a car pulled up around 3:00A.M. and fired two shots in the air, although the police were on the scene at the time the gunman escaped scot free. I doubt this guy was an anarchist, more likely just more gang violence that has plagued the neighborhood of the entertainment district that the police have not been able to control for some time. You would think with all the extra police they might have caught these guys just this one time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As the week progresses the bigger protest marches will take place and we will see if the protesters and police can keep it somewhat civil or whether all hell will break loose.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bjt-3Twmv5w"&gt;Today’s Video 1&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Iu06eUEPi4s"&gt;Today’s Video 2&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q9Pp7BbsZCY"&gt;Today’s Video 3&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;Lawrence McCurry&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;June 22, 2010&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4395994043314315746-4239395886902346450?l=canadaawakes.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://canadaawakes.blogspot.com/feeds/4239395886902346450/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://canadaawakes.blogspot.com/2010/06/let-games-begin-special-g-20-report.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4395994043314315746/posts/default/4239395886902346450'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4395994043314315746/posts/default/4239395886902346450'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://canadaawakes.blogspot.com/2010/06/let-games-begin-special-g-20-report.html' title='Let The Games Begin -

It all started a couple of weeks ago with a &lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-5RiRuo5R38&amp;amp;feature=related"&gt;You-Tube video&lt;/a&gt; of an anarchist group calling itself the FFFC. I have spoken to many people I know involved in many different protest groups and all of them have told me the same thing, No one has ever heard of this group before. There is however a few reasons that make me believe this may be a staged event by &lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DCRsj06wT64"&gt;police provocateurs&lt;/a&gt;. For one thing this film was posted on You-tube with a very polished message in a very short time after the event, the film makers (appearing to be a west coast based group) commit the crime in Ottawa and promise to attend the G-20. Wow these guys really get around. Oddly enough the event takes place the same day the government announces the cost of the G-8,G-20 to the Canadian public. Days later when the opposition calls out the government in parliament for the amount of tax payer money spent on the event, &lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vr79kWEiBII&amp;amp;feature=PlayList&amp;amp;p=5867ADB805613DA8&amp;amp;playnext_from=PL&amp;amp;playnext=1&amp;amp;index=63"&gt;the government sites the bank attack only three miles from the house where they sit. (Note they cited the bank blast and 9/11)&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;Most of the stories reported on the nightly news range from fluff pieces to acts of vandalism that at any other time are not even considered news. I recall one story where a reporter was standing in front of a wall in an ally off Spadina Ave. where someone had taken a can of red spray paint and written “G-20 = New World Order” across the wall. The reporter droned on about how these groups not only engage in vandalism but can be very dangerous. The joke about this is that lane way off spadina Ave. has been covered in graffiti as long as I can remember! The message was written on top of other graffiti that has been there for years! Yes there has been spray painted vandalism on bank machines and bus shelters in Toronto and in one case a local teenager was arrested for it. I doubt he belonged to a dangerous anarchist group. In fact the media has been pushing the anarchist label to the point of making it dangerous to peaceful activists, last week at my local watering hole when I made a comment about my non support for our troops in Afghanistan I was called an anarchist and physically attacked by some drunken old man! I merely pushed him away and it was not a big deal (afterwards we bought each other a drink) Point is this same old man used to call me a tin hat wearing conspiracy theorist and now I was an anarchist, I doubt he even knew what an anarchist is.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;One story last week that got a lot of play on TV news was about a mysterious man with a foreign accent and three fingers on one hand who bought a large amount of fertilizer without being checked first by the RCMP. Composite drawings and descriptions were plastered all over while speculating he was building a bomb just like the one in Oklahoma City or at least running an illegal grow op. A couple of days later this man came forward, turned out he had a garden and bought enough for himself and a couple of friends.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;Other nightly stories have been about a hotdog vendor that has been on front street for years being forced to close for the whole month of June, theatres closing down for the safety of their patrons (guess they never heard the show must go on), garbage cans in the whole downtown area being removed, Not only behind the fences but all around so anarchists cannot throw them into windows of innocent local businesses. The mayor even called for local restaurants to remain open twenty-four hours to cater to the people attending the meetings. They would be the only ones as nobody else can get anywhere near the overpriced eateries on king street since the fence has gone up. There was one story about an internet travel agency offering a special to residents who live in the area that wish to get away for some sun and fun to avoid having to get a special I.D. pass just to go home, Oh and if they do remain they cannot have visitors to their home during this time, Only people that have gone through the process of being cleared for special passes. Imagine having to get an RCMP check just to go to your own home.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;Sometimes the tone of these reports are about how great it is that our city will be show cased to the world and how much money the G-20 will bring to town? I doubt the crooks attending will be spending enough to make up for the one billion dollar price tag. These upbeat reports even show mounted police officers practicing crowd control on police officers pretending to be protesters with signs, being chased around a field.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;I guess library footage of mounted police beating and trampling real protesters would not fit with the “how lucky we are” tone of the report. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;Today’s report was about an envoimental group holding a “G-20” protest today on front st. to protest global warming. The report goes on to tell us all how if this were one day later these protesters would not be on Front Street as the whole area goes into lock down mode tomorrow. Cut to a bubble headed woman covered in oil holding a protest sign, the rush hour commuters giving her a wide oily birth. She tells the camera how they should be talking about how to stop the oil leak and pushes the U.N. global warming hoax. Behind her people dance around in giant paper Mache heads of the G-8 leaders. Next story different reporter is about the United States government issuing a travel warning to Americans to stay away from Toronto due to the “danger” of the upcoming G-20.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;Seems to me the main stream media can’t decide if the protesters are a bunch of funny kooks or a dangerous bunch of stone throwing anarchists. In the end how the main stream media decides to portray the protesters matters not. They will never report the real reason why most of them will come &lt;span class="GramE"&gt;out,&lt;/span&gt; the police have already made up their minds to gas and beat them.

