CLARIFICATION; LET US START AT THE START: you know I own the land in question, and must owe something to my Title; the only place for me to begin my relationship with you, is at your trespass.
You are doing to me what Olmypic-ness is alleged by you, to be the reason for the Coalition.
I will resolve the problem from my position as the owner, and have the right to lay this information before the Justice of the Peace, who must authorize my arrest warrant against you, for merely your breach of due process of law.
I have the further right to proceed on my own Sovereign authority, and issue your arrest warrant over my Sign, attached to this information, to MY TWO WITNESSES, who are prepared to appear and testify against this abuse of the process of law. Delay and added costs of defending my land from your trespass, are at your expense. The next in the sequence of problems you bring upon yourself by disrespecting my title and the law, is my right to prefer a criminal process and swear this information to the Vancouver City Police, who have reasons to support my actions.
O yeah; I am an experienced trial lawyer lawyer, civil and criminal.
MY WILL IS DONE.

Dear @alissa:
I recommend we refer this to our legal counsel.
Kindly confirm an email address and I will continue.

My Dear Ms. Alissa Westergard-Thorpe:
Let us forgive any past or future misunderstanding between us before proceeding any further.
I have your image from YouTube, which distinguishes you from all the rest of the Coalition, and wI hold the images of Joseph Jones and Harjap, and in Whistler, I have the image and name of Ms Jennings. You do not need my image to recognize my rights, because by the law shown to you in my notices, you are obligated to recognize my Title and to affirm my claim as owner of all the land in this Province. By failing and now refusing to come forward to me following the formal service to you on this very email Network, giving written and certified Notice to you personally, of your duty to me, you indicted yourself as a person who is hostile to to that law, and that entitles me to enforce my possession against you, by due process of law.
So, my peace entitles me to pursue you and end your trespass.You will be arrested and brought before me to answer to the charge and to settle any terms.
ipso facto the rest of your peers.
That is the first item on your warrant.
The second item arises within the Coalition.
I have a few things to disburse to the Coalition under my control. When surrender to the power and authority of Chief Kitsilano (aka jesusjamey), and accept terms of release from that arrest, we can include such Coalition related items and obligations in the undertaking that we affirm between us.
In conclusion, it is incumbent on you to respond to this notice, otherwise your arrest warrant will be processed and executed at my convenience.
This email is private until any grace is given.
You are doing a fine job as far as I see from this Network and the YouTube video. Thank you.
Sincerely,
Chief Kitsilano,

The Coca Cola Case
German Gutierrez and Carmen Garcia / Canada / 2009 / English and Spanish (w/ eng. s.t.)
THE COCA COLA CASE is screening throughout the CP Network between winter and spring 2010 as part of the The Coca Cola Case Film Tour, co-organized with the the NFB. Filmmakers German Gutierrez and Carmen Garcia will be present for a Q&A along with Ray Rogers of the New York-based Stop Killer Coke Campaign.
SYNOPSIS: Colombia is the trade union murder capital of the world. Since 2002, more than 470 workers' leaders have been brutally killed, usually by paramilitaries hired by private companies intent on crushing the unions. Among these unscrupulous corporate brands is the poster boy for American business: Coca-Cola.
Talk to Martin Gil: His brother Isidro was killed at point-blank range while working at the Coca-Cola bottling plant in Carepa, because he was part of a union bargaining unit. Like most violent crimes committed against Colombian union leaders, Gil's murder went unpunished.
However, U.S. lawyers Daniel Kovalik and Terry Collingsworth, as well as activist Ray Rogers, stepped in and launched an ambitious crusade against the behemoth Coca-Cola. In an incredible three-year saga, filmmakers Germán Gutiérrez and Carmen Garcia follow these heroes in a legal game of cat and mouse. From Bogotá to New York, Guatemala to Atlanta, Washington to Canada, The Coca-Cola Case maintains the suspense of a hard-fought struggle.
The lawyers filed several cases at the U.S. federal court against Cola-Cola for murder, abduction and torture committed in Colombia and Guatemala. Thanks to activist Ray Rogers, they also attacked the brand image of the Atlanta-based giant, with the devastating campaign Stop Killer Coke!, causing dozens of U.S. colleges and universities to boycott the drink.
Still the company would not give up. After five years of haggling, will the lawyers get justice? In the end, they reach a settlement of sorts, but what will the victims choose - cash, or power and integrity?

The Coca Cola Case Film Tour
Cinema Politica and the National Film Board of Canada are collaborating to screen THE COCA COLA CASE throughout the Cinema Politica Network at two dozen locations across Canada and abroad at our Sweden, Norway and New Zealand locations.
The tour launches with the January 18th screening at Concordia, then continues across the country. Check the CP page for the tour for more information.
Coca Cola's Legal Letter to Cinema Politica
On January 11th Cinema Politica received a letter from Coke's lawyers intimating possible problems for us if we continued ahead with our plans to screen the film throughout the network. The film has already been shown publicly in Europe, Latin America and North America, the filmmakers have never been contacted by Coke's lawyers, and as far as we know we are in our full rights to screen this important film.
