DONATIONS REQUESTED FOR ABORIGINAL INJUNCTION TO PROTECT RED HILL VALLEY

Lawyers working on the injunction of Mohawk citizen Larry Green are seeking financial assistance to pursue the case asserting his and his descendents Nanfan Treaty rights in Red Hill Valley.

The two lawyers, Murray Klippenstein and Andrew Orkin, have committed their firms' resources to the case, but there is no doubt that the City will be willing to spend enormous amounts of tax dollars to oppose them. Accordingly, the lawyers indicate that they would welcome any and all financial support from the public to help cover the extensive costs of the legal steps required to undertake this important environmental and treaty rights case. The two law firms are working day and night to get the case into court on an urgent basis.

If you are interested in supporting this legal action to oppose the construction of the Red Hill Creek Expressway, cheques should be made payable to "Red Hill Valley Defence Fund" and may be mailed or delivered to:

Andrew Orkin,
Barrister and Solicitor,
103 Glenfern Ave.,
Hamilton, ON L8P 2T9.
