  • OPEN LETTER TO: May 29, 2019
    AN OPEN LETTER TO: May 29, 2019 - The Honourable Mark Furey, Minister of Justice, Nova Scotia - The Honourable Ralph GooDale, Minister of Public Safety, CanaDa Subject: Atlantic GolD Public MeetinG Police Actions ‘ShockinGly Brutal.’ (Headline, The Chronicle Herald paper edition, May 26, 2019, p.3) As Canadian Citizens we are deeply disturbed by the “shockingly brutal“ actions used by the RCMP to remove a law-abiding citizen who was in no way causing a disturbance, from a public meeting in Sherbrooke, NS, on Thursday evening, May 24. In addition we are further disturbed that this RCMP action was apparently in response to a request from Atlantic Gold, a company seeking to develop open- pit goldmines in the area. John Perkins is a member of the Sustainable Northern Nova Scotia Society (SuNNS). He is an informed, knowledgeable individual who is genuinely concerned about the consequences of open-pit gold mining in our province. His concern is shared by many. While we are aware that in other parts of the world, police have dealt brutally with peaceful citizens opposed to Canadian mining company operations, we demand that in Canada our police be independent and answerable not to corporations, but to our system of democratic law. Consequently, we are callinG for: 1. A public inquiry into the incident in Sherbrooke to ascertain who specifically called the RCMP, and why the RCMP acted immediately, without cause and without further assessment, to brutally remove a concerned law-abiding citizen who was sitting peacefully and in no way creating a disturbance or obstructing justice, from what was advertised as a public meeting.
