Canucks?

[Leftist Spider]

Hello! I just found this board, and I must say, wow! It's amazing!!!!! :biggrin:

By the way, I'm Dan - a Queer guy in Toronto. ;)

So yes, I am a Canuck. Well, in fact, I was born in England, am half-British half-Armenian, and lived most of my life in Lebanon. I moved to Toronto 2 years ago. :cheesy:

I'm a university student. I'm 20, and am majoring in English Literature (was previously majoring in Computer Science). I'm an anti-war, anti-racism, an anti-capitalism activist.

So anyone from this board in Canada (or more specifically in Toronto)?

I am also part of a movement against police brutality. So if there are any cops who are from Toronto in here (which I highly doubt), please drop me a line, I would love to talk with you and ask you some questions!

Otherwise, if you wanna chat with me anyway, just drop me a line or add me on MSN: [email protected] :D

Peace,

Dan (the Leftist Spider) :)

Before I came here, I was living in Kfarhbab, just above Jounieh ;) Most of my childhood was spent between Jbeil and Montreal though.
Man you just reminded me of Achrafieh where I usually spent saturday nights at Monot street and all its pubs, that was fucking awesome shit man! I miss it :(

School... I was studying in a nuns school called Soeurs des Saints Coeurs Kfarhbab till I graduated with a French baccalaureat, what about you?

Cool! I'm an international student
I'm seriously trying to get a good degree here, mostly in economics and politics, as I plan to return to Lebanon some day and make some sort of reform to the shitty existing system! Yep Lebanon needs a revolution and I want to be part of it anyway I can...

Hehe likewise mate ;)
You'll soon meet Irish lads, English, Americans, Canadians, French, Africans, Koreans, Argentinians, Venezuelans, Russians and many many more people coming from all around the globe. I am definitely honored to be part of this community.. It's universal and it kicks ass!

yalla ciao;)

I used to attend Armenian Evengelical Central High School in Achrafieh - until 9th grade. Then I changed school, and started attending Tarouhy-Hovagimian Secondary School (Armenian school too) in Sin El Fil. I got my Lebanese Baccalaureate in 2001. ;)

Well, I'm not too sure if I want to go back to Lebanon permanently. It's all cos I'm Queer - not too much acceptance there... But, I would love to be a visiting revolutionary. :biggrin: Maybe living there for a period of a coupla months and switching back to Toronto. :)

I love Lebanon - but I hate its politics. Everyone's after their own agendas and fulfilling their own hunger and filling their own pockets... And yes, I want to see the system changed! Maybe I can join you? I will be done with university in 2 years. And adding 3 more years to that for my citizenship (nshalla!) I will be a Canadian citizen, and then I can do whatever I want to! :biggrin: LOL. Am I looking too far into the future at this point? ;)

Yep, people from all walks of life. All races, nationalities, sexualities, etc. It's the coolest thing ever! To be brothers and sisters, yet so far away! Brothers and sisters in revolution!!!!! :biggrin:

Long live revolution!!!!!!

Take care! Talk to ya later!

Peace,

Dan (the Leftist Spider)
