What we need to say is not 'what was the use of all the protests' but now that they are over, and we know that it was a lot of hell for a symbolic gathering, what are we going to do to continue builing alternatives to the capitalist system, and to strengthen are community initiatives and solidarity.

April 23, 2001 (Quebec legal)-Activists jailed during the FTAA protests in Quebec City are using various tactics to be in solidarity.

The fact that NTV is a mouthpiece for neo-liberalism is hardly arguable; it is glaringly obvious.

However I am finding it extremely hard to read because of the particular

be able to read it easier and would appreciate the utility more.
Thank you.
