The system is broken and I appreciate your desire to fix it. However, I hesitate to throw my hat in the ring of any movement, no matter how just their core principles, without first knowing what they aspire to accomplish. What is your end game? I have little interest in a 'military adventurism' style of occupation lacking an exit strategy. A collective voice is a powerful tool if it speaks with purpose. If it's no more than a crowd of noisy people I might as well hang out at the mall.

Hey Wisdom!

We hear this a lot, and we understand peoples hesitant nature towards what seems such a RADICAL movement. However, the origin of the word RADICAL means TO GET TO THE ROOT.  What Occupy Toronto and the current organizers wish to accomplish right now is get to October 15th and see you, your friends, your barber, the cook from the diner down the street, that guy you always see walking home - what his name again? We want to see you talking about the issues. Through talking and than meeting at a General Assembly, which is a horizontal direct democratic process that empowers individuals to GET TO THE ROOT of our problems. Only if you come and participate in Occupy Toronto, will we establish our end game, our goals. We as organizers cannot decide for you, only you! So we hope this has some clarity about what we are trying to accomplish.

Hey I was wondering if you have to make it to the general assembly to take part, I can't make it on the 7th.

Anyone can come and go as they please. The Assembly on the 7th is more organizational to focus on where we are in terms of logistic, media, legal aid, and a large amount of other information as well as ideas. We were hoping to offer talks about our proposed demands, however we have removed that from the table for the Assembly on the 7th. We’ll begin addressing the issues within workgroups and the General Assembly on Oct 15th and onwards!
