Ninja Man in Canada after 21 years
 Dressed in all white, Ninja Man took his seat at the front of the conference centre, appearing relaxed, and focused on discussing the One Umbrella Movement and its' organization, which promotes non-violence, especially amongst the youth.
"There is no one better than me to head this movement. Bounty can't do it; Beenie Man can't do it. Only a man like me who has lived the life I've lived can be a role model to these youths, and telling them that if they go the path of drugs, they will end up like this, or if they take up a gun, they will end up like that. I've been down that road, which everyone knows, and it's time for me to take up this cause to save the youths from a life that's not good. I know; I've been there as everybody knows. The only two other man who could do this is Josie Whales, or Super Cat. We know that violence will never be eliminated, but we can at least bring violence down, and I am going to do it"! So said Ninja Man when asked how his life's experience has prepared him for this role
It's been 21 years since Ninja Man has touched Canadian soil, but this past weekend put that two decade absence to an end as Ninja Man, escorted by his wife, held a press conference at York University promoting the One Umbrella Movement founded by the Don Gargon himself.
"The press conference is being held to let the people know that after 21 years, Ninja Man is able to travel to Canada and also to spread awareness for the One Umbrella Movement" said Fabian 'Fabo' Hanson of Vibes Entertainment, who is responsible for obtaining Ninja Man's travel documents to Canada, as well as the United States. Fabo, long time business man, promoter and immigration consultant, has been chosen by Ninja to head the Canadian chapter of the One Umbrella Movement. The One Umbrella Movement was officially launched in Jamaica December, of 2007.
Ninja Man extended the invitation to community leaders and non-leaders urging everyone to play an important role. "A leader may be in a position to donate things we need, which is good. A non leader might only be able to negotiate peace between two youths warring; we still need him too". Ninja made it clear that he is the overall head of the organization, including chapters in other countries as he seriously joked with conference attendees when saying "Ah me run di program no matta which part ah di world me ah deal wid. Dem haffi do weh me tell dem fi do"!
Ninja Man, in association with Vibes Entertainment, will hold a concert on August 15th, 2008 in Toronto at The Kool Haus 132 Queen Quay East.

Desmond, you know that it wasn't money that attracted me to you. It was when you took off your Clarke's boot and gave it to a youth up at Log Wood Park in Constant Spring.
Big heart!!! Just keep strong!!! You don't need anyone to tell you not to do drugs again. You know that within you lies the power to conquer all temptations.
You command a respect that will let people listen to you.
Love
The Sky's the Limit

Ninja, I know you have a clean and has seen how you deal with people especially those around you. It takes a man to confront his demon and to acknowledge right from wrong. I lift my hat to you. With God by your side and a strong inspiring wife as Wendy, your hopes and dream for Under One Umbrella will certainly become a reality. Nuff love and respect!
