Canadians Defend Your country!
























Wake up Canada!! Its time to put your differences aside and stand together against the threat called the United States and their goals to assimilate us. America is the biggest threat to our distinct cultures that make us Canadian.

The recent SPP Protest in Montebello Quebec and the Police infiltration should be the wake up call everyone needs. The whole point of the conference is to remove our currency and our Canadian freedom to adapt to a new currency called the “Amero”. Doing so would place your money in the hands of the USA and their Federal Reserve Private Bankers. American corporate Imperialism called freedom is trying to control and kill our country. Its time to stand up and say, “bugger off” to all American influence.

I feel like I’m in a Star Trek episode and America is like the “BORG” , they say, “Resistance is Futile”…the Conservative Government doesn’t have the balls to stand up for Canadian Interests and instead they bend to American political and corporate wishes. Just as they have always done with examples such as with Free Trade, and the Avro Arrow.

Not only has the Harper Government turned down a public inquiry into the incident at Montebello, they have denied Canadian citizens their right to know. It is as if Harper personally ordered undercover cops to infiltrate a peaceful protest to incite a riot. That is a tactic the Nazi’s used in the 1930’s. Can it be proved, no, but he is the commander in chief and therefore he is responsible. So why has he decided not to hold an inquiry? Why isn’t the press all over this?

Stand Up Canada!

This is a rally cry for all of Canada’s people. Stand up and DEMAND our exit from Afghanistan by the spring of 2008. The Liberals and Conservatives should never have put our soldiers in harms way! We support our soldiers 100% that is why we want you to bring them home!! “Get Up, Stand Up”, stand up for your rights!

If your MP’s cannot pledge to you that they will oppose the things killing our nation such as the War in Afghanistan, Concentration of Action to reduce Global Warming, Removal of International Bankers control on our Currency, and to exit the Security and Prosperity Partnership, then its time to vote for someone who will take action!!!

I will not sit by and watch my country bend to the USA anymore!! Stop buying American products, don’t buy insurance from their companies, don’t eat at their restaurants, stop buying their cars, demand a War crimes trial against the USA for waging aggressive war in Iraq and for committing war crimes such as the phosphor bombing in Fallujah Iraq.

Documentary 2005 "Hidden Massacre”


Fallujah, The Hidden Massacre is a documentary film by Sigfrido Ranucci and Maurizio Torrealta which first aired on Italy's RAI state television network on November 8, 2005. The film documents the use of weapons that the documentary asserts are chemical weapons, particularly the use of incendiary bombs, and alleges indiscriminate use of violence against civilians and children by military forces of the United States of America in the city of Fallujah in Iraq during the Fallujah Offensive of November 2004.

The film's primary themes are:

Establishing a case for war crimes against civilians committed by the United States.
Documenting evidence for the use of chemical devices by the US military.
Documenting other human rights abuses by American forces and their Iraqi counterparts.

Call your Political Representative:

Demand that your country invest in renewable energy and new technology to combat Global Warming! Don’t let us fall behind the world in technical solutions or industry. Don’t let the American insurance companies undermine all our provincial Medicare systems. Stop them from eroding our everyday life pleasures such as children’s sports, or unsupervised swimming in lakes and rivers or making us pay to insure everything under the sun. Demand that the Canadian Government stop siding with American War Criminals from Washington.

Siding with American War Criminals like George Bush and Dick Cheney makes Canada look bad in the international community. We do not want any part of their Fascism!! Restore our honour, we are NOT a warring nation, we are a peaceful nation. Government is supposed to work for you, not the other way around. Stop International bankers from enslaving the Canadian people to debt. Remove the central Banks lawlessness on credit and debt before they take everything from you in an economic crunch! This is the only chance we have. Do it now before your freedoms disappear!

  1. What Really Happened at Montebello Quebec,

    I wasn't entirely sure what to expect when I arrived in Montebello on
    Monday morning, to protest the Security and Prosperity Partnership
    (SPP). I had left from London the Saturday prior, travelling by carpool
    with other activists. None of us had any experience with protests of
    this intensity or magnitude. Long before we reached the town limits we
    had been exposed to a non-stop campaign of disinformation; the residents
    of Montebello didn't want us there, they were closing businesses, there
    was only going to be a few hundred people protesting, etc. . . Nothing I
    had seen or heard prepared me for the surprise that awaited me.

