I am the 99% and I have nothing to complain about. Canada is awesome and full of opportunity. If you don't like the banks don't give them your money! Average income pays what 10K a year in taxes? Isn't that pretty reasonable for the amount of services and infrastructure that's provided? Be happy with the luxurious lifestyle this country provides you and quit whining. Look around the World where would you rather be?

@SuperGil420 No climate change? Wasn't CIBC (a Canadian bank) involved in the bad financial transactions that crashed the global economy? No Canadian company (SNC-Lavalin) building prisons in Libya? Everything is fine rights? Perhaps you might want to look around and do some research? Fortunately, thousands of Canadians and people all around the world disagree with the "I'm alright Jack so who cares" approach to politics and social responsibility. With all due respect of course.

@SuperGil420 I tried to click on your channel. YouTube says it is "unavailable". Are you another Conservative troll, paid for with those taxes you mentioned? Who are you? Do you even exist? Or are you just on the Tory payroll spreading antagonism and hate on the Internet?

the super rich have always controlled the resources, they always will. and the politicians are on the take. ten thousand people at a rally in toronto won't change shit. this so called protest will end in 2 weeks, at least in canada.

@lobelia2 I went to look at your channel but YouTube says it is "not available" like other conservative trolls and operatives. Your pessimism is meant to deflate morale in the spirit of ruining movements. That won't work with a global movement and an economic crisis as severe as this...

Thank you for joining us Canada

[TVACdotCA]

@youratm The whole world is mobilizing. This is bigger than any of us, and involves all of us. Thank you.

I have been waiting for this for so long.

Solidarity to all.

I think YouTube is censoring the comments that get posted here - my guess is to discredit the movement. I see a disclaimer "comment pending approval" usually comments are posted immediately but I still don't see my initial reply.

@lobelia2 more than 4 weeks have past and the movement is still growing, so much for ending in 2 weeks

@SuperGil420 I'm glad you're living well. If you consider your lifestyle 'luxurious' then that's even better for you. I'm from Toronto myself and have no plans on moving. This is a little beside the point however. This system has failed so many for so long. Check out these documentaries: A century of self, Zeitgeist moving forward. When you start to empathize a little more with what people are going through...When you're a little more informed...Then you'll be Super for real ! ;-)

@lobelia2 it's been three weeks.