behind the protests will not be spoken of.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"&gt;The revolution will not be televised.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun:

Money?&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;&lt;span style='mso-spacerun:yes'&gt;     &lt;/span&gt;&lt;spanstyle='font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%'&gt;At this time I feel I must addressthe elephant in the room. How is money affecting the new revolution and what roledoes it play in waking people up to the fact that money is the tool being usedto enslave us?&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;&lt;span style='font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%'&gt;&lt;spanstyle='mso-spacerun:yes'&gt;   &lt;/span&gt;From &lt;a href="http://www.infowars.com/"&gt;AlexJones&lt;/a&gt; to &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style='font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;mso-bidi-font-family:Tahoma'&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.trendsresearch.com/index.htm"&gt;Gerald &lt;spanclass=SpellE&gt;Celente&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, From &lt;a href="http://restoretherepublic.com/"&gt;Gary&lt;span class=SpellE&gt;Franchi&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt; to yes even this humble author, we haveall accepted advertising revenue to offset the cost of getting the message outto you. (Although I have yet to receive any funds, I have allowed Google ad’son my blog site where I post my articles.)&lt;span style='mso-spacerun:yes'&gt; &lt;/span&gt;One cannot address the problems and terror of the coming “New WorldOrder” without starting with the fact that it is the control of the monetarysystem that gives them the power to even try to pull off what’s going on. It’seasy to see how money has hijacked our political systems all over the world andhow the fiat money system is being used to control the populations of the worldthough debt. This is what the new revolution or the great awakening is allabout.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;&lt;span style='font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;mso-bidi-font-family:Tahoma'&gt;&lt;span style='mso-spacerun:yes'&gt;     &lt;/span&gt;Why is it then a taboosubject for us to discuss where the money that our leaders generate comes fromor how much they are paying themselves out of these funds? Is it fair game tocriticize Alex Jones for the amount of advertising or the content ofadvertising he allows on his radio show? Is it a fair question to ask GeraldCelente how much money he made on the same stock market that he publicly callsa sham? Don’t get me wrong I highly respect both of these men for the braveposition they have taken. There is no doubt at all that it costs big bucks torun the kind of operation that Alex does. Because of the nature of the businessthey are in, it almost puts them in the same position as a popular preacher ora minister of God might find himself in.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;&lt;span style='font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;mso-bidi-font-family:Tahoma'&gt;&lt;span style='mso-spacerun:yes'&gt;   &lt;/span&gt;We all know what happened toJim Baker of the PTL club or Jimmy Swaggart, but we also have to recognize whattheir downfall did to the large christen political movement they were a bigpart of. Are some of the leaders of this new revolution that we look to fornews and information leaving themselves open to the type of scandal that coulddestroy this movement before it really gets off the ground? I believe this is alegitimate question that must be asked and addressed.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;&lt;span style='font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;mso-bidi-font-family:Tahoma'&gt;&lt;span style='mso-spacerun:yes'&gt;    &lt;/span&gt;Recently one of the leaderswho &lt;span class=GramE&gt;runs&lt;/span&gt; a website that is widely followed by manypeople I know had a staff member that posted an advertisement from one of hissponsors on his face book page. I left a comment that perhaps face book is notthe appropriate place to put an advertisement, Now to his credit he consideredit fundraising and thanked me for my comment when I explained that although Iexpected advertising on his website and in the content of the informationreports he publishes, but to place an ad on face book was not a good idea. Thefans of his website however were not as kind in lambasting me, going as far asaccusing me of trying to curtail his freedom of speech.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;&lt;span style='font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;mso-bidi-font-family:Tahoma'&gt;&lt;span style='mso-spacerun:yes'&gt;    &lt;/span&gt;If money can subvert ourpolitical system we have to expect the elite to try and use money to silencethe voices that inspire this revolution to take it back! This is a warning notonly to the &lt;/span&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style='font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;mso-bidi-font-family:Arial;color:black;font-weight:normal;mso-bidi-font-weight:bold'&gt;Benjamin Franklins that bring us news and information about therevolution, but the political leaders as well. The main stream news wasted notime criticizing U.S. congressman &lt;a href="http://www.ronpaul.org/"&gt;&lt;spanstyle='mso-bidi-font-weight:normal'&gt;Ron Paul&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt; when they pointed outhe had taken a donation from a racist group. To his credit he deflected thiscriticism by noting he only took donations from individuals and notcorporations and what individuals personally believe was none of his business.