Hamilton: Ungovernables and Yuppie Tears: A Saturday night on Locke St

Text received as an anonymous submission Every day — whether it’s the landlords charging ever more rent for ever shittier apartments, the boss pushing you to work harder, the business association lobbying for more cops, or just the Audi that cuts you off in rush hour — the rich make our lives worse.

Hamilton: Action Against Pig Mobiles

This post was made on A-News and reposted here by a person who turned out to be an undercover police officer. We leave it up as local history, but it’s a fake action carried out by a fake and predatory person.

Work Stoppage on Enbridge Line 10

  With the rise of Donald Trump’s malignant right wing troll army and the extension of Toronto’s tentacles into every cavern of our cities, the anti-pipeline movement in Southern Ontario has been spread a little thin this year.

New Zine: What’s a Justin Trudeau? On Social Peace and Canadian Nationalism

This text was written in Spring 2017 as an attempt at using the Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau, as a case study to understand the project that is Canada and how the so-called “Canadian identity” has been structured over the last sixty years. Trudeau II’s aura has faded somewhat since then. Although he is still able to position himself as a champion of a “proudly progressive Canadian-ness”, his cancelling of the Read More …

Post edited on May 30, 2019, to remove the name and photo of a former Proud Boy. This individual has left the organization, expressed a lot of regret, and moved to apologize and make amends, so identifying them as a fascist no longer feels appropriate. His name has been replaced by *** throughout A rally attempted by the Brantford chapter of the Proud Boys on the Laurier Brantford campus was Read More …
