The newest addition to Saskatchewan's growing alternative media family was welcomed into the world on Friday night. Promising 'news with bite,' Sasquatch's pages prove that journalism has a life outside of failing media monopolies. Indepth reporting on the housing crisis and nuclear power were featured in the first print edition.
The launch party, held at Regina's Sask Film Pool Co-Op featured live music, a deejay and tables groaning with snacks. It's been reported a genuine Sasquatch crashed through the party at midnight. This reporter was home in bed by then, but I did capture photographic proof of actual local new stories, something that has become nearly as rare in Canada.
Sasquatch's independent journalism relies on its readers, so consider donating and subscribing. The online edition lives at http://www.sasquatchnews.com/.

How to freak out a Burmese general |

 Did you know that Burma’s
generals are highly superstitious? And that they are deathly afraid of women’s
undergarments? They believe contact with women’s clothing worn below the waist,
especially panties, will erode their power. The women of Burma know this,
and that’s why they started mailing their panties to the regime beginning in
October. And now they’re asking sisters around the world to do the
same.
These men are afraid of your undies. Lanna Action image.

Fourteen students and workers have been charged in connection with a
peaceful sit-in at the University of Toronto over rising tuition fees and they need our help. The
"Fight Fees 14" have been charged with extremely serious offences,
including forcible confinement. The university administration is also contemplating expelling 12 students.
Meanwhile, the campus community
- including many members of CUPE - is subjected to a campaign of intimidation
by the U of T’s administration and police. The university itself is
publicly lobbying to deregulate tuition fees. The U of T Fight Fees 14
have asked CUPE for help fighting the disciplinary proceedings and criminal
charges.
