Re:
Val
Werier's
column,
Those
aspen
shelter
ancient
spirits
(Dec.
12).
Mr.
Werier
has
been
conned
like
the
rest
of
us
who
were
previous
supporters
of
the
S.O.S.
(Save
Our
Seine)
He
should
read
the
S.O.S.
March
2001
plan
developed
by
Gaboury
Prefontaine
Perry
in
regards
to
"Bois
des
Esprits."
This
detailed
report
proposes
an
interpretive
"commercial"
canoeing
and
hiking
corridor
consisting
of
the
following:
coffee
shop,
bakery,
classrooms,
gift
shop,
bike,
ski,
skate
and
canoe
rental,
festival
tents,
skating
rink,
washrooms,
outdoors
staging
area,
parking,
five
canoe
docks,
footbridge,
picnic
tables,
hotel
(inn),
15
site
tent
campground
and
parking
areas.
The
quoted
expected
attendance
of
120,000
visitors
per
year
will
eradicate
the
forest,
the
wildlife,
the
spirit
and
the
security
and
quality
of
life
of
the
hundreds
of
seniors
and
others
that
live
on
the
banks
of
the
Seine
River.
