I had to laugh at their banner because it needs critiquing:

Homelessness - already present before the Olympics; self induced by the lack of interest, or pure laziness, to acquire intimate skills for labor application.

Ecological Destruction - Already an existing practice through deforestation. Also, deforestation is environmental degradation (since it rejuvenates), not destruction.

Police State - that is a shot at the moon considering how low our labor force is in enforcement.

Corporate Invasion - already happened during the Colonial Mercantile days of the 1650s+, intensified through globalization back in the 1990s.

Colonization - already happened, which is why those protesters are here, now.

Public Debt - already a crumbling problem, especially as the immense amount of social payments and benefits to the First Nations on reserves has intensified the debt.
