ELF Communique and newspaper article

Below is a communique that was sent to Healing the Earth Radio (resistanceisfertile.ca) and an article from the local paper.

On July 15th, the "Group of 8" (G8) richest industrialized
countries will convene in St. Petersburg, Russia to plot their
continued domination and commodification of the planet, this time
under the euphemistic banner of "Energy Security." A leaked G8
"Communique on Energy Security" calls for trillions of dollars in
new investments in oil, gas and coal production worldwide, plus
wide-scale global expansion of nuclear energy. With runaway climate
change* looming just over the horizon, such neoliberal business-as-
usual poses a direct threat to the continuation of life on Earth as
we know it.

Resistance is self defense. The G8 agenda promotes petroleum-
dependent "Energy Security" that pollutes our land and atmosphere,
exploits communities everywhere, and scorches the Earth’s climate.
Their recipe for catastrophe must be met with our global resistance!
On 18 July, 2006, 6 litres of gas were put to use.
STOP DEVELOPEMENT NOW!

ELF

We are everywhere!



Arson cited in $80,000 blaze

GUELPH (Jul 20, 2006)

A fire in a house under construction in Guelph's south end that occurred some time overnight Tuesday was deliberately set, the Guelph Fire Department reports.

"Our investigation indicates arson," said fire prevention officer Dave Nieuwold after returning from the scene last night.

The fire began in a second-storey bedroom in the house on Hassler Road, a new street in the Pineridge subdivision bordered by Arkell Road and Gordon Street, and appears to have burned out on its own.

Charred walls were discovered by construction workers yesterday, who contacted police and fire officials.

The house was nearing completion, awaiting drywall and flooring. Nieuwold said the fire caused approximately $80,000 damage as drywall and windows will have to be replaced.
