The US Congress is about to pass internet censorship, even though the vast majority of Americans are opposed. We need to kill the bill – PIPA in the Senate and SOPA in the House – to protect our rights to free speech, privacy, and prosperity.

Why Canadians Should Participate in the SOPA/PIPA Protest

The Canadian Federal documents show the biggest reductions will come in compensation and finance for ex-soldiers and the loss of up to 500 jobs. This will result in a lack of compensation and benefits to our veterans. Their reasoning behind these cuts is that there is a reduction in the number of “traditional” veterans. However, the number of “new” veterans is on the rise. Men and women who have committed themselves to serving their country who are in need of physical and mental support, will find the cutbacks have diminished their chance of getting the help they deserve. The Royal Canadian Legion opposes these cuts, saying vets should be exempt from the Government’s budget review process.

I like to take the time on this day to thank the peaceful protesters of the Battle of Seattle that started November 20 1999, the unions involved, and labours around the world. You made changes in the world but he actions of the police force was uncalled for.

The story of popular resistance to the World Trade Organization/WTO in Seattle in 1999 is a story of how people power can change the world. It is a dangerous example for the global elite, and a powerful one for movements.

For years, the corporate media, global elites, and police have been twisting and marginalizing the truth, in order to invent their own story of Seattle 1999 and the stories of social movements’ resistance and victories. These lies and revisions of history have been used in an attempt to criminalize and repress our protests, movements, and mobilizations.

It’s time that we in the social movements tell our own stories, reclaim our own histories, and publicly fight damaging myths of our movements past and present. We must intervene in the public understanding of what happened, what is happening, and what it all means. Stories are how we understand the world and thus shape the future—they are part of our fight against corporate power, empire, war, and social and environmental injustice and for the alternatives that will make a better world.

LET THOSE WHO MAKE HISTORY TELL IT WATCH THE VIDEO!

Thank you for hosting this protest and to the people of Seattle!

Before I actually took time and and watched Sun TV I felt sorry for this new station trying to get on the air because Bell TV took them off their channel line-up. I even emailed Bell Canada telling them I should have the choice for this new network.

After I actually spent time watching this so-called news network, I came to realize what I was actually watching, one sided opinions that seem like the CBC is their worst enemy. The keep bulling the CBC every time I tune in to this channel as they seem threaten.

Ezra Levant and Brian Lilley keep asking for their tax money back that supports the CBC, well I want my percentage of my cable bill back that gets allocated to SunTV to get distributed to my home. I think it’s unfair for me to pay for a channel that I also did not want, or will not continue to watch as an informative information.

“One Voice”? – One Sided on the Government, One sided on Occupy Wall Street and protests, One Sided on religious views, just plain old One Sided

No sympathy here Sun News Media Network, I don’t want a Fox News Network here in My Canada.

Since been playing with xbox media center for sometime, I’ve decided to rip my dvd’s and other media I have.  Placing it on the central server so i can watch it anywhere. 

I’ve really only written this blog entry to test post on wordpress via my phone via dictation.

I barbeeque everything
