Native youth from the Grassy Narrows community in Northwestern Ontario, and their allies, have occupied the corporate headquarters of forestry multinational Abitibi-Consolidated in Montreal. The protesters have been inside the offices since approximately 11:30am, and are demanding a face-to-face meeting with Abitibi CEO John Weaver. The protesters are occupying in opposition to the clearcut logging of the traditional lands of Grassy Narrows.

IF YOU ARE FROM THE MONTREAL-AREA: There is a solidarity presence outside the offices of Abibiti (the Sunlife Building at 1155 Metcalfe, just north of Rene-Levesque). As well, please contact local media about the
occupation.

The occupiers can be reached inside at the following number: 514-815-3792.

Ceci est un média alternatif de publication ouverte. Le collectif CMAQ, qui gère la validation des contributions sur le Indymedia-Québec, n'endosse aucunement les propos et ne juge pas de la véracité des informations. Ce sont les commentaires des Internautes, comme vous, qui servent à évaluer la qualité de l'information. Nous avons néanmoins une Politique éditoriale , qui essentiellement demande que les contributions portent sur une question d'émancipation et ne proviennent pas de médias commerciaux.

This is an alternative media using open publishing. The CMAQ collective, who validates the posts submitted on the Indymedia-Quebec, does not endorse in any way the opinions and statements and does not judge if the information is correct or true. The quality of the information is evaluated by the comments from Internet surfers, like yourself. We nonetheless have an Editorial Policy , which essentially requires that posts be related to questions of emancipation and does not come from a commercial media.
