Subject: RE: BS: Petitcodiac River, New Brunswick, Canada
It will indeed be a subject of interest, kat. Especially for engineers like me to see the people stand up to the politicians and demand that the environment takes precedent over getting re-elected. And for the fish and birds and people. Imagine... a SALMON! ONE salmon has been found in the river. Millions of salmon were denied the right to even be born because of the shortmindedness of politicians. Getting elected for money sucks.
The process of "cleaning up" may take many more years than the 42 years of degradation that have taken place, but the mighty Peticodiac will RESURGO (Moncton's motto).
And, "The Petitcodiac Mudslide" jig written by my cousins may be ancient history someday... the sooner, the better.
