Done....and I encourage others to do the same. Fishing has given me so much for the last 45 years, it's the least we can do.

 

[Brando]

I will donate and be there on the 6th and would encourage others to do the same.

This will likely be one of several events. The Monday was strategically chosen as the DFO office will be open, it is a good day for media attention, and we can capitalize on the downtown crowd that can join the rally on their lunch break. At the end of the day, we want and need pressure from not only people at the rally, but also media. We are hoping that a Monday event will accomplish that. We certainly see the concerns of a weekday event, a weekend date may follow.

Really good you are doing this. I will be in Bamfield or I would be there!! Its time for action and to have our rights back especially rec fishermen/women who bring pile and piles of money into our economy and small towns and are true conservationists

 

[capman]

[Whole in the Water]

Have to work, but donated.