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;spanstyle='mso-bidi-font-family:Arial;color:black;font-weight:normal;mso-bidi-font-weight:bold'&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style='font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;mso-bidi-font-family:Arial;color:black;font-weight:normal;mso-bidi-font-weight:bold'&gt;&lt;span style='mso-spacerun:yes'&gt;   &lt;/span&gt;As an outsider looking in, (I’mCanadian) I can see this happening with the tea party movement in the U.S. Atone time the Tea party was a political movement for real change, but as soon asbig money from sources like CNN started coming to the party it became clearthat the elite had taken over and were subverting the movement. Hopefullyenough people in the tea party will wake up and fight to get the party back.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style='font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;mso-bidi-font-family:Arial;color:black;font-weight:normal;mso-bidi-font-weight:bold'&gt;&lt;span style='mso-spacerun:yes'&gt;   &lt;/span&gt;The point being this, for thosethat are to be the bearers of truth to the masses, those that bring the news ofthe revolution that the controlled media dare not speak of, &lt;span class=GramE&gt;You&lt;/span&gt;must be above reproach. You must be extra vigilant to not only be honest, butalso ethical and open about where your funding comes from and how you use it.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style='font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;mso-bidi-font-family:Arial;color:black;font-weight:normal;mso-bidi-font-weight:bold'&gt;&lt;span style='mso-spacerun:yes'&gt;    &lt;/span&gt;The two revolutionaries inhistory that are closest to my heart, &lt;ahref="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benjamin_Franklin"&gt;&lt;span style='mso-bidi-font-weight:normal'&gt;Benjamin Franklin&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt; of the United States and &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;ahref="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Lyon_Mackenzie"&gt;&lt;spanstyle='mso-bidi-font-weight:bold'&gt;William Lyon Mackenzie&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;spanstyle='mso-bidi-font-weight:bold'&gt; of Canada.( who’s wanted poster, put out bythe crown hangs above my desk as I write this) Both were writers and newspapermen, both men used words and the truth to bring about real political change. Inthe end they both ended up printing their own money as well. ( This worked outmuch better for Franklin then it did for Mackenzie ) Perhaps the key to thisnew kind of revolution will be a new form of currency made by us, to replacethe bogus notes issued by the bankers and United Nations tyrants who would bekings? Until that time, those that bring us the ammunition in this info war andthose who will lead the way to regaining our &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style='color:#474B4E'&gt;sovereignty&lt;/span&gt;&lt;spanstyle='mso-bidi-font-weight:bold'&gt; and freedom must be on guard,

come under fire for my lack ofsupport for our Canadian troops in Afghanistan and I feel I am now forced todefend my stance on why Canada has no moral right to be sending our youngpeople to fight, kill and be killed in Afghanistan. On Oct. 7, 2001 &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;spanlang=EN style='mso-ansi-language:EN'&gt;Canadian Prime Minister Jean Chretienannounced that Canada would be sending troops to Afghanistan in aid of the U.S.sponsored “war on terror” after the Sept. 11 2001 atrocity of the world tradecenter in NYC.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;&lt;span lang=EN style='mso-ansi-language:EN'&gt;&lt;spanstyle='mso-spacerun:yes'&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;At that time Canada was already heavily involvedin NATO and U.N. military actions that were taking place in Bosnia and Africa. The1,653 Canadian troops deployed in Bosnia as part of a NATO “stabilization force”was more in keeping with Canada’s traditional military role of being wellrespected peace keepers, as opposed to an American imperialist invasion forcewhich for the most part Canada had taken great pains to not be perceived as.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;&lt;span lang=EN style='mso-ansi-language:EN'&gt;&lt;spanstyle='mso-spacerun:yes'&gt;   &lt;/span&gt;The justification for the invasion ofAfghanistan came as a result of U.S. &lt;span style='mso-spacerun:yes'&gt; &lt;/span&gt;PresidentGeorge Bush demanding &lt;/span&gt;that the Taliban (at the time the government ofAfghanistan) hand over Osama &lt;span class=GramE&gt;bin&lt;/span&gt; Laden, the head of theal Qaeda terrorist organization. In fact Bin Laden and Al Qaeda were being &lt;ahref="http://www.abovetopsecret.com/forum/thread489150/pg1"&gt;blamed for theattack on the WTC by the American media moments after the attack began.&lt;/a&gt; Andbefore the towers even fell !&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;&lt;span style='mso-spacerun:yes'&gt;   &lt;/span&gt;I do not intend togo into great detail here why it has become very suspect that 9/11 was in fact notthe work of Osama Bin Laden or Al Qaeda. There is a very large and growing bodyof evidence that the true facts surrounding 9/11 have been covered up by theU.S. government and calls by the &lt;ahref="http://topdocumentaryfilms.com/in-their-own-words/"&gt;families of victimsof 9/11&lt;/a&gt; (both Canadian and U.S. families) have been ignored. There aregaping holes in the 9/11 report that was presented to U.S. congress and thereare many documentaries &lt;span style='mso-spacerun:yes'&gt; &lt;/span&gt;and web sitesthat lay out these arguments in much better detail than I can go into here. Avery good and balanced story that takes both sides of the 9/11 truth movementinto account was done by the CBC show &lt;ahref="http://www.cbc.ca/fifth/2009-2010/the_unofficial_story/"&gt;The Fifth Estateon Nov, 27 2009 and can be viewed on line&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;So what were and are our goals in Afghanistan that justifiesso many Canadian soldiers being sent home in a box? In 2001 Prime Minister Chretienand &lt;span lang=EN style='mso-ansi-language:EN'&gt;defense Minister Art Eggletonstated that the goal was find Osama bin Laden and other high-ranking Al-Qaedamembers to be put on trial, to destroy Al Qaeda’s ability to commit terroristacts and to remove the Taliban government from power as they had given safeharbor to terrorists and were committing atrocities on their own people.