Grannie Ria has long been tirelessly active in many community, church, and global causes, and brings a lot of inspiration, experience, and enthusiasm to our gaggle.  Ria's page will no doubt reflect many interests, but the topic that really makes her Rage! these days is the issue of Policing of Protesters.  In her own words:

"The notion that the police claim their pro-active actions kept the Ottawa G8 Protests under control really makes me furious. And this while activist groups let police in on their plans and  made it very clear that we had NO INTENTION for violent actions whatsoever. As if we are a bunch of uninformed, aggressive, dumb troublemakers!!! Sorry, I cannot find the right words to describe my frustration."
