An American pharmaceutical corporation is suing Canadian taxpayers for $500 million.

Why? Because the Canadian government rejected their patent applications, thus making more affordable versions of their medication available.

However, the Trans-Pacific Partnership will extend patents, allowing corporations to keep drug prices higher for longer.

We need to make sure Canada does not pass the TPP through Parliament.

Shit Harper Did triggered alarms after they peacefully mounted a banner and giant eyeballs at a CSEC site to protest government spying, among many things.

On November 27 security guards at the construction site for the new $1.2 billion headquarters for the Communications Security Establishment Canada (CSEC) confronted a group of young people who successfully hung a 24ft banner reading "I SPY A WASTE OF MONEY."

Multiple security guards informed the comedians that they were on private property and that alarms in the facility had been triggered by their presence. The guards proceeded to film the activists, who responded by filming the guards and staring at them with two 3ft eyeballs.
