Metro - No end in sight for Occupy Vancouver

Metro - No end in sight for Occupy Vancouver These people get props for endurance.I'll bet the Mr.Conservative folks that are spitting and cursing at them wouldn't last a night.It's been cold and wet for an awful lot of this protest but the protesters are determined to stay for the long haul.People might think that there are more productive ways to spend your time but then they probably just don't get it anyhow.People are pissed and feel they don't have any voice in Harper's Canada.There is no doubt after three job actions have been legislated to an end and a huge game changing crime bill was rammed through with little or no debate.That democracy is dead in this country for the duration of the Harper dictatorship.By limiting debate to two days on a bill that crams 9 bills into one huge mess that appeals to no one but Harper and the advisors he uses.That would be the victims of violent crime.These people are just too angry to approach legislation with anything but a jaded view at best.At worst we get the bill we see in parliament today.A mish mash of conservative ideology,christian right severity and little or no complementary data.An unjustified shift to the right at a time when crime is at all time lows and being reduced every year.Of course the conservatives have all kinds of excuses to explain this away.Their excuses are as uninformed as they are.People do not sit out in the rain in protest of nothing at all.There are very good and valid reasons that the average Canadian feels he is powerless.Harper and his minority(in support)government ruling like a petty despot is only one.
