Re: “Could Enbridge learn from Dr. Seuss?” printed in the Thursday, Feb. 21 issue of the Merritt Herald.
Dear Editor: Three cheers and a huge thank you for last week’s column by Phillip Woolgar. It deserves our recognition! This man has a clear understanding of present conditions and events and is not afraid to speak up. This is what we all need to be doing. Where does it say this generation has the right to dig up, drill and frack every bit of earth, wherever and whenever, until there is nothing left for the coming generations?
Until there is no clean water or clean air to sustain this planet? What gives any company – large or small – such rights? It will stop when we have the gumption to speak up. We should be grateful to the people who do. This is a democracy – do not be afraid. If anyone has not read Mr. Woolgar’s message, I would ask that they do and perhaps read it a second time to really “get it.” Then, for the sake of your children and grandchildren, please write your own letters and make your voices heard. Thank you, Mr. Woolgar. Thank you Merritt Herald – you have come a long way! I feel proud of you.
