After seeing the recent news/video on the brutal force used by the police at Fairy Creek, particularly against the youth, seniors and indigenous peoples in recent days, there was no difficulty getting a good crowd to gather. Wonderful signs, including one from the Clayquot protest era. Our CPOC banner was a hit for sure, but there were huge banners and signs. The organizers spoke and presented a letter to the acting staff sergeant, Mike Kane, Parksville and then went to the busy highway. All in all a huge success. Organized by Doreen Backstead and David Haynes and Andrea Smith.
