This is not a peaceful, rational, civilized, acceptable form of protest:
GATINEAU, Que. (CP) - Two Wal-Mart outlets in this city received bomb threats on Friday, forcing employees and customers to leave both stores, police said.One of the stores later reopened after police conducted a thorough search, said Sgt. Andre Pellerin of Gatineau police. Pellerin said the calls came within about 20 minutes of each other.
The threats came a few days after the U.S. retail giant announced plans to close a unionized Quebec store in Saguenay, where employees were trying to negotiate a first contract.
