Book Cover & Preview Text
To our location at the confluent of the Restigouche and the Matapedia River have journeyed the rich and the powerful and the famous. US Presidents from Grover Cleveland to Eisenhower to moguls of big business, old money and nouveau riche alike, many of the greatest actors and athletes of our age, foreign dignitaries too numerous to mention, and last, but certainly not least, a host of Canadian government officials seeking to enjoy the previledges of their rank and power and the opportunity to rub shoulders with persons of wealth and celebrity.
The clubs of the Restigouche River mainly the Restigouche Salmon Club were all in total panic, afraid of losing their salmon fishing waters, and seeking an urgent solution. So many salmon in the Restigouche River was BAD NEWS for these clubs, as the local anglers wanted to participate in the sport or worse open up all good fishing to the general public. If the fishing could be rendered marginal, then the growing demand by the public to open up all waters to the public could be blunted.
Stopping the century old practice of Artic seal hunting would decrease salmon numbers by allowing a dramatic increase in the numbers of these prolific salmon predators.
The USDA reported as early as 1916 that an acre of hemp produced as much paper as four acres of trees annually.

Are we seeing the end of an era?
I hope this book will contribute to raising public outrage through the roof about this corruption of government policy by Big Corporate Interest.
