Gorilla Radio with Chris Cook, Briony Penn, Steve Anderson, Janine Bandcroft Jan. 9, 2012
2012-01-10
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. Chris Cook hosts Gorilla Radio, airing live every Monday, 5-6pm Pacific Time.
