July 1, 2010

Show Synopsis
  • Happy Canada Day, not much to be proud of after the shameful show of force that the Toronto Police and outside Rent-A-Cops perpetrated against the Peaceful protesters and Journalists at the G20 summit in Toronto.
  • We play a public statement by Amy Miller, an Independent Journalist who was detained in the Toronto Film Studio converted to a Guantanamo style holding prison.  She describes the atrocities that went on inside the detention centre, including the Extreme Cold, Strip Searches, (with an occasional FINGER SLIPPING IN!).  These FUCKIN' PIGS NEED TO BE BROUGHT TO JUSTICE! 
  • Ken Townsend was there reporting as a credited Journalist tells us about his experiences, and what he saw while he was on the streets of Toronto during the summit.
  • Sheena Cameron also recounts the events she witnessed at the summit.
  • We discuss the fact that many Canadians are in denial / ignorant to the fact that we are approaching a police state.  Demonstrations of Violent Force that the Toronto Police and hired thugs from outside the province unleashed upon the Peaceful Protesters is only a taste of what is to come.  
  • Ron reads posts from  Blue Line Forums, where police discuss how excited they were to come to Toronto to beat heads and make $$$$ in overtime.  Fascist Dogs.
  • Jessica speaks about the hyper-nationalism of many Canadians, and it's ties to Fascism.
  • SAY NO TO POLICE BRUTALITY AND CRIMINALIZATION OF DISSENT AT THE G20!
    Come hear testimonials from local activists and journalists who participated in the G20 protests.  We invite any other participants to join in and share their stories.  Together we will decide now to respond as a community.
    7:00 pm.

WOHIS Health and safety Minute:


It's June and time to be talking about heat stress.  WOHIS wants to remind everyone what you can do to protect yourself against heat stress:

  Drink more water

  Increase rest break periods

Reduce your pace of work and most important: Recognize the signs and  symptoms of heat stress, which include:

  headache, dizziness, excessive sweating, cramping, rashes, and fainting.

  Start a buddy system, since people will probably not notice their own symptoms.
  If you are suffering from heat stress, get to a cooler location and take a break.

  Employers have a duty to take every precaution reasonable in the circumstances for the protection of a worker.  This includes ensuring a worker is protected from heat stress by developing and implementing hot environment  policies and procedures.

  Heat stress is an important workplace health and safety issue.

For more information on this or any other health and safety related topic, please
contact WOHIS - Windsor Occupational Health Information Service - at 519-254-5157 or visit us at 3129 Marentette Avenue (directly behind the theatres at Devonshire Mall).