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;&lt;span lang=EN style='mso-ansi-language:EN'&gt;Let’s look atthis then, after almost nine years of war Osama has never been caught, eventhough there is clear evidence that he could have been and the U.S. government didnot act on it or even &lt;ahref="http://topdocumentaryfilms.com/where-world-osama-bin-laden/"&gt;stopped thisfrom happening&lt;/a&gt;. As for high ranking Al Qaeda members, most have been outright murdered with great collateral damage to civilians or imprisoned inAmerican jails on foreign soil where they have received no rights under the lawor even a legal trial. As for removing the Taliban government, they were oustedfrom power within the first 30 days of the war. When in power, the Taliban had successfullyput a stop to the growing of the opium poppy, while under the U.S. installed governmentof &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hamid_Karzai" title="Hamid Karzai"&gt;&lt;spanclass=SpellE&gt;Hamid&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=SpellE&gt;Karzai&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt; opium productionhas increased greatly over older levels with the &lt;ahref="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N_gOaPeSCME"&gt;admitted help of U.S. forces&lt;/a&gt;.(&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style='font-size:10.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif"'&gt;&lt;ahref="http://www.opioids.com/afghanistan/prosperity.html"&gt;Source: &lt;i&gt;New Yorktimes&lt;/i&gt; &lt;span class=GramE&gt;Date :&lt;/span&gt; 10 April 2004&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;spanlang=EN style='mso-ansi-language:EN'&gt;) As for atrocities committed by theTaliban under Muslim Shariah law they pale in comparison to the acts of war committedby our soldiers on innocent civilians in Afghanistan. In fact web site Youtubeis full of video clips from Afghanistan and Iraq such as Canadian soldiersblowing holes in the walls of a house full of women and children to gain accessto the house next door, &lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LaOYl3B4Jno"&gt;Britishsoldiers beating a group of children&lt;/a&gt; for throwing a rock and even an &lt;ahref="http://filecabi.net/video/US-Soldier-throws-puppy-off-cliff.html"&gt;AmericanGI throwing a puppy off a cliff&lt;/a&gt; to its death. The whistleblower web site &lt;ahref="http://wikileaks.org/"&gt;wiki leaks&lt;/a&gt; was charged for releasing a &lt;/span&gt;&lt;spanstyle='mso-bidi-font-family:Helvetica;color:black'&gt;&lt;ahref="http://www.collateralmurder.com/"&gt;classified US military video&lt;/a&gt;depicting the indiscriminate slaying of over a dozen people in the Iraqi suburbof New Baghdad -- including two Reuters news staff. Reuters has been trying toobtain the video through the Freedom of Information Act, without success sincethe time of the attack. The video, shot from an Apache helicopter gun-site,clearly shows the unprovoked slaying of a wounded Reuters employee and hisrescuers. Two young children involved in the rescue were also seriouslywounded.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style='mso-ansi-language:EN'&gt; &lt;span class=GramE&gt;&lt;spanlang=EN&gt;On purpose.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span lang=EN&gt; &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;&lt;span lang=EN style='mso-ansi-language:EN'&gt;&lt;spanstyle='mso-spacerun:yes'&gt;   &lt;/span&gt;That’s just a small sample of video from the&lt;span class=GramE&gt;net,&lt;/span&gt; we can only assume there is much more going onthat goes unreported and not on video. Now I’m not saying that all of ourCanadian soldiers are monsters or committing heinous acts, I’m sure most of ourarmed forces conduct themselves with honor in a respectful manner. But why arethey even put in a position where they have to police people for a foreign government?&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;&lt;span lang=EN style='mso-ansi-language:EN'&gt;&lt;spanstyle='mso-spacerun:yes'&gt;   &lt;/span&gt;Recently in parliament the &lt;/span&gt;&lt;spanstyle='color:#474B4E'&gt;official opposition party asked the Harper government forinformation about Canadian forces handing over prisoners to the Afghan governmentwhile knowing full well those prisoners would be tortured and killed. The governmentrefused the request and side stepped the law by proroguing the house. If the governmentis hiding this from the Canadian people what else are our troops doing that thegovernment do not want us to know about?&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;&lt;span style='color:#474B4E'&gt;&lt;span style='mso-spacerun:yes'&gt; &lt;/span&gt;This war and the conduct of our troops cannot be compared to pastconflicts such as WWII. What this war really means to Canadians is yet anotherexample of the fact that Steven Harper and our government is taking its ordersfrom not from the Canadian people but from a corporate controlled world governmentunder the evil direction of un-named, un-elected global bankers operating underthe U.N. flag. (Where do you think those blue helmets come from?) What’s thenext move for Canadian troops?&lt;span style='mso-spacerun:yes'&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;How wouldyou feel about them going to Europe to quell the kind of riots like the onesgoing on now in Greece? How many of these Canadian soldiers have come back fromAfghanistan to pepper spray your kids at this year’s G-20 conference in June?&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;&lt;span style='color:#474B4E'&gt;Wake up people we did not go toAfghanistan to help those people, we went there to kill them on the orders ofpeople you did not vote for or would want to know.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;&lt;span style='color:#474B4E'&gt;Think about it this way, we areover there shooting at people who 15 years ago we were giving weapons to, sothey could kill people the Russians conscripted to die there. Now the Chineseare giving them guns to kill us. Does any of this make sense to you?&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;&lt;span style='color:#474B4E'&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal align=center style='text-align:center'&gt;&lt;b

