Now we know the "occupy" movement is serious. It's reached Montreal.
Protesters are camped out in Square Victoria, our neighborhood subway stop. Although they hadn't yet arrived by 6 AM yesterday — and believe us, for reasons we won't bore you with, we know — as Saturday progressed they arrived by the hundreds.
Well, good on them. We're still sizing up the occupiers. Every now and then on TV, we see one toting a Gadsden flag, which signals "teabagger" to us. But we suspect that by and large, the Occupy Wall Streeters and others are the kind of folks who would not agree with Mitt Romney's assertion that corporations are people.
