Mainstream Media Reports Anti-2010 Action

(I don’t know much about this paper. I know it’s a small free daily in Vancouver that in the past has covered some anti-2010 protests in Vancouver. Previously, none of the up to 20 acts of resistance have been covered by the mainstream media. My guess is that the media (or at least this paper) is running with the news that some anti-terrorist wannabe-spy published some lame-ass report calling anti-2010 vandals terrorists. That or they are joining the voices of resistance to the colonial expansion. Either way, shout-out to Harriet Nahanee, and all she stood and died for.)
Vandals hit truck tied to 2010
By BOB MACKIN, 24 HOURS
An anonymous blog message claimed responsibility for torching a truck belonging to Peter Kiewit and Sons construction on the night of May 7.
The May 9 message on mostlywater.org referred to Kiewit’s work on the Sea-to-Sky highway, “the main artery for the Olympics.”
“This is not the first act of resistance to PK+S and hopefully not the last,” said the posting.

The author of the message misspelled the name of Harriet Nahanee, the Squamish Nation elder who was jailed for blocking Kiewit crews trying to expand the highway through Eagleridge Bluffs in 2006. Nahanee died in early 2007 after her release.

Anarchist blogs have buzzed with activity since last fall with similar anonymous messages recounting window-smashing incidents at Vancouver, Victoria and Ottawa branches of VANOC-sponsor Royal Bank of Canada.
