I know who Maher Arar is--he's the dude who got major coin from the government to compensate him for a torture ordeal in Syria. I have no idea, though, who Velcrow Ripper is. I just like saying his name--Velcrow Ripper, Velcrow Ripper, Velcrow Ripper...
Update: "He currently lives on Toronto Island." Figures.
Enjoy.

He's a "spiritual activist" who knows about "lateral synergy."
