Come say hello at the Edmonton Anarchist Bookfair silent auction!
The Edmonton Anarchist Bookfair is just three months away, and at the end of July the organizing members of the EABF are holding their silent auction. There’s always awesome stuff to bid for at the annual auction! Come down for the community, the bidding and the free vegan food. We should have our new shirts printed by then and will be auctioning some off.
Read more at the EABF site.

Visit the “Anarchist Gifts” application on Facebook!
Possibly great. Possibly annoying. Possibly trivial. Possibly all three. For better or for worse, we used a little program on Facebook called Gift Creator to make a gift-exchange Facebook add-on, Anarchist Gifts. Now you can exchange little presents of love and solidarity with your fellow addicts (must… get… off… the internet).
Some things, Gift Creator doesn’t let us do. This is supposedly going to be fixed soon. “Unlocking” gifts sucks!
We’re going to plunk a great big catalog of ‘anarchist gifts’ in there eventually so there’s lots of things to send to friends. Anyway, .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address)

Hamilton shows southern Ontario how it’s done
Hamilton had its first Anarchist Bookfair thanks to the good people who work with the Common Cause anarchist organization. Thoughtcrime ink was able to meet lots of great vendors, participants, and fellow organizers who came to partake in this celebration of education, struggle, and solidarity. A huge thanks to all who made our trip to the underdog city both worthwhile and enjoyable!

Do the Edmonton’s People’s Pedal survey, grow a shared bike network
People’s Pedal is an independent, all-volunteer bike mechanic co-operative in Edmonton. They provide cheap bicycle transport in Edmonton through a system of shared bikes and racks around the city, like there are in other European and North American cities. You get access to the bike system by buying a dirt cheap membership (or volunteering some hours) and get to borrow bikes whenever you want, for a few hours at a time.
They are looking for people who live in Edmonton to answer an on-line survey to get some feedback on the best way to expand and improve the bike sharing system. It takes about 10 minutes to do, and you can even win a free years’ membership! (Your odds are pretty good, too — word from the designer.)
