Subject: RE: BS: Is Canada a dictatorship?
Ironically Jacques Lanctot started a book publishing company after his 3 year prison term.... and rec'd grants from the Canada Council..

damn, I must be doing something wrong... but it reminds me of a song I wrote after my 3rd rejection by that institution...

(Now That the Buffalo are Back)

"A Franco-Aboriginal porno queen doing time in a federal pen
Writes a book, gets a Council grant and an early release again"....

but I did have fun with lawyer Robert Lemieux way back after the dust settled on les evenements d'Octobre.. he introduced Ville Emard Blues Band on our live LP at the St-Denis Theatre... he went on for 20 minutes, but we edited him down to about one or so !