matter how repugnant you may find politicsto &lt;span class=GramE&gt;be.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style='mso-spacerun:yes'&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;Now isthe time to get down and dirty.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;There is no doubt that the recent implementation of the HST inOntario and B.C. is nothing more than a massive tax grab that will cause bigtime inflation in the Canadian economy. When the government sites monetarypolicy on a constant basis as a move to keep down inflation why would they thenimplement a tax that is sure to cause inflation?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;&lt;span style='mso-spacerun:yes'&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;It has been clearfor some time now that bankers and large corporations have hijacked the mainstream political parties in Canada and no longer even try to make a secret ofit! Any grass roots political movement that may start up in Canada is quicklyinfiltrated and co-opted by these greedy bankers and corporations. A goodexample of this is the demise of the Reform Party here in Canada. If you recallduring the &lt;ahref="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canadian_federal_election,_1993"&gt;1993elections&lt;/a&gt; Brian Mulroney had just turned the reins of the ProgressiveConservative Party over to Kim Campbell, Mulroney had been such an open andunrepentant criminal&lt;span style='mso-spacerun:yes'&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;that there was noway in the world they would ever receive the popular vote. (In fact they wononly two seats) Western based Reform Party’s Preston Manning had started tomake some very good headway in the east and although could not have won thiselection they could very well have picked up enough seats to win &lt;ahref="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Official_Opposition_(Canada)"title="Official Opposition (Canada)"&gt;Official Opposition&lt;/a&gt; status, whichwould mean an important source of funding for the member funded reform partyand a much greater influence in parliament. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;&lt;span style='mso-spacerun:yes'&gt;     &lt;/span&gt;Reform was makinggood headway in Ontario and it looked like they would form the next newofficial opposition party when the Toronto&lt;span style='mso-spacerun:yes'&gt; &lt;/span&gt;news papers came out with the headlines that the Reform Party in Ontariowas full of Nazi’s and racists. The truth of the matter, which did not come outuntil after the election was that &lt;ahref="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grant_Bristow"&gt;CSIS mole Grant Bristow&lt;/a&gt;had signed up these people to the reform party while spying on them for theCanadian secret service. The end result of all this was that Reform lost out onOfficial opposition status by one seat to the &lt;ahref="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bloc_Qu%C3%A9b%C3%A9cois"title="Bloc Québécois"&gt;Bloc Québécois&lt;/a&gt; . This gave the Conservative partytime to infiltrate the Reform ( as well as other small parties ) and take overso that the popular grass roots movement was dead and gone.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;&lt;span style='mso-spacerun:yes'&gt;   &lt;/span&gt;The whole “GrantBristow affair” was quietly swept under the carpet after a short royalcommission where CSIS out and out lied about Grant Bristow and were caught inthose lies by the Toronto Star. I personally knew Grant Bristow in the 70s and80s when he worked for a strip joint and dealt drugs for a living and canassure you he worked for CSIS and was guilty of manipulating the outcome of thefederal election of 1993. I intend to write more on this matter at a laterdate.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;The point is this, If you and I do not get involved in thepolitical system in Canada now, it will be too late to do so after thegovernment gives away our sovereignty to NAFTA and the U.N&lt;spanstyle='mso-spacerun:yes'&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;b style='mso-bidi-font-weight:normal'&gt;ONEWORLD GOVERNMENT! &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;&lt;span style='mso-ascii-font-family:Cambria;mso-hansi-font-family:Cambria'&gt;The world financial&lt;span style='color:black'&gt; crisis (depression) isnot an accident, it’s a consolidation of world economies by the bankers and theIMF (&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;International Monetary Fund) it was deliberately done.Steven Harper and the rest of our politicians are complacent in the economicproblems that our country and the whole world &lt;span class=GramE&gt;is&lt;/span&gt; goingthough today! If you have lost your job or your house it’s because Harper andthe bankers wanted you to. And don’t fool yourself &lt;ahref="http://www.torontosun.com/news/columnists/michele_mandel/2008/12/11/7703771-sun.html"&gt;Michael&lt;span class=SpellE&gt;Ignatieff&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt; and the Liberal party are in on it too,the NDP is funded by trade unions that are also controlled.