When the artist said that he'd been spying on by hidden microphones and cameras.
They dismissed as an impossible and crazy idea. And yet they still brazenly stealing intellectual property from the artist. The whole world knew about it since he'd asked the world to put surveillance on him.
When the artist gives some people from other countries some good advices, he got thanks or appreciation in return. Not with Canadian government! They steal things from the artist and give him back harassment, humiliations and even treat him like a criminal!
Just a small fact for illustration:
When the artist listened to the news from TV alone in his apartment about how hard or almost
impossible for the government and the law enforcers to stop cigarettes smuggling by the natives across the Canadian-US border using speed boat, with the large area of the lake Ontario with all the islands for hiding, the artist inadvertently spurted out:
" CUT THE BLOODY TAX, STUPID! ".
It became the national policy and it did solve the problem. Can Canadian recall some
crook ( I'm not talking about his face! ) in the government claim the credits for himself?
does he dare to dispute the artist's word, since the whole world already knew about it.
What did the artist get in return?
Here is what's happened: a few days after that night, everywhere the artist went, suddenly
the street were lined up with native men and white women walking hand in hand with
uniformed police nearby for protection, laughing at the artist's face as if he were a
red-necked, bigot right-wing nationalist, or a member of the K.K.K! All of those because
he inadvertently gave them the solution for the problem.
They have been trying to instigate the artist into giving them the solution to the unemployment problem. He'd like to help people, but for that, the artist 'd have to give the solution to the government, and they might put him in jail in return!
If it's true that the solution for deficit problem was theirs, then try to solve the
unemployment problem themselves since fighting unemployment is easier than fighting deficit!
Why all these?
They'd made Canada, the best country in the world as they called it,
a living hell for the artist!
If they set up to put him in jail or insane asylum,
He will hunger himself to death,
Since freedom is worth more than life to him,
And only a perfectly sane man can hunger himself to death.

The artist is Van Nguyen
