Subject: Fwd: Globe poll on forced medication!
I am passing this on to people who might want to vote on this. It is about forcing drugging and right now, the majority is going toward agreeing to forced drugging. Angela: Could you pass this on to any feminist lists that you have. Thanks. And Tanya, could you pass this onto to disability lists that you know? Thanks too. Frightening that the Globe is taking such a poll.
Please vote NO asap! I suspect there's a media campaign promoting forced
drugging organized by Big Pharma and biological psychiatrists in Canada and
the US. So far, The Globe & Mail poll favors forced drugging - 6000+ out of
11,000+ voted yes so far. More evidence (as if we needed it) the G & MN,
like all other corporate-controlled mainstream media, biopsychiatry and Big
Pharma, support psychiatric assault. (comments below)
Please snowball this far-and-wide asap, be sure to vote NO

thanks
Don
Thanks for the heads-up. This is disgusting!
There are also no fewer than three separate stories on the Toronto Sun's
website related to the same theme. http://www.torontosun.com/. For once the
Toronto Star (normally one of the worst offenders on this subject) seems to
have taken a pass, although I've only looked at the website, not the print
edition of the paper.
The Globe poll currently stands at 3147 yea, 2402 nay, which suggests the
psychopharmaceutical con job coupled with the 'violent mental patient'
mythology is still holding strong.
