Ottawa Bank Firebomber Convicted - Sentenced To 3 1/2 Years In Jail
"A retired civil servant who firebombed a Royal Bank branch in Ottawa's Glebe neighbourhood last May was sentenced to three and a half years in prison. Roger Clement, 58, plead guilty last month to arson causing damage and mischief in the May 18 firebombing of the Bank Street bank branch. Clement said during his sentencing hearing on Monday that the firebombing was a protest against the bank's connections to the Alberta oilsands and the Vancouver Olympics."

Wow, all capitals, strong feelings. Now if only Western capitalism (to say nothing of the banking system) wasn't predicated on a whole system of legitimized violence. Western capitalist governments condemning violence is like the KKK condemning racism.
