Gentrification is Scary

On Halloween night a crew of 100 peeps in costumes marched on the neighborhood of Hochelaga in Montreal, and handed candy to kids and neighbors. They also spray painted condominiums and businesses they say are contributing to gentrification. They also smashed luxury cars and when a cop cruiser tried to run them over they responded with a volley of rocks, and like ghosts disappeared into the night.

Oil Pipelines are easy to shutdown

In less than a year seven oil pipelines in the US and Canada have been shutdown by climate activists, costing oil companies millions. Here’s how they did it. CORRECTION: In our haste to produce a video homage to Jean Leger, we mis-identified the three people in Sarnia as women, when two identify as queer and one as non-gender binary. We apologize for this oversight and will do our best to research the gender identities of people in our videos.

Solidarity action with the ZAD of Notre-Dame-des-Landes

On the eve of the end of the week of international mobilization against the airport NDDL and it’s world, we held banners for half and hour in support of the ZAD at the ICAO Headquarters, to disrupt, if only for moments, their barren universe. The ZAD in NDDL is not only a foot in the mouth of the French government, AGO Vinci, and all the shareholders of this airport project, but also an example of autonomy, self-defense and a breach of their attempt to commodify everything around them. ...

Call For Renewed Actions In Solidarity With The Prison Strike, October 15-22

It hardly seems necessary to summarize what has gone down inside U.S. prisons since September 9th. Hunger strikes, work stoppages, and riots have spread throughout the country on a scale that we likely aren’t even fully aware of yet. Some uprisings appeared took us by surprise, such as in several Florida prisons , while others presumably grew from recent organizing endeavors on the inside, such as at Kinross in Michigan or Holman in Alabama.

Unbolting against the new Hydro-Quebec High-Tension Line

This summer, during nocturnal escapades, around thirty pylons had bolts removed. They were unbolted to different degrees, on some there are bars missing, others shake with the wind, threatening to collapse. The construction of hydroelectric dams has devastated territories, polluted rivers and ravaged life that exists there. It isn’t a clean energy. High-tension lines are part of a large network of energy transportation infrastructures, along with pipelines, ports, highways, airports, etc. Their construction serves only one goal: industrial development. Let’s sabotage the world that needs such constructions, in all its forms. We used ratchets and 15/16 and 1 1/8 sized parts. ...
