Photos: Clayoquot Sound veterans arrested at Kinder Morgan protest on Burnaby Mountain
Being on vacation this week, I headed up the Burnaby Mountain Conservation Area on Wednesday (November 26) to witness the unfolding of Metro Vancouver's very own mini Clayoquot Sound.
It was a fitting day to visit the protest against Kinder Morgan's Trans Mountain pipeline expansion project, as Valerie Langer, Bonny Glambeck, Karen Mahon, Jean McLaren, and Chris Hatch, all veterans of the legendary 1993 Clayoquot Sound demonstrations, were there to be arrested for the cause.
Here are some of the photos I shot that day on the mountain, whose trails I have walked many times.

That's the problem with people who think this system of jailing freedom movers is right . When it's "YOU" their fighting for . Because when theirs no fish in the sea to eat . It's "You ", who'll be feeling "tarred"," feathered", and "jailed". Come on ! It wouldn't hurt to show so support for a good cause that matters for our future . Do your research on the environment and tell me what you really think .
