Timeline
By the late 1970s, Hansen was living in Toronto, where she met Brent Taylor.
She then moved to Vancouver and began a relationship with Taylor.
They decided to form a guerrilla organization named Direct Action, with the addition of Doug Stewart, Julie Belmas and Gerry Hannah, local fixtures of Vancouver's punk scene.
The group carried out militant actions which included an attack on a BC Hydro substation on Vancouver Island and the Litton Industries bombing in Toronto.
The Litton Industries site was preparing to build components for US cruise missiles and the explosion played a part in Litton losing the contract.
The group later fire-bombed several Red Hot Video stores in Vancouver which sold hardcore porn.
