Deal Could Open National Forests to Developers
A controversial deal between the federal government and the nation’s largest private
landowner could increase residential development of forests around the country,
according to congressional investigators.
The proposed agreement between the Forest Service and Plum Creek Timber Co. would
allow the company to use roads on national forests in Montana to develop its
adjacent private property for subdivisions. Such easements often allow the company
to use public roads only for logging or forest management.

CALL FOR HELP! SUPPORT BARRIERE LAKE ALGONQUINS AGAINST QUEBEC POLICE ATTACKS, ARRESTS, BEATINGS, HUMAN RIGHTS ABUSES
MNN. Oct.12, 2008. On Monday, October 6, 2008, the Algonquins of Barriere Lake had enough and blocked Highway 117 in Northern Quebec. They want Canada and Quebec to live up to the “trilateral agreement” signed in 1991 between the 3 parties. The Algonquins have a right to sustainably develop and co-manage their traditional territories and to have a share in resource revenues. Canada and Quebec obviously believe in stealing but not sharing. Isn’t that the “slippery slope” that multinational corporations are sliding into right now? They refuse to comply with the agreement which would save the environment.

THE CAPITALIST PARTY IS OVER! DARK DAYS BEFORE CLEARING SKIES
MNN. Oct. 11, 2008. The stock market crash could be the best thing that ever happened to save the planet. The pollution from the skies will clear so that we can see the horizon once more. The Wall Street bankers are surprised that people are not reacting yet or cracking up. Angry words, yes! But watch out! We’re getting all our affairs in order. Governments and wars can’t be run without money. So what will happen to all our differences? We might have to talk to each other like human beings.
