I commend you on your struggle!

Thank God you were able to save it! We here in Sydney, Nova Scotia are also fighting to save a theatre called The Vogue, a smaller theatre in the downtown core which has been bought (or nearly so) by a businessman who owns half of Sydney, and he wants to doze it and build an office building!

If anyone can also help with this, come to Facebook and look for the Save the Vogue group and/or visit savethevogue.ca

Not a plug, but a common thread. Let's keep these heritage movie houses open!

Brunswick Theatre

Mentioned briefly in the article, Scott Gilbert and Bre Walt's cinema in the Poor Alex Theatre off of Bloor Street West in Toronto, called the Brunswick theatre www.brunswicktheatre.ca is moving locations due to high cost.

They are touring Southern Ontario showing films before re-opening in a new location.

Independent newspapers such as The Dominion are vital if democracy and true citizenship are to be saved in this age of awful concentration of corporate medias bent on formatting our opinion to serve the powerful interests which control such media. We as Haitians are especially grateful to independent media for having helped disentangle the web of lies in which the corporate media are still trying to smother our struggle for freedom and self-determination.

--Patrick Elie, founder of SOS Haiti and former Secretary of State for National Defense in Haiti

About the Dominion

The Dominion is a monthly paper published by an incipient network of independent journalists in Canada. It aims to provide accurate, critical coverage that is accountable to its readers and the subjects it tackles. Taking its name from Canada's official status as both a colony and a colonial force, the Dominion examines politics, culture and daily life with a view to understanding the exercise of power.
