About 50 people came in out of the rain to hear from several speakers on why the controversial, proposed Site-C Dam should not go ahead.
 
Joe Foy of the Wilderness Committee, "Over a hundred kilometres of valley bottom flooded, thousands of acres of farmland, this would be the biggest deletion of farmland in the Agricultural Land Reserve history. If it goes forward, an eight billion dollar project that would sky-rocket our power bills, all for power we don't need."

Among the other speakers: Treaty 8 First Nations Tribal Chief Liz Logan, and Diane Culling of the Peace River Valley Environmental Association.
 
BC Hydro says if approved, the dam would produce enough electricity to power more than 450-thousand homes  a year.
