Demonstrations and Rioting

Opinion:

The right to peaceful assembly and protest is a necessary thing to a grassroots governed society. No one guarantees the right to riot and loot. Should the rioters in London and Vancouver be charged , in our view unless you are inciting or conspiring  now which is criminal then you should be allowed once.

The record of interviews and photos should be used to show and intervene the next time. We hope that the people who build credibility for there causes by peaceful and firm civil action carried out by such as King  and Gandi will be remembered as relevent now.

Elkhart lodge

There was a small fire reported in the proximity of the Elkhart lodge yesterday and it was said to have been responded to by emergency crews and is assumed out. The Elkhart lodge is on the Okanogan connector divided freeway between Merritt and West Bank or Kelowna.The concept of a divided highway gives safety and security from cross traffic at level crossings however there is one exit on each phase of the Coquihalla highway system , Lac le Jeune on the Kamloops route 5 and Kingsvale on the Hope phase to Vancouver . ( not level crossing)

There was a standing joke about Elkhart when the highway was under construction as highways policy was to connect communities rather then by pass them ,hence people were calling it Elkhart BC however there is no community but a hunting lodge and a way into wilderness for hunting and prospecting interests.
