HUMAN rights alert!

Doug -The Dew”

Collins ts alive and in sour
face and set toe open the
bamb-bay doors on another
incendiary load of dangerous
opinion.

You can’t keep a good
ink-stained wretch down. 1
guess - even after he has
been drayged betore the BC
Press Council, prodded and
poked by the BC Human
Rights brigade and vilitied by
every left-leaning fanatic and
sott-handed media type
across the Land.

No, sir.

This Collins guv nas an
external coating of some-
thing they don’t make any-
more. Heavy-duty chino
hide, perhaps, something
impervious to the buckshot
and shrapnel of the mud-
slinging trade.

His latest project to poke
sticks at the status quo and
frighten the children is
another compilation of his
North Shore News
calumins.

His first collection, the
Best aud Worst of Dena
Collins, was published in
1987 by North Vancoaver’s
Whitecap Books.

It was a hardcover
grenade lobbed into the
complacent sott-
centre of
Canadiana.

Best and
Worse columns
gathered from
the Collins 1984
to 1987 News
era bore such
headers as: Let's
all get AIDS;
Blockheads and
Blowhards; the
Ministry for
Turban Affairs;
and Women and

Weeping.

going aloud. The human
rights police might be listen-
ing.

The initial print run of
8,000 hardcover copies sold
out in short order — a trib-
ute to the salability of rough
love Collins stvle.

It also confirmed the soli-
darity of the Collins follow-
ing — the same following
that helped contribute so
generously to the North
Shore News’ free speech
defence fund and helped the
News and Collins in the
ongoing battle against gov-
emment-backed thought and
opinion suppression.

The latest Collins book,

No publisher either,

Collins has chosen to self
publish hrs latest project.

The vanity press ts an
expensive gamble at the best
of times,

It is also tty many cases
the last resort of the trustrat
ed author whe might have
more money than went.