    We hadn't even reached the town yet when the police presence became
    noticeable. After passing through two police checkpoints, we drove
    through Papineauville. In this small Quebec town, around 6km east of
    Montebello, the police were guarding a boarded up McDonald's restaurant.
    This blatant display of the corporate-state alliance came as a shock
    even to the seasoned activists within our ranks. In total we were told
    that around 3000 police were present, including police from the Quebec
    Provincial Police, Ontario Provincial Police, York Region Municipal
    Police, Peel Region Municipal Police, and the Royal Canadian Mounted
    Police.

    We continued our drive through Papineauville, and the police presence
    only became stronger. Police were now standing ever 10m along the side
    of highway 148, heading towards Montebello. As soon as the 3m high
    security fence surrounding Chateau Montebello, the posh resort where the
    secret meeting was taking place, came into view our car was stopped
    along with two school buses filled with protesters. Eventually we were
    allowed to continue into the town.

    Protesters had congregated near the independent media centre around 600m
    down the street from the front gates of the Chateau. The town itself was
    quite beautiful; a quaint yet picturesque Quebec resort town. It seemed
    on odd setting for another battle in the war against globalization, but
    it was here that the ruling classes had decided to hold their meeting
    and it was here that we would give them a showdown.

    After parking our car on a side street, we managed to join the parade to
    the front gates of the Chateau Montebello. We grabbed goggles to protect
    against teargas, bandannas to protect our identities, distributed
    first-aid supplies amongst our group, and picked up our drums. Marching,
    we flew our upside-down Comerica flag emblazoned with the slogan "UNITED
    WE FALL", all the while keeping a steady march beat.

    The parade was impressive in-and-of-itself. Over 10 000 activists and
    Montebello residents filled the streets. We came from a variety of
    causes; there were anarchists, communists, environmentalists, LGBT
    activists, and other progressives of all sorts. Despite our differences
    we were able to stand united against secret, anti-democratic deals,
    corporate power, and most of all the SPP.

    Making our way through the crowd, me and my group came to be near the
    front where the police were blocking the march from making it to the
    gates of the Chateau. Initially the baton-wielding police were in a
    loose formation but upon seeing the sheer mass of our movement they
    consolidated their lines across all four lanes of highway. All the while
    we continued to drum, and the protest remained peaceful.

    It wasn't long before the police, clad in olive and from the Surete du
    Quebec (Quebec Provincial Police), began pushing against the crowd. I
    managed to get to the front to help hold our line and put my bucket drum
    between myself and the officer in front of me. I asked questions such as
    "Why are you doing this to us?", "What have we done that warrants
    this?", and "Aren't you concerned about what's going on inside of the
    closed-door meetings?". The only reply I garnered was "Go back!" and a
    baton to the jaw.

    Unfortunately not all were as lucky when it came to this direct
    confrontation with the police. Kevin Lomack, trade unionist and member
    of the Council of Canadians from London, was pulled into the police
    lines and arrested for peacefully resisting the police advancement.
    Witnesses of his arrest confirm that he was not violent towards the
    police in any manner. It gradually became clearer and clearer that the
    police weren't discerning between violence and non-violence and had
    already decided that all of us were their enemies.

    Realizing that we were fighting a losing battle trying to push the
    police back, those of us in the middle of the highway near the median
    opted for an impromptu sit-in. Following calls of "Sit down!" and
    "Assi!", the other protesters near the front followed suit. The police
    remained violent towards the protesters, kneeing several in the head.
    They were however unable to move us and we actually managed to move our
    line forward, inching ahead as the police shifted members on and off the
    line.

    Word then began spreading that a group of anarchists had just left from
    the Montebello train station and were heading towards the front to
    attempt to push through the police line. The police heard as well, and
    the latest shift wore gas masks to prepare for the tear-gas onslaught.
    Many of us sitting down scrambled to cover our own bandannas in vinegar
    to avoid the pain of being gassed. Despite the continued police presence
    and instigation cries of "Peaceful protest!" rang out above the crowd.
    Our intentions were clear.

    I then saw one of the most shocking events of the day. Several
    corporate-media reporters had been congregating near the front of the
    lines, and many were allowed through the police line in order to report
    from the other side. Through a gap in the police line I managed to see
    one reporter and cameraman being told to leave, so as to allow the
    police to step up their violence without media coverage. The corporate
    reporter gladly complied.

    It was shortly after the sit-in began when the anarchists finally
    marched to the front lines. Their coming was heralded by a massively
    loud car-mounted stereo-system playing inspirational music, as well as
    an agile protester who managed to climb a lamppost to hang a black-flag
    from the top. An American flag was also hung from the lamppost and
    burned to great cheers from the crowd. The only disappointment was that
    Canadian the Canadian flag wasn't burned along side.

