Occupy Canada
Nov. 9th, 2011 06:57 amOccupy Toronto is going to get attacked. They've been able to go this long because the police are justifiably concerned about fallout after the G20 debacle if they get brutal on the occupiers.
The Honourable Wife-Beater, as we have seen, does not really care about bad publicity. And if he says "jump," Bill Blair will ask, "on the heads of how many dirty hippies?"
The propaganda efforts have already started. With 58% of Canadians surveyed in favour of Occupy, confrontations in other cities have been depicted as involving a certain degree of violence on the part of the protesters, with an emphasis on weaponized bodily fluids.*
St. James Park now seems like a very good location, as the church has said that the protesters can flee to its grounds if need be. But get ready to see things get, if not Oakland-level ugly, then really bad.
* This is not just propaganda; I entirely believe the Ottawa RCP shit-blanket story, despite having zero love for the Cult of Avakian.
