Ah Ouais! On avance!
A personal account of the august 25th Critical Mass Bike Parade
By Charlieo

As usual, there were fifty or sixty cyclists gathered at Phillips Square for our monthly celebration. It was bright and sunny, which suited our beach party theme somethin' lovely. I parked my bike, custom-fitted with
my ficus plant, Frank, roped to the handle bars. Said hi to some friends, smoked a smoke, and then walked around to say hi to everyone else. I had a stack of cards produced by the Pivot Legal Society (www.pivotlegal.org) and Equity Access (www.legaloutreach.mcgill.ca) to give out to everybody. These include a statement for the police, and a brief explanation of our basic rights as citizens, just in case!

My grandfather, U.S. Army Col. Edwin Joseph McAllister, was born in Battle Creek in 1895. He does not know that his first grandchild is an international expert on depleted uranium. I have worked in two U.S. nuclear weapons laboratories, and in 1991 I became a whistleblower at the Livermore lab. Depleted uranium is very, very, very nasty stuff:

En 1998, 37 % des foyers québécois étaient munis d’ordinateurs , ce chiffre s’élevait à 68 % en 2003 , soit le double en seulement 5 ans. Les progrès rapides liés aux nouvelles technologies de l’information entraînent une baisse des coûts de production du matériel informatique, une accélération exponentielle de la désuétude dudit matériel ainsi qu’une saturation du marché local de l’usager. En 1997, la durée de vie moyenne d’un appareil au Canada était de 3,5 ans . La tendance mondiale en 2004 était de 2 à 3 ans .

The idea that nuclear energy is carbon neutral goes uncontested in the media and general public. What can we make of this collective denial?

The following article was written in New Internationalist Magazine (382). It shows that the construction and decommissioning of a nuclear power station and is far more carbon intensive than coal or gas.

A powerful indictment of commercial nuclear power and why its use must end.

[Uranium weapons are being used in Lebanon which means it is a NUCLEAR WAR! These weapons are extremely poisoness and deadly........along with being illegal by all conventions and treaties. These so-called "depleted" uranium weapons are actually not depleted, and their use constitutes a war crime.]

Hace algunos días atrás, nos informaron que "En la hora cero Bush ahogándose queriendo un negocio de 4.5 billones de dólares para mejorar la economía estadounidense", y que billones de dinero repatriado deberían urgentemente regresar a su país (www.arcticbeacon.com/1-Aug-2006.html).

Al mismo tiempo aprendíamos que en los EE.UU. no queda "ni un sólo equipo de combate del ejército para desplegarse" y que "más que dos tercios de las 34 brigadas de la Guardia Nacional no están listos para el combate, principalmente a causa de escasez de materiales, cuya rectificación costará hasta 21 mil millones de dólares..."
