We have a short time window this week to influence this decision before Ontario’s position becomes fully entrenched and the conflict becomes more difficult to resolve. This effort is in support of and an action alongisde an 11 yr blockade in Grassy Narrows territory against clearcuts.

Peer reviewed science has found that clearcut logging in the boreal forest raises mercury levels in local fish above the safe limit for human consumption.  New logging will prolong and exacerbate the tragedy of mercury poisoning in Grassy Narrows – a tragedy that was first seared into the national consciousness in the 1970’s.

Please consider taking the following actions:

1.  Email the decision makers here  http://freegrassy.net/mercury-action-alert/

2.  Forward this email to your lists, friends, family, and colleagues.

3.  Post about this on facebook, twitter, and other social media.

4.  Change your facebook cover and image to one of the images at the bottom of this page.

5.  Prepare to take further action if this decision goes the wrong way.

Thanks for your ongoing support for Grassy Narrows.