    The police then began stepping up their campaign of violence on the
    protesters and fired some tear-gas into a group of Marxist
    revolutionaries from the RCP-PRC on the other side of the median. They
    were dispersed, but others quickly filled their places in order to hold
    the line. On our side of the median police began advancing on the
    sitting protesters closest to the Chateau's gates. One protester grabbed
    onto a tree for fear of being arrested and remained there for at least
    two hours. His hands were severely beaten by police with batons,
    possibly leading to broken fingers, and he was kicked by police to the
    point that his legs bled. It was clear that he was in a great deal of
    pain but he kept holding onto the tree. To my knowledge the police were
    not able to arrest him that day.

    Around 200m down the street, the police had split the protest in half by
    taking positions along the wall of an elevated graveyard at the main
    intersection in Montebello. This show of force isolated those of us at
    the front lines, and pushed thousands of protesters back towards the
    east end of town. I was not able to see if the police used tear-gas to
    disperse the crowd in this instance, but the speed at which the crowd
    dispersed would suggest they did.

    Meanwhile, in the chaos that was unfolding at the front, I had been
    separated from my group. I left the sit-in and managed to find most of
    them supporting the protester who was still hanging onto the tree. What
    ensued was nothing less than incredible; amidst all the police
    repression the artistic spirit could not be crushed. A spontaneous
    jam session that consisted of all kinds of drums, cowbells, dancing, and
    vocalists arose to the beat of a lone man carrying a yak-horn horn and
    singing "Ommmm...". This lasted for approximately two hours until one of
    the police officers grabbed a cow-bell from a female protester. This was
    met with angry cries of "MORE COW-BELL!". The cowbell was never
    returned.

    Once again we began to beat on our drums but this was cut short when
    speeches rang out from the other side of the median. In both English and
    French the speakers lauded the protesters and provided inspirational
    words. One of the speakers yelled "Today, Canadian troops continue to
    occupy Afghanistan so we have every right to be in their face and to
    confront this summit!". All of this was in spite of several canisters of
    an unknown white powder that police had begun firing to clear the crowd
    on the other side of the median.

    Shortly after the speeches were finished, an elderly woman near the
    front of the police lines was hit in the face with a pepper-spray
    canister, fired at point blank range by the police. The impact and
    subsequent release of chemicals blinded the woman. The attack came
    completely unprovoked; the woman had been a peaceful protester. After
    six hours of peaceful protest, it was this act that led to the violence
    that was coming.

    Following the blatant show of police brutality, several of the
    protesters on the other side of the median from where my group was began
    hurtling rocks at the police. This was not unprovoked aggression on part
    of the protesters; the police had been firing tear-powder canisters and
    pepper-spray all day. It was the police brutality displayed in firing at
    the elderly woman that set off a powder keg of frustrations. Violence on
    the part of the protesters was purely an act of self-defence.

    As opposed to stopping the escalating violence the police continued on.
    They now began firing plastic bullets into the largely retreating crowd
    of protesters. One man was hit in the leg four times and was not able to
    walk away. The entire time the people in my section of the median had
    been doing nothing but playing instruments or standing. It came as a
    great surprise when the police advanced on us.

    Our side of the median was a purely peaceful zone; nothing was thrown at
    the police, and we kept a distance of 1m between ourselves and the
    police line. This did not matter to the blue-clad members of the RCMP as
    they began firing tear-powder canisters into our side and advancing on
    us. As this continued it became impossible to stay in our area, and I
    was forced to flee due to the gassing.

    Many of the retreating protesters headed towards a small creek around
    100m from the gates of the Chateau in order to escape the chaos and wash
    their eyes out. The injuries sustained did not matter to the police
    present; instead they saw the congregation of wounded protesters as an
    easy target and fired more tear-powder into our general direction. I was
    helping a blinded protester from Montreal with water that I was carrying
    in my backpack when I had to run away because of the powder in the air.

    With my eyes stinging I stumbled forward through the chaos past the main
    intersection. Fortunately a woman saw the pain I was in and offered
    lemon to rub on my eyes. I was skeptical at first but once I tried it
    the pain went away almost immediately. It wasn't long before I saw
    another protester in a great deal of pain, and so I began searching
    through my bag for a grapefruit that I had packed. Thankfully, despite
    not being a lemon, the grapefruit worked and relieved the man of the
    burning sensation the powder had caused.

