Canada: Anarchists Sabotage Bank
[Submitted by anon on Sun, 2009-01-25 to anarchistnews.org]
On the 19th of January we sabotaged a Scotiabank location in Canada. We inserted glue and pins into two of the locks and poured glue over the keypads of the ATM machines and glued the cardslots after inserting homemade blank plastic cards. Scotiabank is a sponsor of the Security & Prosperity Partnership(SPP) which will be ratified in the year 2010 along with two other Capitalist Spectaclesthe G8 meetings & Olympic games taking place the same year.
The present/future they seek for us is one of complete social control through the use of “intelligent surveillance systems”, “biometric technoligies”, and hyper militarized borders. The city streets/buses/subways/work places are always under the watchful eye of the state/cops/bosses. This prison society we live in is not so different than the warehouses of cheap labour millions of people have been forced into across North Americas prison systems.
We would like to take this opportunity to express our most heartfelt solidarity with all those fighting this poisonous system and to make a proposal that we use the lead up year to these events as an opportunity to inspire a renewal and intensity of actions that we saw throughout Canada the last two years. It’s not that we think excuses for action are necessary considering the state of things but a coordinated year of creative & diverse actions could be a powerful expression of our collective anger and desires for a brighter future. We hope this call reaches you in good spirits and look forward to your responses.
Never let the fuckers rest!

Confrontation 
canada is a pretty big place, what’s the purpose of claiming an action but not indicating the town/city in which it occurred?
the police will know which city, but other militants won’t… if targets are hit repeatedly, police will set up surveillance. if other militants don’t know which targets are being hit, they could walk into a trap…
just one reason why people carrying out actions and posting them should be more thorough in their reports.
