Eleftherios Anghelopoulos Ambassador, Embassy of the Hellenic Republic of Greece, 80 MacLaren St. Ottawa, Ontario, K2P 0K6 By Fax : (613)-2385676 ( tel:%28613%29-2385676 ) & E-mail : [email protected] Dear Ambassador Anghelopoulos: On behalf of Canada’s most established free speech advocacy group, I must protest your government’s action last week in arresting a number of the elected members of Golden Dawn, on what seem like exceedingly vague charges. Some man with tenuous connections to Golden Dawn killed an anti-racist rapper. There seems to evidence that the MPs ordered the killing of this relative nobody. The arrests smack of persecution and unworthy efforts to disrupt a duly elected political party. I understand Greece in under strong Zionist pressure to outlaw Golden Dawn. Greece is the cradle of Western democracy. Even the term democracy is Greek in origin. I hope that your government will reconsider and practise real democracy which lets a variety of political ideas or ideologies compete in the marketplace of ideas and at the ballot box. Let the voters decide. Sincerely yours, Paul Fromm Director _____________________________ Unsubscribe / Change Profile: http://ymlp293.net/ugmjhqsqgsgbbqgussygguewwmw Powered by YourMailingListProvider

As a taxpayer, let me tell you what I expect from the Toronto Fire Services. I expect brave, trained, competent firemen to respond quickly and professionally to emergencies, especially fires, to which they might be called. What they do on their own time is no concern of mine. If they drink too much, act rowdy, tell crude jokes, that’s their business. I expect them to be professional, fit and competent on the job. Their salary should pay for their dedication on the job; it should not necessarily buy us a saint off the job. That brings me to recent disturbing press reports about your decision to first suspend and then fire three of your firemen. According to the Canadian Press of August 22, 2013, you called yourself an "agent of change" trying to correct the "culture" at the Toronto Fire Department. The recent suspension (August 22) and firing three weeks later of three Toronto firemen for sexually insensitive twitter comments on their own cellphones on their own time makes one wonder whether "agent of change" shouldn't be read as "agent of the thought police"? The Toronto Fire Service didn't even have a policy about the use of social media on one's own time, but, hey, fire the outspoken tweeters anyway; they were, in that catch-all of political correctese being "inappropriate". Your action has trampled on these men’s right to freedom of speech. While the comments quoted may have been juvenile and silly, when it comes right down to it, we are paying these men for their courage and competence on the job, not for their social skills or proper attitudes. I hope you will reconsider and rehire these men. Sincerely yours, Paul Fromm _____________________________ Unsubscribe / Change Profile: http://ymlp249.net/ugmjhqsqgsgbbqgussqgguewwmw Powered by YourMailingListProvider

If you're seeing this version, your email program prefers plain text emails. You can read the original version online: http://ymlp249.net/zNCaLx -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From Canadian Political Prisoner, Brad Love Brad Love, a decade after his conviction under Canada's notorious "hate law" (Sec. 319 of the Criminal Code) for writing non-threatening letters to public officials criticizing Canada's immigration mess, is still mired in the toils of repression. In July 2012, for sending some information packages to some Toronto Jewish groups, he was sentenced to a further 18 months in prison, plus a further three year gag order from writing letters to the media or politicians. He applied for bail; pending an appeal. In July, 2013, this bail was arbitrarily revoked. So, for the past three months, he's languished in jail, again for nothing more than the non-violent expression of his populist, no nonsense working guy views,. Brad was employed in a lucrative job in Alberta's tar sands in Fort McMurray. The arbitrary imprisonment punishes him for his views, denies him an income and, ironically, denies the state a hefty junk of his pay in taxes. Why not drop him a line or post card of support. He'll write back: Brad Love [557137416] C.E.C.C., 541 Highway 36, Box 4500, Lindsay, ON., K9V 4S6 Here's the latest. Peter Lindsay, my lawyer,. will have my appeal heard in Nov. That's all I know. He is also working on retrieving my $22,000 in cash bail. Otherwise my once productive life is at a standstill. In Free Seech News, we read of the following: *** My hometown of Ft. Mac which ain't the bastion of western outspokeness, we were led to believe, radio station Rock 97.9 banned Neil Young, who compared oil sands development to Hiroshima. _____________________________ Unsubscribe / Change Profile: http://ymlp249.net/ugmjhqsqgsgbbqgussugguewwmw Powered by YourMailingListProvider
