    If Terry Fox can run across Canada on one leg, I can do it on a bike.

    I have a bike, two legs, a lot of empathy for indigenous people on turtle Island who don't have access to clean drinking water, and two destinations: I'm going to ride from Edmonton, Alberta to Parliament Hill, to request an audience with the prime minister and remind him that the treaties that...

    Travelogue Snowy Ride Through Rogers Pass(Vancouver to Calgary Oct 2024)

    After visiting with friends in Mission, BC my travel partner ditched me, spending the last of his money on a bus ticket home. Probably for the best after he polished off my 15 pack while I was out gathering firewood the previous night. I spent the next day walking and busing into the lower...

    A New Anarchist Vision

    [any mention of Anarchism, really, really pisses off the government, seeing as they watch me so closely these days] Here's my vision and my explanation for such. Let's all agree that modern society works for a vast majority of people. The masses seem to be pretty damn happy whilst subjugated...

    How to make an Anarchist - 101

    Hello everyone, I am the OP of the featured article "Anarchy Newbie..." thread. I think my username back then was "Dontaskme" a relic from TOTSE. I apologize for my last bizarre, rambling post in that thread, I was under severe, severe stress and drinking a lot at the time. I've been around...

    Andrew Miller (aka u/camping_tramp, Andrew Berkmann, Bazarov, Typical Hobo)

    Moniker may have changed from "Typical Hobo". Andrew is a dangerous person; travelers beware. He has a squatters' rights tattoo under his eye and a several other identifiable tattoos (see photos). The picture where his head is shaved is the most recent. He tried to forcibly undress and have...

    Photos Rest In Peace Tyler Pariseau

    Tyler, the king of the road. Ty had a restless spirit that lead him to endlessly travel coast to coast across Canada, busking with his banjo, guitar, mandolin, fiddle, washboard, and a one of a kind, loud, raspy, singing voice. He and his dog Jack made many miles hitchhiking, riding the rails...

    A nice place in Smith's Falls

    Recently ended up in Smith's Falls after hopping an IM that I thought was going straight to Toronto. I wandered into Trinity United Church in town and met some very nice people who offered me a sink-shower and some food/water. The church makes an effort to be welcoming for queer people, and is...

    Question Traveling back and forth between the USA and Canada

    Best place to build an illegal cabin?

    From what I gather, the Northern Territories aren't very good for this. In fact, I just read a story about this guy's cabin being demolished in the Yukon. I've read about people doing this in Northern BC, but that was 20-30 years ago, I imagine attitudes have changed. I've also heard about...