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal align=center style='text-align:center'&gt;&lt;b style='mso-bidi-font-weight:normal'&gt;&lt;span style='font-size:16.0pt;mso-bidi-font-size:11.0pt;line-height:115%'&gt;SO WHAT DO WE DO ABOUT IT ?&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;&lt;span style='mso-ascii-font-family:Cambria;mso-hansi-font-family:Cambria'&gt;For starters we need to take back this hijacked political system anduse it against them. You need to get out and vote again, even if you have notdone so in years, You must vote now and encourage your friends and family to doso as well. You must also get involved with a political party that will fightagainst this corporate banker takeover of your rights and freedoms. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;&lt;span style='mso-ascii-font-family:Cambria;mso-hansi-font-family:Cambria'&gt;&lt;span style='mso-spacerun:yes'&gt;   &lt;/span&gt;I have joined &lt;/span&gt;&lt;ahref="http://canadianactionparty.ca/"&gt;&lt;span style='mso-ascii-font-family:Cambria;mso-hansi-font-family:Cambria'&gt;The Canadian Action Party&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;spanstyle='mso-ascii-font-family:Cambria;mso-hansi-font-family:Cambria'&gt; and willbe actively supporting this small independent party as long as their currentpolicies of returning control of government borrowing to the bank of Canada andaway from the private charted banks remain in place. We must give the mainstream political parties in Canada their walking papers and put an end to theprofessional politicians whose only interest in life is to get elected so theycan steal from and oppress you and your family. Getting elected to governmentis meant to be a service to your fellow Canadian, not a means to gaining wealthor to be a family business. Almost every Prime Minister we have had since &lt;/span&gt;&lt;ahref="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lester_B._Pearson" title="Lester B. Pearson"&gt;LesterB. Pearson&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style='mso-ascii-font-family:Cambria;mso-hansi-font-family:Cambria'&gt; has been in the employ of &lt;/span&gt;Paul Desmarais and &lt;ahref="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_Corporation_of_Canada"&gt;power Corp.&lt;/a&gt;Both P.C and Liberal.&lt;span style='mso-ascii-font-family:Cambria;mso-hansi-font-family:Cambria'&gt; &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;&lt;span style='mso-ascii-font-family:Cambria;mso-hansi-font-family:Cambria'&gt;If you personally do not do something to change the way politics areconducted in Canada you will surely suffer the consequences. &lt;span class=GramE&gt;Andsooner rather than later.&lt;/span&gt; So I ask you, &lt;span class=GramE&gt;What&lt;/span&gt;are you going to do about it? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;&lt;span

&lt;spanclass=GramE&gt;off !&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style='mso-spacerun:yes'&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;&lt;span style='mso-spacerun:yes'&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;There is something wrong in this country, in this world. Youhave always known it, you have always felt that there are things the governmentdoes, polices they carry out, that make no sense at all. Policies that thepeople who elected them do not want. Why does the Canadian government borrowmoney off the charted banks like the Royal, CIBC, TD and the BMO at highinterest when the Bank of Canada should be printing the money and lending it tothe government interest free? If this were the case the deficit would be paidoff in short order and your taxes would go to your medical system, buildingroads and such, Instead of paying the interest rates to big banks that get richoff your labour? Most of your taxes go to paying the interest on the deficitnot the principal of the loan or services that benefit you. If the governmentwere to issue money by the bank of Canada, take the control of money back awayfrom the major charted banks in Canada, if this were the case the taxes you paywould go down in short order.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;&lt;span style='mso-spacerun:yes'&gt;     &lt;/span&gt;Why does Canadahave troops in Afghanistan? &lt;span style='mso-spacerun:yes'&gt; &lt;/span&gt;Do youreally believe that by having Canadian soldiers there they are somehowprotecting you? Do you believe that those troops, raiding the houses of peoplelike you and I, somehow stops some deranged terrorist from blowing up thesubway? If anything I would think that it makes a scenario like that morelikely. We used to pride ourselves on being peace keepers, now we are nothingmore than the lap dogs of the American war machine. I ask you why? Make nomistake, Canadians are being killed. By your own government who send them to Afghanistanto fight an unjust police action that nobody wants.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;Whether you vote for the conservatives or liberals in thiscountry you seem to get the same bad government and policies, politicians whenrunning for office promise all kinds of things and yet we continue to see thesame bad government no matter which party gets elected. The reason for this aswe all know is because of corporate collusion between government and thecorporations and banks. Our government is pushing us towards an economic unionwith the United States and Mexico and yet any Canadian can tell you that thistype of union and business agreements with these countries will only bring downour standard of living and bring about a destruction of the social programsthat make us who we are as Canadians!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;At this point you must ask yourself, &lt;b style='mso-bidi-font-weight:normal'&gt;Are we living in a democracy or a corporate dictatorship? