Ape Goes to the Nov. 24, 2012 Victoria Gaza Demo and Vigil

Date 2012-11-24

Went down to Victoria's Gaza Demo and Vigil. This event was not organized by any single group or individual, but merely something thrown together by locals outraged by the massacre again of Gazans by the unrepentant and criminal Israel. At last count, more than 160 Gazan men, women, and children perished through the blitzkrieg, and more than 1100 were wounded. Psychological trauma is impossible to measure. Five Israeli's are reported to too have been killed, and some dozens more wounded by rocket fire from Gaza. American activist musician and songwriter, David Rovics also appeared.

Ape Goes to the October 22 Defend Our Coast Rally

Date 2012-10-22

Went down to the demo. to chill with several thousand fellow citizens concerned about oil tanker traffic off the coast of BC. Defend Our Coast, prominent organizers, message follows: The CBC is reporting 3,000 people are here today on this cold, just starting to get rainy October Monday. Our team thinks it’s closer to 5,000. But remember: this is not just a protest rally. Hundreds of people have been trained (mainly over the past weekend) and intend to put their bodies on the line to get arrested. If we wanted sheer numbers, we would have held this on a weekend. The design of this action was for people who care passionately about protecting our coast to take direct action to show how strongly citizens across BC feel about this issue. And as you can see from some of the earlier quotes from our First Nations allies, this direct resistance is just starting. And won’t stop until we win.

The following speakers are available for interviews Thursday and Friday: Gabriel Nadeau-Dubois, former spokesperson for CLASSE Cloé Zawadzki-Turcotte, a former member of CLASSE's executive and a key organizer behind the strike Ethan Cox, Quebec-based journalist and a former student organizer "The longest student strike in Canadian history ended with the resignation of two education ministers, the defeat of a sitting Premier and his government, and the repeal of both the tuition hikes and Law 12, which many have argued violated basic civil liberties," said Ethan Cox. "This tour is about telling the story of what happened in Quebec this year, and inspiring people across the country to stand up to austerity." BC is the final stop on a week of public forums known as the 'Maple Tour,' a reference to Quebec's 'Maple Spring' protest movement.

Ape Goes to Victoria's People's Assembly Oct. 15, 2011

Date 2011-10-16

I went down to the demonstration of Victoria's People's Assembly, an expression of both solidarity with the 'Occupation' movements across the U.S. and throughout the Arab world, and a determined effort by Canadians in cities across the country to communicate their dissatisfaction with the direction the governments in this country are going regarding rights, justice, environmental protection, war, and a plethora of social issues left off the agenda. About two thousand citizens of Victoria turned out for a truly inspirational event.
