12:22am, Mar 19 - +1 (77*) ***-****: Was waiting for the lights to turn green at a pedestrian crossing here in Vancouver on West Georgia and Granville Street when I turned and standing right next to me was Thomas Mulcair, the leader of the oppostion party of Canada, the NDP (New Democratic Party)
He had with him a guy in his early twenties, in jeans, just the two of them among a throng of people waiting to Cross to the other side of Road..
Among all these people nobody seemed to bother or care about him, someone who is well known and is in the news daily in the multitude of media we have here.
I said "Mr Mulcair" and he smiled and extended his hand. We shook hands and the I said . "Lets have a picture together". I handed the young man with him my Samsung phone and we posed for photos among the throng of passersby..
Later after Thomas Mulcair had walked off down the busy sidewalk I thought to myself.. This could not happen in Zimbabwe.. If the hated tyrant Mugabe dared to walk the street on his own the people would tear him to mince meat....
Strange how lies to the international media how people love him when he travels with a battalion of bodyguards to protect him from the righteous anger of an enslaved Zimbabwean population who have known nothing but.. murder.. disappearances.. torture.. starvation. hunger mass migration. oppression and violent dictatorship in his 35 years of misrule..
