   I met Terrence 8 years ago - TODAY!   
      
      
   Together, WE MADE HISTORY.   
      
      
      
      
   Day: Monday   
      
      
   Date: October 4th 2004   
   (feast day of Saint Francis of Assisi, patron saint of the Poor)   
      
      
   10 am   
   =====   
   - walked into "Caramel Cuts" on Dalhousie (between Besserer St. +   
   Rideau St.)   
     downtown Ottawa, Canada's capital   
   - asked if it's possible to organize a "political" meeting to promote   
   the É(eh)PC,   
     the Égalité (eh’ga-lee-teh: equality) Party of Canada   
   - Terrence says OK, but says he doesN'T believe in politics, NOR in   
   voting for   
     that very same reason   
   - he tells me to come back at 3 pm   
      
      
   3 pm   
   ====   
   - there's A GANG of young, SMILING, HAPPY African-Canadians in their   
   twenties   
   - 2 people - especially - grab my attention: the white middle-aged   
     blond undercover cop in the barbershop chair along with an older NON-   
   SMILING,   
     GRIM-FACED African-Canadian who stays standing by the entrance   
   - I talk for about 5 minutes about the É(eh)PC and why it needs   
     their support   
   - everyone is SMILING and excited to pay $2 to join   
   - THEN, the older NON-SMILING African-Canadian at the back   
     *ORDERS* everyone to "KEEP YOUR MONEY IN YOUR POCKET"   
   - everybody slowly disperses, some now looking downcast pat me on   
     the back and wish me luck   
      
      
   3:10   
   ===   
   - I thanked Terrance who is SURPRISED by the outcome   
   - the other barbers, now GRIM-FACED, look the other way   
   - it was A SAD DAY in Canadian political history   
      
      
   THE KICKER   
   ==========   
   - the African-Canadian barber shop on Dalhousie where the 1st É(eh)PC   
     political meeting took place on October 4th 2004 was PROMPTLY   
     CLOSED   
   - another one was opened ACROSS THE STREET   
   - Terrance was NOT allowed to work at THE BRAND NEW ONE   
      
      
   THE SEQUEL   
   ==========   
   Revenue Canada   
   - November 2004 Revenue Canada *COMPLETELY* EMPTIES my bank   
     account alleging back taxes of over 10 years ago: I have *NO* MONEY!   
   - repeated talks with John McCallum's administrative assistant, John   
     McCallum was the Minister of Revenu Canada then and calls to Prime   
     Minister's Office of Paul Martin went no where   
   - the person in charge of collections for Revenue Canada tells me the   
     whole affair was POLITICAL and that it came from THE TOP: there   
     was nothing she said she could do for me   
      
   Ottawa Police   
   - April 27th 2005, the Ottawa Police sends their 4-person psychiatric   
   unit   
     with oxygen tank and stretcher to my apartment door with "the   
   papers"   
     to have me incarcerated in a mental institution: I refused to open   
   the door   
      
   - April 2006, the Ottawa Police lay charges that were staid in one   
   case in   
     August and in another case DISMISSED in January 2007   
      
   Social Assistance   
   - November 2006, refused social assistance   
   - Dr. Ruiz, a psychiatrist, at the St. Catherine Street Office becomes   
   my   
     social worker: he gives me social assistance only after asking   
   "provo-   
     cative" questions, but does NOT give me THE AMOUNT PROMISED to   
     avoid eviction   
      
   Stewart Street   
   - evicted in April 2007 from my 125 Stewart Street apartment after 30   
     years of residency (The superintendent had been replaced by an   
   under-   
     cover cop in mid-2006. Former Latino superintendent was NOT allowed   
     to say anything about that.)   
   - evidence of spy cameras was found in living room and NEW fire alarm   
     from a several years ago turned out to have a spy camera   
      
      
   Vancouver (April - July 2007)   
   ====================   
   - just after moving into the Vogue Hotel on Granville Street an   
   undercover   
     cop sporting a ponytail starts working at the reception desk: he   
   makes   
     a point to befriend me and come to talk to me whenever he can   
   - undercover cops came every day to talk to those at the reception   
   desk   
   - then, guests had to "sign in" using ID at the reception desk   
   - then, an undercover cop moves in next to me   
   - was given social assistance for June at the 300-1725 Robson Street   
     social assistance office   
   - for July though I was REFUSED social assistance: I was told I had   
   to   
     go on MENTAL DISABILITY because I was "mentally ill", but first I   
   had   
     to talk to the psychiatrist waiting to talk to me which I REFUSED   
   - expecting SERIOUS TROUBLE I left Vancouver - ASAP   
      
      
   Fredericton, New Brunswick (mid-July 2007)   
   ===============================   
   - I was refused social assistance because I had NOT stayed at the   
     shelter the night before   
   - I had NOT stayed at the shelter because there were NOT enough   
     beds and the shelter already had a dozen people on a waiting list,   
     I became #13   
   - so I slept ON THE PORCH of the Legislature Building till I was   
     PUSHED onto the sidewalk at midnight by the Police who said   
     that if I stayed on the grounds of the Legislature I'd be charge   
     with trespassing   
      
      
   Currently   
   =======   
   Seaton House   
   - since July 25th 2007 been living at Seaton House, a men's shelter,   
     downtown Toronto with undercover cops + CIA agents as roommates   
     in addition to being under AUDIO-VIDEO SURVEILLANCE in my room   
     (One of the undercover cops even had AIDS! He offered to lend me   
   his   
      razor.)   
      
   Cops   
   - the cops in Toronto have tried to have me "committed" as a   
   psychiatric   
     patient   
   - the cops in Toronto have tried to send me jail   
   - was *illegally* detained + INTERROGATED FOR TWO (2) HOURS by   
     the Police   
     at Ryerson University, mid-September 2007, with TWO (2) PAIRS of   
     handcuffs on that were EXTRA TIGHT for writing in chalk eh-ok.ca in   
     front of the Ryerson bookstore   
   - was charged with trespassing on Yonge-Dundas Square when I was   
     IN FACT on Yonge Street OPPOSING the presence of a Canadian   
     Armed Forces kiosk (on Yonge-Dundas Square beside Yonge Street)   
     at the August 2009 Turkish Festival + THE KILLING of innocent   
   Muslims   
     by our soldiers in the Middle East   
   - was later BEATEN UP in 2010 by two (2) undercover cops that turn   
     out to be CIA agents as well   
   - an undercover cop offered to pay my way back to Vancouver and   
     promised that I'd have no problems there   
   - undercover cops keep reminding me that I'm being watched   
   - harassment by the Police is ongoing   
      
      
   THE MESSAGE   
   ============   
   Canada is A *VERY* DANGEROUS FASCIST Police state that has ZERO   
   TOLERANCE for any kind of opposition.   
      
   PROOF is the THOUSANDS of ILLEGAL undercover cops that probably   
   make more $$$ than the Prime Minister and for whom there is NO LEGIS-   
   LATION to justify their existence. They crisscross the country in   
   buses,   
   trains, and planes supposedly looking for criminals, but resort to   
   getting   
   people as young as 16 to be pushers and end up by sending their   
   pushers
