From #HoMa to #HamOnt: The secret is to round up your loser friends

Posted on2 Comments

Submitted anonymously to MTL Counter-info These thugs are no better than the anarchists. Don’t they know the financial burden that their vandalism will have on the Tower’s landlord? Don’t they understand that boarded up windows will bring down property values in the neighbourhood around the Tower?? Engaging in this kind of violence just creates lawlessness, and legitimizes the destruction of private property. When we heard that the Tower got attacked, Read More …

Staying Solid Through The Flurry: An Anarchist Perspective on the Kirkendall Riot

Posted on4 Comments

Received as an anonymous submission. I wasn’t there on Aberdeen or Locke that night. I don’t know who was, and I’m not interested in knowing who was. I don’t necessarily think it was the most strategic or timely action in Hamilton’s history of resistance, but I certainly don’t condemn it. Far from it. I think it was brave, I think it was well-executed, and I think it was a meaningful Read More …

Hamilton: The Tower’s Statement on Recent Events

Posted on6 Comments

From The Tower, Hamilton’s Anarchist Social Centre, after a riot on Locke St Saturday, their windows smashed Sunday night, and then their door kicked in Tuesday night We’ve held off on making any public statements so far because it’s really not our desire to have conversations on the internet, such a toxic and alienating place. But having had our space attacked twice in the last couple of days, we feel Read More …

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

Posted on6 Comments

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. Every day we have to deal with their attacks on us, but every once in a while Read More …

Hamilton: Action Against Pig Mobiles

Posted on2 Comments

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. Posters and stickers have been distributed for an upcoming anarchist bookfair in Hamilton on March 3 and 4 2018. Why not have the pigs advertise the event for us! Read More …

Interview: Resisting Prison Pay Cuts

Posted on

From CFRC Prison Radio  CPR brings you an interview about the latest Federal Court ruling on prison wages. In 2013, the Conservative Government introduced a 30% pay cut to wages for work done by prisoners and called it a “food and accommodation tax” as well as eliminating incentive pay work done at CORCAN facilities, a government agency that contracts out prison labour to both the public and private sector. Prisoners Read More …

Work Stoppage on Enbridge Line 10

Posted on

  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. We’ve pulled off a couple work-stoppages, some night-time sabotage, and made our best effort at storming the closed-door meetings of the NEB, but on the whole we’ve lacked a coordinated strategy. But Read More …

Kingston’s Winter Anarchist Zine Club is Back

Posted on

It’s winter, which is traditionally a time of more reading, reflection and discussion than the busy summers.

Zine Club is a local reading group that meets every other Tuesday at 7pm at 99 York Street. Short texts are chosen by participants that have some relevance to anarchist ideas and Read More …
