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

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

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.

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 …

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. 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 …
