Canada disgraced in Latin America by yet another mining company

Late Night Sunrise from Michael Watts on Vimeo.

Its name is Pacific Rim, it is an environmental abuser, and it is menacing the people of El Salvador. What must Canada’s Salvadoran immigrants, many of whom are refugees here from their country’s dirty civil war, be thinking of this? Probably the same thing I’m thinking: that Pacific Rim is a dirty bully, a corruptor and a national disgrace, in at least two nations. I’m happy to see how the Salvadorans are fighting back and refusing to be intimidated. We could learn a lot from them up here in the Great Oblivious North.