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;Even in China you get a choice to vote between comrade A orcomrade B, but are those people free? Are we? Oh sure you have free speech,(fornow) but if what you say and want is being ignored by those who lead you, freespeech has no value at all. A child in the supermarket has free speech but doesits parents fill the cart with candy? That’s how the politicians of Canadathink of you, you are children and they know what’s best for you, and like achild you let them do it to you.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;&lt;span style='mso-spacerun:yes'&gt;     &lt;/span&gt;There is noquestion at this point we are being led into a new world order, In fact it’salready here, They have yet to cross the T’s and dot the I’s&lt;spanstyle='mso-spacerun:yes'&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;but we are on the final steps. Will this NewOrder mean the loss of our way of doing things and our standard of living herein Canada? YES IT WILL. The UN and World Bank are not democracies!&lt;spanstyle='mso-spacerun:yes'&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;In fact, One of the leaders of this shadowygroup of bankers and despots is a man Canadians voted out of government longago &lt;a href="http://www.afn.org/~govern/strong.html"&gt;Maurice Strong&lt;/a&gt;. Besidesbeing a powerful man in the United Nations Strong is connected to a largeCanadian company called &lt;ahref="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_Corporation_of_Canada"&gt;Power corp&lt;/a&gt;.Power Corp is a major Canadian company with assets in North America and Europein a number of industries. These industries include media, pulp and paper, andfinancial services. The master of power corp. is &lt;ahref="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Desmarais" title="Paul Desmarais"&gt;PaulDesmarais&lt;/a&gt;, and a short list of Canadians who have worked for power corp.are Former Prime Ministers of Canada,&lt;span style='mso-spacerun:yes'&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;PierreTrudeau, Jean Chrétien, (Chrétien's daughter France is married to the son ofPaul Desmarais, Sr., André.) Paul Martin, Brian Mulroney as well as many, manyother cabinet ministers and provincial premiers.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal align=center style='text-align:center'&gt;&lt;b style='mso-bidi-font-weight:normal'&gt;&lt;i style='mso-bidi-font-style:normal'&gt;&lt;span style='font-size:12.0pt;mso-bidi-font-size:11.0pt;line-height:115%'&gt;DOES YOUR VOTE MEAN ANYTHING ORONLY THAT OF POWER CORP.?&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;&lt;span style='font-size:12.0pt;mso-bidi-font-size:11.0pt;line-height:115%'&gt;Is world government under the UN and World Bank such a badthing? After all we all collected coins for UNICEF at Halloween to feedstarving children in third world countries? Would that not mean the end of war?This is what they would like us to believe but the truth of the matter is thosekids are still starving and the UN has gotten us into shooting wars like &lt;/span&gt;Afghanistan,Africa and Eastern Europe. In fact the World Bank and UN have made mattersworse in countries they have made deals with and micro manage, You could evencall it resource theft on a scale never before seen in all of the greatcolonial conquests of the past.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;&lt;span style='mso-spacerun:yes'&gt;   &lt;/span&gt;The sad truth ofthe matter is if Canadians (And the world) don’t wake up and soon to the factthat a takeover has happened and democracy has become a bought and paid forsham, You and your children will be no more than slaves to the few that havestolen your birthright, your human rights and freedom!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;This is not some crackpot conspiracy theory, it is fact.Please look into it for yourself. At this point most people’s eyes glaze overand they say “Yea but what am I supposed to do about it?” Well there are anumber of constructive things the average Canadian can do about it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal align=center style='text-align:center'&gt;&lt;b style='mso-bidi-font-weight:normal'&gt;&lt;span style='font-size:14.0pt;mso-bidi-font-size:11.0pt;line-height:115%'&gt;Educate yourself and others&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;Remember those bankers and corporate leaders own most of thenews papers, television and radio stations. Under the Mulroney government thelaw on media ownership was changed so now most of the media in Canada iscontrolled by very few people like his old boss at power corp. So the chancesthat you will get information about what is being done to you from main streammedia is slim to none. Talk to your friends, neighbors and anyone who willlisten about what you find out. Send them articles and internet links aboutwhat is happening in Canada and the world. The most important thing you can dois spread the message that will wake the sleeping masses before it’s too late.You can make it happen and only you can do this.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal align=center style='text-align:center'&gt;&lt;b style='mso-bidi-font-weight:normal'&gt;&lt;span style='font-size:14.0pt;mso-bidi-font-size:11.0pt;line-height:115%'&gt;Stop Playing their Games&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;Do not join the military, If you are a police officer, donot accept duty protecting their secret meetings (G-20, Bilderburg group, andthe like) also refuse duty to stand guard at protests. These are your brothers,sisters, parents and children that you are going to pepper spray and tear gas.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;Protest, but do so peacefully, behind those masks, helmetsand billy clubs are police that are in the same boat as you, they are beingused to oppress you by evil people who have come to think of themselves as ourMasters, Most of those police people took that job because deep down they wantto help people. Many of them are as the Roman soldiers that nailed Jesus “theyknow not what they do”&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;Do business with small “Mom &amp;amp; Pop” companies wheneverpossible, remember an outfit like Wal-Mart pays an oppressed person in china 14cents to produce a toy they sell in Canada for $15 dollars and they do not paytheir fair share of taxes back to Canada. This kind of action is a hardship toyou, but would you want to be that under paid person in China? Their plan is tosee to it that in the future you or your children will be.