We’ve been light on the ACAB content lately, so we decided to make up for it. The Windsor Police have a new, very expensive, toy to oppress the poor with; they also are still being dumb about the whole Naloxone thing; we give an update on 1492 Landback Lane in Caledonia and the OPP’s brutal violence towards the Haudenosaunee people; then we shout out Bolivia for being bomb af.
