Bank Firebombed In Canada, Anarchist Group Claims Responsibility (19th May 2010)

An anarchist group is claiming responsibility for firebombing a bank in Ottawa, Canada on Tuesday, the 19th of May 2010, and warns of more violence planned for the upcoming G8 and G20 summits. The following statement was posted by the group on an independent media website: Direct Action in Ottawa The Vancouver Olympic games are over, but a torch is still burning. Royal Bank Canada was a major sponsor of the recently concluded 2010 Olympics on stolen indigenous land. This land was never legally ceded to colonial British Columbia. This hasnt stopped the government from assuming full ownership of the land and its resources for the benefit of its corporate masters and to the detriment of aboriginal peoples, workers and the poor of the province. The 2010 Winter Olympics increased the homelessness crisis in Vancouver, especially the Downtown Eastside, Kanadas poorest urban area. Since the Olympics bid, homelessness in Vancouver has nearly tripled while condominium development in the Downtown Eastside is outpacing social housing by a rate of 3:1. The further criminalization and displacement of those living in extreme poverty continues apace. "Royal Bank Canada is one of the planets greenest companies according to one of its own brochures. Coporate Kanada saw fit to include RBC as one of the top 50 in a competition dubbed Canadas Greenest Employers, which purports to recognize organizations that have created a culture of environmental awareness. Yet RBC is now the major financier of Albertas tar sands, one of the largest industrial projects in human history and perhaps the most destructive. The tar sands, now the cause of the second fastest rate of deforestation on the planet, are slated to expand several times its current size. The games in Vancouver are now over, but resistance continues. An RBC branch can be found in every corner of Kanada. On June 25-27 2010, the G8/G20 leaders and bankers are meeting in Huntsville and Toronto to make decisions that will further their policies of exploitation of people and the environment. We will be there. We pass the torch to all those who would resist the trampling of native rights, of the rights of us all, and resist the ongoing destruction of our planet. We say: The Fire This Time. FFFC - Ottawa at the corner of Bank Street and First Avenue. (posted at http://ottawa.indymedia.org/en/2010/05/11233.shtml)
