Rome is burning, folks
but it's probably too late to yell "fire"Some people have noticed I've been goofing off these past several days. I haven't felt inspired to write. I feel lately that all I can do is repeat myself.
Canadians are asleep, or drugged or something. We are living in Orwell's 1984 fighting unending wars with trumped-up enemies, bombarded by words that don't mean what they used to, the media are nothing but propaganda tools, everybody running for office is a sleaze or a crook, political parties are interchangeable, enjoying one big party at the tax payer's expense. Blah, blah, blah.
I whined about the SPP long before people went into the streets about it. I harangued city councillors when they were in the processing of approving "Support the Troops" decals on city vehicles, and now that it's a done deal, people are beginning to protest.
I've said over and over that American troops, DEA officers (remember Mark Emery who was kidnapped on a Halifax street?) and US state troopers are operating on our soil, that it's only a matter of time before the military will be used against the people they are pledged to protect, just the same as the police are.
Lt. Paul Finnemore, in his
emailed attempts to interview yours truly, literally gave away the fact that the government has been intending to use the military to quell protests (emphasis mine):
"What I would like to talk about are things such as what your group would expect of appreciate in terms of communication with the military at any time or during scheduled demonstrations."http://www.yayacanada.com/028-24.html
