SUMMARY:Eco-Rally: Pictou Rising! A Conversation with Joan Baxter
DESCRIPTION:Incisive\, no nonsense\, take no prisoners. Joan Baxter’s brilliant exposé “The Mill – Fifty Years of Pulp and Protest” tells the story of shocking government/industry collusion and a community that refuses to take it. Having destroyed the Pictou Landing First Nation’s Boat Harbour\, now Pictou’s Northern Pulp mill wants to dump its effluent in the Northumberland Strait. An extraordinary battle is playing out on our province’s north shore and Baxter’s award-winning book is at its very centre.\nJournalist\, anthropologist\, development consultant\, mother of two much of Joan’s career was in Africa. Home again at last\, she now applies her deep knowledge of direct investment in Africa\, extractive industries\, regulatory capture\, environmental rights and justice\, food sovereignty and sustainable farming and food systems\, to life here in Nova Scotia and Canada. \nInterviewing Joan on stage\, former CBC journalist Jennifer Henderson. Now with the Halifax Examiner\, her publisher calls Henderson “a reporter’s reporter.” Expertise in a host of current local issues like the QE2 replacement\, tidal power\, NSP\, and the state of our nursing homes. \nHomemade snacks\, tea and coffee provided. \nPay-What-You-Can \nFor information and media inquiries\, call 902-823-1404. \nSponsored by Five Bridge Wilderness Heritage Trust\, Friends of Nature\, Healthy Forest Coalition\, St. Margaret’s Bay Stewardship Association\, Transition Bay St Margarets\, Woodens River Watershed Environmental Organization.
