Public meeting was a great success

65 people attended a public meeting of Don’t Frack PEI on September 17th, which was chaired by Marie Burge. Andrew Lush gave a summary of the presentations, meetings and activities that the committee has undertaken so far. Dr. Peter Clancy gave an engaging talk about the lack of ‘social license’ for fracking, especially in relation to New Brunswick. Eliza Knockwood gave a heartfelt talk about the first nation reaction to fracking and the environmental damage being done by the seismic testing in New Brunswick, and Teresa Doyle led everyone in singing her song, ‘Let’s ban the foolin fracking’. We ran out of time, so we sent people away with a list of possible activities, to be followed up at a meeting later this year.