    I then began to move towards the main intersection in town handing out
    pieces of grapefruit to those that needed it. Even though the crowd was
    completely in retreat at this point the police were still firing
    tear-powder into the mass of people. Once I had run out of grapefruit I
    was on the receiving end of another tear-powder attack, and was forced
    to run blindly searching for a hose that a resident of Montebello was
    allowing us to use to clean our eyes. Thankfully a group of anarchists
    lit a bonfire in the middle of the street preventing the police from
    advancing any further.

    Little did we know at the time --though it was suspected-- that agent
    provocateurs, in other words the "plain-clothes officers" that the
    police had admitted to planting with our line, had started the violence.
    After six hours of peaceful protest the police agents began to throw
    rocks at the police on the line, which resulted in the police
    retaliating against peaceful protesters. Indeed several times during the
    day police were seen hand signalling with "protesters". Other
    "protesters" were breaking apart the asphalt and using one of our
    bucket-drums in order to collect rocks and place them near the median.
    When one member of my group heard about this he spent several hours
    collecting the rocks and throwing them over a fence where they could not
    be used.

    What finally provided the undeniable evidence that police agents were
    attempting to start violence occurred shortly after 3PM. Union leader
    Dave Coles (of the CEP) attempted to take rocks from the hands of three
    burly looking men dressed as anarchists. Other protesters accused them
    of being police, and instead of turning away the three retreated towards
    the police line. After one of the men conversed with police, the three
    were allowed through the line where they were "arrested" and brought to
    white vans. Later footage showed that the three men were wearing the
    exact same combat boots as were issued to the Quebec Provincial Police.

    By the time 7PM rolled around most of the violence had ended. The police
    had consolidated their position near the main intersection and were now
    guarding a gas station. As the sun set, my group geared up for one more
    march through the streets. Shielding our eyes against the gleam of
    visors in the distance we flew our banner high (along with a newly
    acquired red flag) and marched towards the police while playing our
    drums. Upon reaching the intersection we stopped, but were eventually
    forced to move back due to the tear-powder that was still present in
    piles on the ground. As we marched through the streets residents cheered
    us on for showing the police that despite the fact they had won the
    battle, they had not yet won the war.

    The tear-powder remained on the streets until around 10PM when a
    street-cleaner made its way through the town, making it nearly
    impossible for residents and pets to go about their normal lives. The
    police showed no remorse in firing the possibly toxic substance into
    residential and forested areas, most likely doing a great deal of damage
    to the local ecosystem. We met one man that was forced to save a dog
    whose owner had been arrested; the dog was tied to the gas station and
    had been exposed to the tear-powder for four hours. Once the man sprayed
    antacid solution onto the dog's face it collapsed in relief.

    One of the highlights of the day occurred later on in the evening. Some
    of my group were walking through the street when two residents
    approached us with their small dog. They began to complain about the
    police, and welcome us to Montebello. When asked how they felt about the
    SPP the oldest of the two men responded "Bush, Harper... assholes!
    Tabernac! The cops are jerks, you guys are cool. You are most welcome
    here,".

    Unfortunately we were unable to return to Montebello on Tuesday due to
    a car accident we were involved in while heading to the encampment to
    sleep (nobody was seriously hurt). I would like to commend the brave
    individuals who did return, in spite of the excruciating experiences the
    day before. Contrary to what the corporate media showed there were
    several hundred protesters within Montebello on Tuesday, and bonfires
    were again lit in the streets to prevent the police from advancing. But
    then again the corporate media coverage came as no surprise; if 10 000
    can become a few hundred, and working-class resistance can become "sad",
    surely a few hundred with bonfires blazing was easily dismissed as
    nothing.

    Martin


    I don't know who he is but everything is accurate except the count of
    protesters - not anywhere near 10,000, more like 1,000. Maybe it's a typo.
    The other thing is that there was no pepper spray or tear gas or powder
    anywhere else but the front of the line, right at the doors to the Chateau,
    unless it happened right at the end of the day, around 6 p.m. when everybody
    had to retreat, or else they would all be arrested. And I was pretty close
    to the front until about 5:15.

    Very good report, overall...

  2. Thanks for providing contact information to the International Court. Can Americans use the same case number as you recieved for your complaint to the International Court? Or must we get a different case number? Peace.

    ReplyDelete
  3. @ Court Case Number...Yes, please feel free to use the number in your letter or email to the International Criminal Court of Justice (Office of the Prosecutor). In fact, you can even quote the number and ask the Court the same question in your communication. Lets shove justice in the faces of Bush & Cheney…and their corporate backers. Fighting back with the truth and higher moral ground is the best way to stick it to them. :o)
