Do you realize that by supporting global democracy
Ottawa, you are doing the following:

- Supporting a group that wants to stop discussions
between legitimately elected officials and others they
choose to talk to. As a local community group, how can
you reconcile supporting those who wish to prevent
others from speaking with your own views on freedom?
- Supporting a group that may be violent and/or that
seems to be assisting violent protesters.
- Encouraging violence because of this support.
- Giving suburbanites another reason to hate downtown,
insist that it is a wasteland, and that your tax
dollars should be used to develop the peaceful
suburbs. (if you doubt this, spend some time in Kanata
and find out what they think of people who live in the
core and how much they care.)
- Giving city dwellers another reason to flee to the
suburbs.
- Asking the city to use your tax dollars for housing.
Not of the poor or homeless, but fellow protesters who
choose to come here. Even those who will vandalize
your own neighbourhood.

>From your web page, you are obviously an extreme left
wing group. However, I suggest that in this case you
allow your self interest to take precedence over your
own dogma. Again, spend some time in Kanata to see how
successful this can be.

Paul
