Attorney General of British Columbia Wally Oppal spoke out against the group : "It's disturbing when you have people like these, who are continually intimidating law-abiding citizens  and I think the public is getting sick and tired of this group." The group vandalised and broke into Campbell's office in Vancouver last May when they posed as a flower delivery service and quickly ransacked his office breaking windows and throwing pictures, office documents, and various other items . They also threw yellow paint and put posters on the Olympic Clock in downtown Vancouver last April. They believe that poor citizens are losing their homes due to the money spent and developments near the city on preparation for the long-awaited 2010 Winter Olympics.
