This is one of the first times that I have ever seen such a large segment of the population mobilized on an issue, whether for culture or another issue. We have seen people from the Gaspé Peninsula, the Baie des Chaleurs in New Brunswick and First Nations people come together to denounce the arrival of this plant. The mobilization is unprecedented, and, what is more, it is for the environment.
On November 2nd, 2006. See this statement in context.
