1. Two men are up in trees: platforms have been erected to accommodate
two tree-sitters, more are expected Sunday evening and Monday.
Workshops on non-violence, civil disobedience, tree-sitting, etc. are
being offered.
2. InterFor's loggers are returning to work on Monday: possibility of
violence.
3. Witness support needed: environmentalists are appealing to the BC
public for support. FAN, PATH and other "Green" environmental groups are
hoping to decrease the possibility of violence and increase the
likelihood of a successful action by using a strategy of strength in
numbers. Car-pooling is being organized at the 2150 Maple St. office (@
6th Ave.), with cars leaving daily/nightly.
4. Under the Volcano: An all-out public relations campaign is being
centred around the popular festival of art and social change.
Carpool leaving after the show tonight to witness Monday morning action.
5. Clayoquot Sound too! The anti-InterFor campaign is gathering steam as
the Friends of Clayoquot Sound prepare to blockade logging in Clayoquot
Sound.
