Dear Jennifer, last time we met in Bella Bella and walked down the street together, I mentioned that I appreciated your work and was glad to have voted for you. But since then, your John Horgan regime has just gotten worse, and of late, horrible is the only word.
I'm appalled at how absolutely useless John Horgan's "toolbox" against the dreadful "Justin Trudeau Pipeline" has been, and the shocking continuation of the "Site C Sucks" damn Mega-Folly just adds insult to injury. There was the seriously appalling racist RCMP violence at the forced-in Wet'suwet'en fracked gas pipeline demonstrations, and the full-bore disease-vectoring man-camps forging ahead, while all the rest of us endure strict COVID 19 restrictions.
But the very worst thing to see is that not a single MLA in your "government" has got either the conscience or the courage to protest the levelling of one of Vancouver Island's (and this planets) final intact watershed tracts of primaeval forest, even in the Premiers own riding.
My family and I are very profoundly outraged and disgusted about the violent RCMP arrests and the pull-out-all-the-stops ASSAULT on our most final and most magnificent botanical splendours by Big Logging. Your government could not even bother itself to set aside the tiny little Fairy Creek refugia-tuft that stands alone amidst a gargantuan sea of clearcutting.
Against a backdrop of utterly disastrous global climate catastrophe that your government has shamefully ignored.
How can I tell my beautiful children that we have been so ABSOLUTELY stymied, backstabbed and defeated on every single avenue by which we have attempted to do the right thing for their futures?
You and every single one of your fellows in the HORRIBLE HORGAN REGIME should be ashamed of yourself for so uselessly squandering your special opportunity to do something/anything useful for this planet and all its beings.
Heartbroken and extremely angry,
Ingmar Lee
