They sure built a fantastic case about the "defendent" whose name they managed to keep so secret. A woman whose allegations we3re considered "suspect" because she had been sexually assualted numerous times before? A woman whose allegations were considered suspicious because she has suffered a mental illness in the past? Did it ever occur to you fuckers that she experienced mental illness because she was a woman? A working class woman of colour in the united...

Canada's inveterate broadcaster and voice of all the late evenings of my childhood has passed, at the age of 85 years. Lister Sinclair died early this morning in a Toronto hospital and as I listened to the story on the news, I could not help but cry. IDEAS was the programme that came on jsut as my bedtime approached in my early childhood, and later in my teen years became to programme I stayed up to listen to. The tone was quiet, contemplative. The stories beautiful, profound and wide-ranging. And burnt into my memory, like a smell of home, Lister's colonial British...

I booked a ticket, as mentioned, for September 5th. I thought I had a place to stay until then, but it turns out I was wrong, so I am going to go to Victoria and up island for the 5 days that I will be officially homeless. That means that, if you are in Vancouver, that my last week to see you will be this one. And I have so many millions of things to do this week. Call me if you want to hang out. Otherwise, come to the Going Away Party that I am throwing for myself. It will be Thursday August 31st starting around 530pm at Kits Beach. There is a reason...

I am trying to work on my thesis (going poorly), coordinate this GD magazine (not really happening), organise an anti-war movement (up and down), have a social life (teeny bit) and be in love (a lot). I am stressing about my thesis work - 25 pages due by Sept 15 and i have a severe lack of ideas - and about this magazine - I leave town on the 5th and need ot have all of my work done by then - and about how i will manage to see and say goodbye to all the people i love for another 8 months while i go off to school yet again.

There was a tension floating in the air, an anger that I haven't felt in public since that one rainy night 3 years ago at an Iraq war protest when someone got hit by a car that smashed into the march. It was rainy and cold and dark that night. Yesterday was sunny, bright and hot. The music was loud and intense, billowing out of loudspeakers. It too sounded angry, and the pictures of dead people looked angry and the voices coming out of microphones were angry and anger was everywhere in the crowd. And the crowd seemed smaller. I know, a...
