Tonight I find shame in being a Haligonian…. you all should google the videos of the eviction of Occupy NS  and you will be ashamed  of our Police….

Our Mayor and Council our Regional Police Force have brought great shame on the people of Halifax. A police action against peaceful citizens can not be tolerated  as history has shown. Are our civic leader totalitarians , no  I don’t believe that   but I can only conclude they are idiots who   know nothing of  history they seem destined to repeat.

On November 9-10 1938 a government in Austria stopped civil  voice  on Kristallnacht, also referred to as the Night of Broken Glass, this was a pogrom or series of attacks against Jews throughout Nazi Germany and parts of Austria  it is sad that on this anniversary the government of Halifax was to quell protest and silence the fringes of society… who will be the next silenced?

The time has come  for the people to be heard . A peaceful demonstration was hijacked by lies and duplicity . These men and women trusted and respected the civic authority that today deceived them.

I know Peter Kelly to be a good man but his actions and the actions of the City of Halifax  today can not and will not go quietly. The Occupy Nova Scotia protest was not without its flaws but its message and spirit were and are peaceful. The Mayor and city were by in large trusted and did in appearance support the peaceful demonstration by Occupy. Then without warning during the most solemn ceremony of remembrance begin an eviction worthy of the Gestapo or stazi , political leader showed  cowardice and ran for cover… the NDP government is as great a shame to the people as the city for its silence.. the leader of the liberal party walked past the encampment on Friday afternoon only to talk with the police and not one word to the protesters … all signals that the time has come to replace these politicians with voices of the people…

In a world of instability the trust in government and police is of paramount importance  and that today was betrayed in Halifax  it doesn’t matter if you supported or opposed the occupy movement the methods used were an attack on the very democracy and freedom they purport to protect.  The time has come to end this with the ballot box and completely replace the voices of ignorance  with voice of the future.
