On Saturday we went down with a friend to join this group of stalwart demonstrators at Victoria's Clover Point to tell Stephen Harper, Christie Clark and the Enbridge Pipeline people that we say NO.
No pipeline, no tankers, and no expansion of bitumen mining in Canada's tar sands.
Over 1,000 people stood in the cold wind and rain to make this point yet again. It's far from over. This will be a fight to the bitter end. Too much is at stake to succumb to bullying tactics and pressure from politicians and corporations. The people are speaking!
Keep up the good work.

Get some news people down there !
cheers, parsnip
It astounds me that there are people around that refuse to think long term, particularly in government and the private sector. The tar sands are a blight, and instead of just refusing to take from that area and seriously invest energy in long term alternative energy, these people think short term and scar the land.
