Friends please help ENGLISHMAN RIVER now,
THIS IS NOT A DOUBLE POSTING!!!
This is a reality!
Island Timberlands, or Brookfield Assets, or whatever the fuck they choose to call themselves today, is logging in the middle of Englishman River right now. On a 10 acre island in the middle of the actual flowing river. Some local folks are walking there tomorrow so if you'd like to join us please call me or meet at the Englishman River Falls Park parking lot at 2:30 pm for a hike that only takes 20 minutes to where the trees are being cut down.
It would be nice if others were there on Friday. Perhaps a lot of people could be there on Monday with PRESS!!!
Let's not let these scoundrels get away with this, we need to set a precedent that logging in rivers is NOT ALLOWED or they will set one that its okay!
livid,
Richard
