April 12, 2011, 9:55 a.m.
Le groupe de travail « Surveillance du SCRS » du Réseau de la Commission Populaire a pour but de démasquer et de dénoncer le Service canadien de renseignement de sécurité (SCRS). Nous nous pencherons sur les pouvoirs du SCRS, sur son mandat, ses nombreux abus (tels que son rôle dans la sous-traitance de la torture et son utilisation dâinformations obtenues par la torture), le rôle quâil joue en collectant de lâinformation pour dâautres agences de renseignement, ainsi que sur les intérêts politiques et économiques quâil sert (incluant ceux dâautres Ãtats). Surtout, nous explorerons les façons dont les mouvements peuvent maintenir une solidarité et une unité face au ciblage du SCRS, plus spécifiquement grâce à une non-coopération effective avec le SCRS et les autres agences gouvernementales. Ce groupe de travail du Réseau de la Commission Populaire met lâaccent sur les méthodes de profilage racial du SCRS et sur les moyens dont il se sert pour tenter de décourager la dissidence, surtout auprès des jeunes. Nous discuterons des moyens à notre disposition pour informer de manière efficace les communautés et les individus sur les façons dâagir face au harcèlement du SCRS et contester son impunité. Et ce, dans le cadre du travail quotidien dâorganisation pour la justice sociale.
Listes noires, mise-à-l'index et Loi antiterroriste
April 12, 2011, 9:47 a.m.
Lâun des mécanismes les plus largement utilisés par les Ãtats et les agences gouvernementales dans le cadre de leur politique de sécurité nationale est la création de diverses listes noires : listes de groupes et dâindividus terroristes, listes dâinterdiction de vol, listes de personnes « suspectes », la liste 1267 de lâONU, etc. Par ces listes, un grand nombre de groupes et dâindividus se retrouvent pris dans le filet des mesures répressives des Ãtats et les médias de masse ont, pour la plupart, accepté sans broncher ces listes comme étant légitimes. Des personnes sont emprisonnées, des biens et avoirs sont saisiset des mouvements politiques sont amputés et forcés à la clandestinité au Canada et ailleurs. En réponse aux effets répressifs des listes sur les individus, les communautés et les mouvements sociaux, élaborent des stratégies pour confronter le processus politique par lâentremise duquel des groupes et des individus sont placés sur ces listes, particulièrement en vertu de la loi antiterroriste canadienne. En solidarité avec ceux et celles dont les vies ont été ruinées ou dont les mouvements ont été marginalisés en raison dâune mise à lâindex, nous développerons des stratégies pour sâopposer aux listes noires, telles la liste des « entités terroristes » du Canada ou la liste 1267 du Conseil de sécurité de lâONU.

Filling Those Giant Shoes Again...

So... after filling in for the Haberdasher I'd been on the air for quite a while and I think I got a bit punchy.

Highlights include the announcement of Herschel Stratego's upcoming performance on Mother's Milk (May 2nd!), a lot of rambling, and an epic search for the wrong song. Also, great tunes.
