War artist destroys works as protest against Tories - Politics

A renowned Canadian war artist is destroying five pieces of his own artwork — including one he shredded live on CBC’s Power & Politics — to protest the federal government's treatment of veterans and aboriginals, as well as for what he calls an "abuse" of parliamentary power. "And so there are four to go," an emotional Allan Harding MacKay told host Evan Solomon after ripping up a piece depicting a scene from Kandahar Air Field. MacKay plans to destroy four more pieces on Parliament Hill on Thursday and says he hopes his act will help more people "wake up" to how the government is doing business. http://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/story/2012/05/08/pol-war-artist-protest.html
