2010-07-06
This week: Ken O'Keefe is an ecology and human rights defender, environmental entrepreneur, and dedicated direct activist. Ken is a former member of the United States Marine Corps, who renounced his American citizenship in protest of his country's policies. He was also aboard the Mavi Marmara when it was attacked in the pre-dawn hours of May 31st, 2010. Ken was arrested, along with the roughly seven hundred human rights activists on the Mavi Marmara, charged, incarcerated, and brutalized while in Israeli custody. Ken O'Keefe in the first half. British Columbia and Ontario awoke Canada Day with the government's hand sunk deeper into their pockets. Yes, the Harmonized Sales Tax, or HST, went into effect July 1st. It's a tax hike for the majority of us, even as government services decline, or are cut entirely. Erik Andersen is retired economist who has remained active in his retirement watching the squander of our money perpetrated by the government of Canada's shadowy tax Czars. And; Victoria Street Newz publisher and CFUV Radio broadcaster, Janine Bandcroft will be here at the bottom of the hour to bring us newz from Victoria's street and beyond. All this and more today; but first Ken O'Keefe and maintaining pressure on Israel's illegal siege of Gaza. Chris Cook hosts Gorilla Radio, airing live every Monday, 5-6pm Pacific Time. In Victoria at 101.9FM, 104.3 cable, and on the internet at: http://cfuv.uvic.ca. He also serves as a contributing editor to the web news site, www.pacificfreepress.com.
