The Occupy Wall Street movement got underway worldwide on October 15, including protests across at least 15 Canadian cities. With the largest rally taking place in Toronto, protesters were also gathering in of Calgary, Montreal, Vancouver, Halifax, Fredericton, Moncton, Guelph, Windsor, Kingston, London, Nanaimo, Courtenay, Duncan, Kelowna, Kamloops and Nelson, B.C., Lethbridge, Regina, Winnipeg and Ottawa, according to CBC News.
Though protests turned violent in Rome, in Canada they were peaceful as Saturday afternoon unfolded. The protests took root at Occupy Wall Street, where protesters have held firm for several days. The protests widened around Columbus Day as well.
Meanwhile, as the Canadian Press noted, the movement that began in Canada, with Vancouver-based AdBusters, came full circle.
Aboriginals were on hand for many of the protests, with one of the rallying Occupy Winnipeg posters depicting Métis activist and hero Louis Riel.

  1. Finally, An App That Notifies Your Lawyer... WTF?!

    NEW YORK CITY, New York -- Someone has finally come up with a practical Android app, Voyeurwebbers, if you make enough money to have a personal lawyer or you're participating in the "Occupy (fill in your location of choice)" protests.
    In fact, it was the protests that inspired the app's developers..
    New York developer Quadrant 2 released the "I'm Getting Arrested" Android app, which notifies friends, loved ones and lawyers of an arrest with a single button.
    The app, which the developer said was inspired by the arrest of an "Occupy Wall Street" protester, allows its user to pre-program a custom message to be sent in the case of an arrest and choose who will receive the message.
    The messages are sent by holding a single button for two seconds, said the developer.
    The app, which Quadrant 2 said is "free to the other 99 percent," can also be used for other purposes involving a repeated text message, such as a daily carpool text.
