Fair Democracy for Christmas (BC PR referendum) - Street Prof Vlog 20

Image
This is my final video from last night, others uploading.... and this one needs captioning I don't have time to do just now..... what's in the Solidarity Crisis Pt 1 video is actually the conclusion of the very-partial history of the Peace Movement & Solidarity years and who the Restraint Budget was politically punitive and meant to squash the "progressive" spirit (using the American term) on the streets ALL over the province.  This covers some of what Bill Bennett gave as payback to those who had helped him win that year.... and Bill's dirtiest other private scandal, the Nicola Lands Scandal, which no one knows about because of the censoring/looking-the-other way friendly-to-the Socred media..... Lots packed in all my videos... but this one gets into what I am demanding, and we all should - an extension, translation of the ballots, and more ballot boxes/voting places... where those who have been excluded from the mail-out and don't have time to go to Ser

I'll be posting my playlist link in a few minutes... they're not in order or numbered properly yet... so note the playlist link and though of my vlogs are long they're all juicy so if you want to know about how politics works under FPTP, leave the list play while you cook or putter or walk or ride the bus. Gotta go, too many things to do before I head to Victoria, which I'd been hoping to

Voter Suppression in the British Columbia referendum Vlogger calls for extension of the vote until New Years. Poor, young and minorities marginalized from voting due to mail-out ballot. my new video will be better to share... not so much to read...., it'll be up in an hour or so. Vlog 6 Sunday Nov 23, from the bottom my cul-de-sac after a walk to the store. Skookum1 speaks... loud and large and to the point, with vlogs, incarnating as "the Street Professor" on Youtube. Everybody in BC please watch the new video I'll upload once my phone's done recharging. Gonna inbox some of you around BC soon. I'm using the Street Professor on Youtube and added my blogname Skookum1 as it's known to the other side and will strike dread into their hearts because of my roles on the BC Mary blog and on The Tyee and Wikipedia.
