And; it's a case that could break new ground in the titanic battle to remove Atlantic Salmon fish farms from the waters of the coast of B.C. Right now, Don Staniford is being sued by Mainstream Canada, a subsidiary of Cermaq, a fish farm trans-national whose single majority stock-holder is the Norwegian government. Mainstream lawyers assert Staniford "disseminated and published defamatory and false statements about the company"on the Global Alliance Against Industrial Aqauaculture, or GAAIA site. GAAIA's web server dropped the site under pressure, but it has now been replaced by the less noxious(?) Salmonfarmingkills.com.
Don Staniford and B.C.'s "Salmon versus Goliath" in the second half.

Silver Donald Cameron in the first half.
And; almost everyone can talk a good green game, but what happens when it comes to following up the palaver?
OUR Ecovillage is where the bicycle rubber meets the bike trail. A 25 acre sustainable living demonstration site and education centre, located in Shawnigan Lake, just up the road from Victoria, OUR Ecovillage has been living the green dream, while training countless others in the ways of living they can employ to lessen their load on the environment. From food security and alternative building models, to teaching people how to live and work cooperatively, the project emphasizes it is; "by community, for community, through community." It all sounds ideal; but, there's a problem in paradise.
Brandy Gallagher is co-founder and developer of OUR Ecovillage, and is a member of TOPIA, The Sustainable Learning Community Institute. Brandy Gallagher and saving a village to save US in the second half.

This week: It's a story that may well have been lost. History instructor and award-winning author, Larry Hannant discovered the nearly forgotten manuscript for 'Champagne and Meatballs: Adventures of a Canadian Communist,' a compendium of journalist Bert Whyte's articles, letters, and remembrances over the most politically turbulent decades of the 20th Century, bringing to light a unique angle on a period of this country's history that resonates with an eerily familiar ring today.
Larry Hannant in the first half.
And; Gilad Atzmon's new book, 'The Wandering Who? A Study of Jewish Identity Politics' has received raves and rages.
Its publisher says 'The Wandering Who?' raises; "[S]ome of the most difficult and contentious issues of today..." examining; "[T]ribal aspects embedded in Jewish secular discourse, both Zionist and anti Zionist; the 'holocaust religion'; the meaning of 'history' and 'time' within the Jewish political discourse; the anti-Gentile ideologies entangled within different forms of secular Jewish political discourse and even with the Jewish left."
It's a book, international jurist and UN Special Rapporteur for Occupied Palestinian Territories, Professor Richard Falk calls; "A transformative story told with unflinching integrity that all (especially Jews) who care about real peace, as well as their own identity, should not only read, but reflect upon and discuss widely."

Gilad Atzmon's New Book: The Wandering Who? A Study Of Jewish Identity Politics
Jewish identity is tied up with some of the most difficult and contentious issues of today. The purpose in this book is to open many of these issues up for discussion. Since Israel defines itself openly as the ‘Jewish State’, we should ask what the notions of ’Judaism’, ‘Jewishness’, ‘Jewish culture’ and ‘Jewish ideology’ stand for. Gilad examines the tribal aspects embedded in Jewish secular discourse, both Zionist and anti Zionist; the ‘holocaust religion’; the meaning of ‘history’ and ‘time’ within the Jewish political discourse; the anti-Gentile ideologies entangled within different forms of secular Jewish political discourse and even within the Jewish left. He questions what it is that leads Diaspora Jews to identify themselves with Israel and affiliate with its politics. The devastating state of our world affairs raises an immediate demand for a conceptual shift in our intellectual and philosophical attitude towards politics, identity politics and history.
You can now order the book on Amazon.com or Amazon.co.uk
This week: I spoke last month with Briony Penn about her article appearing in Victoria's Focus Magazine exposing Ministry of Fisheries and Oceans', (those same that brought you Canada's East coast cod collapse not so many years ago) mismanagement of West coast herring quotas.
Briony Penn and putting a net around the Honourable James Ashfield, the minister supposedly responsible, before it's too late in the first half.
And; Canada too is introducing legislation allowing the Canadian government, (and its unnamed friends) creep into your computer to find out just about everything it thinks it needs to know about you.
Naturally, it's all for the safety of the little children. Called 'Lawful Access,' the bills soon to be before the House will, in the words of Open Media, "make online spying the norm in Canada and seriously threaten the privacy and security of all Canadians."
Steve Anderson is founder and Executive Director of OpenMedia.ca, an open internet advocacy collective behind the Stop Online Spying campaign.
Steve Anderson on the growing resistance to codified government surveillance in the second half.
And; Victoria Street Newz publisher and CFUV broadcaster, Janine Bandcroft will join us at the bottom of the hour to bring us up to speed with what's going on on Victoria's streets and beyond. But first, reprising Briony Penn on the state of B.C.'s coastal herring.
