There were reports of five missing but now all are accounted for, so that's good news.

Yes, and others are in critical condition. It is horrible.

Remember, International Workers' Memorial Day is coming up on the 27th...

Friend from B.C. doing a radio show on 25th re: workers-  Co-OP radio CFRO 102.7 Day of Mourning 2012, and will bring current paradigm, and recent activites up to date, and forcast for the future / trajectories of WCB ,' Insurance and Health care schemes in Canada. Boyland of course takes up too much time with well....'radio nonsense' but still it will be for the non-existent deeper workers thinkers if anyone interested. Always pisses off the wcb tho [ :p

http://www.iqeng.com/   So these guys get rebates and fight the worker out, they take care of everything, Against The Workers.  No objective gov't body who are concered about the workers. It was a 'flashover' and the families are fucked,

I think I might want a workers revolution now, NOW. Canadians won't do it, they are finished considering the odds against.


OK this is kinda fascinating, no rhyme or reason I can figure out. On the wee outpoint from my balcony a huge display of fireworks was just let off. So I grabbed my bincos's, not a person to be seen and more fireworks on display. So interesting......If I wasn't already in my p.j.s I'd be off.