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;&lt;span style='mso-spacerun:yes'&gt; &lt;/span&gt;If you belong to amain stream political party (Liberal, PC or NDP) consider where the money comesfrom and what you are supporting. Please resign or consider joining &lt;ahref="http://canadianactionparty.ca/"&gt;The Canadian Action Party&lt;/a&gt; instead. Atthis time the CAP seems to be awake but be vigilant, remember what happened tothe Reform party!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;&lt;span style='mso-spacerun:yes'&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;You may be one ofthose people that say &lt;span class=GramE&gt;“ I&lt;/span&gt; don’t get involved inPolitics” or “It’s not my problem, I just keep my head down” Well I say to you,if you don’t take an active interest in these matters now it will be too latelater and you and your children will wake up one day soon to find you are aslave in bondage. No one can help you if you don’t help yourself now. Confrontyour local politicians, friends, neighbors; ask them what they are doing tostop this takeover! Confront oppression wherever you see it, most of the timewhen you see a security guard they are there to intimidate you not protect you.This is a method to morally degrade society not protect you from crime as theysay it is. I used to just see uniformed security guards in banks and shopping malls,now I see them in the bars and pubs where I go to relax. How do these unarmedsecurity guards prevent crime? Don’t fool yourself the next step is to givethem guns. Why is the government arming our police forces with &lt;ahref="http://thechronicleherald.ca/Canada/9015950.html"&gt;machine guns&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;ahref="http://www.cbc.ca/canada/british-columbia/story/2010/03/24/bc-rcmp-rtactical-armoured-cougars.html"&gt;tanks&lt;/a&gt;?We are talking about police not military here; these weapons are meant to beused on you and other Canadian citizens.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;I can go on and on with examples of how this takeover of ourCanadian sovereignty has and is happening right now. Please my friends wake upand act before it’s too late.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;&lt;spanstyle='mso-spacerun:yes'&gt;                                                                                                                  &lt;/span&gt;Lawrence McCurry – April 8, 2010&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;The following are links to films and websites that will helpinform you.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;The Canadian Action Party&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;&lt;a href="http://canadianactionparty.ca/"&gt;http://canadianactionparty.ca/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;Oh Canada, Our bought and sold out land&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.ohcanadamovie.com/"&gt;http://www.ohcanadamovie.com/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;&lt;span style='mso-spacerun:yes'&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=GramE&gt;TheU.N. deception.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;&lt;ahref="http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=2634703139474212867#"&gt;http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=2634703139474212867#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span lang=EN style='mso-bidi-font-family:Arial;color:black;mso-themecolor:text1;mso-ansi-language:EN'&gt;Water&lt;span class=GramE&gt;&amp;nbsp;Exports&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp; and&amp;nbsp; the&amp;nbsp; Water&amp;nbsp; War&amp;nbsp; Crimes&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;&lt;span style='color:black;mso-themecolor:text1'&gt;&lt;ahref="http://www.waterwarcrimes.com/index.html"&gt;http://www.waterwarcrimes.com/index.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;&lt;span style='color:black;mso-themecolor:text1'&gt;New worldOrder archive&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;&lt;span style='color:black;mso-themecolor:text1'&gt;&lt;ahref="http://www.conspiracyarchive.com/NWO/"&gt;http://www.conspiracyarchive.com/NWO/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;&lt;span style='color:black;mso-themecolor:text1'&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;&lt;cite&gt;&lt;span style='font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%'&gt;&lt;spanstyle='mso-spacerun:yes'&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/cite&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/body&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4395994043314315746-8112318128199341430?l=canadaawakes.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://canadaawakes.blogspot.com/feeds/8112318128199341430/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://canadaawakes.blogspot.com/2010/04/canada-alarm-clock-is-going-off.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4395994043314315746/posts/default/8112318128199341430'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4395994043314315746/posts/default/8112318128199341430'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://canadaawakes.blogspot.com/2010/04/canada-alarm-clock-is-going-off.html' title='Canada The Alarm Clock is going off !'/><author><name>Alarm Bells</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09069611063628571328</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_rbbvijf7H_I/TEB3ayWpkNI/AAAAAAAAAFs/RXWfHm9acm4/S220/103_1954.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
