Boycott strategy
TaxFree15.com has a great strategy for those of us who care about loss of rights and freedoms – including the destruction of innocent people through war and torture. This site is American, but I think the same ideas could be adapted to Canada.
Quoting from the site:
WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BE A “PATRIOT?”
1. a person who loves, supports, and defends his or her country and its interests with devotion.
2. a person who regards himself or herself as a defender, esp. of individual rights, against presumed interference by the federal government……..no longer presumed!
And the strategy is this, starting on the 15th of each month, April 15-18 for example:
1) NO WORK, NO SCHOOL
* Our future depends on restoring our rights. Plan ahead, ask for time off, use vacation days or whatever it takes. Get school assignments for your children, who will able to learn about our Constitution through online programs. IF YOU FEEL YOU MUST GO TO WORK, THEN GO! PARTICIPATE IN THE OTHER STEPS. DO WHAT YOU CAN!! LEARN ABOUT THE ARTICLES OF FREEDOM & OUR CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS! – IT’S A MONEY GAME – THEY WANT OURS, TIME TO CHANGE THE RULES.
2) NO SHOPPING – DON’T BUY
* DON’T BUY ANYTHING FROM LARGE CORPORATIONS, FAST FOOD PLACES, ONLINE STORES, ETC. Again, plan ahead for medications, gasoline, and food. If you have to shop then go to a Mom & Pop! IF EVERYONE KEEPS THEIR MONEY FOR 4 CONSECUTIVE DAYS, OFFSHORE BANKS WILL NOTICE
3) DON’T COMPLY
* TAKE YOUR MONEY & SAVINGS OUT OF LARGE CORPORATE BANKS, OR LEAVE ONLY WHAT YOU NEED TO COVER MONTHLY BILLS. WORK AT GETTING OFF THE GRID AND FORMING CO-OPS WITHIN COMMUNITIES. WE NEED EACH OTHER, AND IT WILL BE OUR NETWORKING ENERGY, AS ONE, WHICH WILL ENSURE SUCCESS!
4) ASK WHY? (THIS IS ESSENTIAL!)
* WHY ARE WE ALLOWING OUR CONSTITUTION TO BE IGNORED?
* WHY DO OUR CHILDREN HAVE TO SACRIFICE FOR BANKING SCAMS?
* WHY ARE WE SUPPORTING POLICIES THAT DON’T SUPPORT US?NOW PICK UP THE PHONE & CALL YOUR “REPRESENTATIVES”, CONGRESSMEN, ETC. LET THEM KNOW YOU’RE PARTICIPATING IN THIS STRIKE, AND ASK QUESTIONS YOU FEEL ARE IMPORTANT.
These things can most definitely work in Canada. The major disadvantage that we currently face is the complete lack of understanding by Canadians of the state of things here. Education is the key.
Government bailouts don’t help our economy. If I’m broke I don’t go further into debt to get out of debt.
Believing that we have some kind of say over the activities of Government, even though there isn’t one single example of it, is a major obstacle that we must overcome by holding these ‘elected’ officials responsible by calling them out.
We must stop playing into the hands of the Socialist Government by continuously acting like we’re incapable of living our own lives and expecting the State to ‘help’ us.
It can be done.
