==================================
The Olympics must be exposed and confronted and the fightback must
begin now. The effects of the Olympics are far greater than the games
itself - with gentrification of poor neighbourhoods through draconian
policies such as the Safe Streets Act, increasing privatization of
public services, the expansion of sport tourism on unceded indigenous
lands and increased land tenure to corporations, union busting through
decisions such as the seven-year imposed contract handed down to the
BC Ferry and Marine Workers Union, and exploitative conditions for
temporary migrant labour.
Anti-poverty groups in Vancouver have been on the front lines in the
struggle against the 2010 Olympics. Join 3 B.C. organizers to hear how
people are fighting back.
No Olympics on Stolen Native Land!
No Social Cleansing!
No Environmental Destruction!

pure and simple anarchism:
"an unhyphenated form of anarchism, that is, a doctrine without any
qualifying labels such as communist, collectivist, mutualist, or
individualist. For others, ... [it] was simply understood as an attitude
that [enjoyed] the coexistence of different anarchist schools."
