Tell OfficeMax to keep its promise

Last January, Grassy Narrows First Nation called for an end to clear-cut logging within the community?s traditional territory over concerns about the community?s health and welfare. Last year, we confirmed that OfficeMax sells paper made from those clear cuts.

At the time, OfficeMax promised to help resolve the conflict in Grassy Narrows by promoting ?win-win? solutions to the community?s concerns. To its credit, a supplier to OfficeMax did help convince the Province to begin negotiating with the community.

One year later, however, the only clear ?winner? is OfficeMax and its paper suppliers. Despite pledges to "do what we can to help", the clear-cutting continues while the negotiators talk. So far there's been no change on the ground in Grassy Narrows.

We'll be doing some street theatre at the event. There will be a Pin-the-chainsaw-on-the-donkey game with some interaction between the person running the game who will represent Big Money and the person who happens upon the game (a plant of course) and disagrees with the Big Money plans. Participation in street theatre is optional.

This is part of actions that will be taking place in over 30 locations across the U.S. and Canada.

We will be performing street theater at this demonstration.
