  [Infoshop News] Fw: OCAP takes 'Gatekeeper' Squat, MP vows conversion to social housing   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
Following the initial melee, the police were forced to back away completely from the squat and people and media were able to flood the occupied building.
After the jail stopped using the buildings in 1974, the Gatekeeper's building was turned into a halfway house for people coming out of the Don, but due to budget cutbacks, it has been abandoned for a number of years.
But in a bizarre twist, Federal Liberal Dennis Mills, MP for the ward in which the squat was taken, suddenly appeared on the scene late in the afternoon.

When I announced to the Pashtun chokidar (gatekeeper) in my flawed Urdu of my intentions to visit a patient, he abruptly informed me in his equally flawed Urdu that visiting hours were three hours off.
After I finally succeeded in getting the reserved Pashtun gatekeeper to talk about his family, tea, upcoming Ramadan holiday, and other small talk, he asked me where I was from.
When I told him the United States, he leaped up, shook my hand, expressed his pleasure in meeting me, and informed me that I was free to enter the hospital.

 village voice > news > The Gatekeeper: Watch on the INS by Alisa Solomon
Dozens of desperate people greeted Erin Corcoran as she made her way to work each morning in Lusaka, Zambia, last spring, where she spent two months interviewing refugees seeking to be taken in by the United States.
Every day, as a UN van transported her to the squat stone building where the UN High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) keeps offices, Corcoran had to repress the dread rising in her stomach as she gazed out at the long line of supplicants who had fled to Zambia from Angola, Congo, and Somalia.
The ideal solution for refugees is, of course, to go home after the threats have subsided, or, failing that, to be absorbed fully into the country they have fled to.

Shortly after the march arrived at 558 Gerrard Street East to open the "Gatekeeper Squat," police attacked the child's mother, violently snatching Saoirse right off of her shoulders.
When the car came to a stop around the corner from the squat, at Broadview and Gerrard, I demanded to be released from the vehicle, since I was not being charged, to take my baby back to his food and essentials.
It was at that stop that I heard the call come across the police radio ordering all officers to withdraw from the premises of 558 Gerrard East since they had no jurisdiction over the property at that point.

One forced the opening of a homeless shelter, another was turned into housing for seniors, another became a squat with 25 residents for over 3 months, and still another forced a politician to sign away his federal seat in the House of Commons!
Just as there are people in Toronto who feast while others starve, people who are buried in material goods while others go without, there are those who horde empty buildings while people sleep on their doorsteps.
We are calling on everyone fed up with waiting for lying governments to come up with concrete change to come out and take action for housing, for dignity, and for justice.

One of the main geometric considerations described in the book is that a squat unitank gave more consistent results than the traditional tall design.
It is assumed that since most to the wort is in the cylinder portion of the fermenter, the small amount of un-chilled wort in the cone will be insignificant.

 You make the call: Reach prospect, or settle for squat - Kansas City Business Journal:   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
Question: When the gatekeeper has to take a message or alerts the person you are trying to call, and they ask: "May I ask what this is regarding?" Would you just say, "Yes, I would like to ask your boss to buy something." What is your angle on this?
My opinion is that once the gatekeeper says, "What's this in reference to?" eight of 10 times the call will not go through.
