Re: MAY 4: STATUS FOR ALL! March for immigrant justice in Cote-des-Neiges, MONTREAL (updated info)
This is being sent to folks
at the annual Montreal Anarchist Book Fair who are calling for a
celebration
around the migrationary culture of slaves, whom workerists, if consistent, would call "scabs". I prefer to
call them class unconscious survivalists who are being played for fools against the already-fooled.

Stop the NAFTA-GATT-WTC-NAO de-sovereignization of one of the few remaining secular nation-states.
Open borders neither means open-mindedness nor open-heartedness — only "open pockets" to the rich who
profit off the embedded and the new citizenry, i.e., the combined work-slave force. It's open season!
It would also do you well to recall how the Catholic Church and Mexico opposed the abolition of slavery and
conspired, along with the (wanna-be-reincluded, Church-outcast) Jesuit sect to assassinate Lincoln because
he infringed upon conquistadora-Catholic claimed/ravaged and Mexican government-maintained lands and
slave force. It's payback time from that same upper crust that's found global treasonists to all people as ally.
This is a land-grab by globalists who wish to circumvent any gains by Mexicans and US citizens, and will
bypass any remaining constitutionality in Mexico, Canada, and the USA, forming the post-national North
American Union (NAU), run by a mere five of their own choosing!
Wake up. We're all under attack. You're choosing within a "choiceless choice". It's a planned package deal
wherein resistance cleans up the ass of the globalists' earlier "national experiment" like a good dog. The nation-state
is being shelved along with all trade, border, labor, safety, and health law "inter-nationally" and
accidentally achieved that benefits the global proletariat. It, along with 80% of us are slated for annihilation
so that Ted Turner, Oprah Winfrey, Bill Gates, David Rockefeller, members of the Bilderberger Group, et. al.
can ride the eternity of the epsilonic sub-humanity that's being harvested (with implant tracer chips, unquestioning
button-pushing skills — all managed by biochemical cybernetician-managers and machines) as they see fit….
Work-slaves are under further attack via this well-funded eradication of 'more-than-borders' and access to
a further-impoverished, near-murdered dream of workers in both the USA and in Mexico.
As usual, the "left" embraces the globalist plan-of-attack, and even while the anti-WTC riots in Seattle are still
in memory. These left[-behinds], a.k.a. "the left hand of capital", are such willing tools! Nice recovery or easily-turned
moralists. Always willing to sacrifice others and principles for coin in hand. The trio of Rockefeller funds (Family,
Brothers, Foundation) work in mysterious ways, eh?! The "left", like the co-dependent "right", act as combo
jabs to the proletarian chin EVERY time they're given the opportunity. With friends like them, who's conscious?!
What an anti-worker, pro-work, class UNconscious travesty! The Santayana quote seems appropriate here,
however, "those" who do not learn from their mistakes are the best of slave mentality: bred, bought, bagged.
Regarding the ever-spectacular anti-events of May Day, I'd suggest reading:
"MayDaze: A Thesis on the Celebration of Alienation"

best wishes for dust-free, more-than-two-dimensional thinking and a less "boring-as-fuck" movement,

*STATUS FOR ALL!
A march for immigrant justice,
and against poverty, racism & racial profiling
SUNDAY, MAY 4th, 12:30pm
Starting Point: Corner of Victoria & Van Horne
in COTE-DES-NEIGES
(metro Plamondon, Van Horne exit)
This is a child-friendly demonstration.
Food and drinks will be available.
There will be vehicles on-hand for those with reduced mobility.*
As part of a National Day of Action for immigrant rights, Solidarity Across
Borders is again taking to the streets, with our allies, to demand justice
and dignity for all migrants. In opposition to deportations and detentions,
we demand STATUS FOR ALL! There is no such thing as an "illegal" human
being, only illegitimate laws and governments.
Daily, we resist deportations and detentions, we fight for justice in the
workplace, we demand safe and secure housing, and we oppose racism and
racial profiling. In contrast to the xenophobia promoted by the false
"reasonable accommodation" debate in Quebec, we take to the streets to
celebrate our collective struggles for justice and dignity in all its
diversity and strength.
This year, we march through the streets of Cote-des-Neiges, a predominantly
poor, working class and immigrant neighbourhood. Our march will mark the
culmination of "Mayworks!", a festival of working class and immigrant
culture, organized by the Immigrant Workers Center (IWC). Our march is also
part of the Mayday tradition, as we celebrate the struggles of working
people locally and throughout the world.
Join us — with your friends, family, co-workers and neighbours — on
Sunday, May 4, and add your voice and presence to the growing numbers of
people in Montreal and beyond who are demanding "STATUS FOR ALL!"
