"This nuclear waste facility will damage the water and we all know that. Conscientious people are rising. We must rise together, we are all in that medicine wheel. No matter our colour, our creed or our title, we are all related in the human family andwe must stand together."
We cannot stop the thunder. We cannot stop the rain from falling. We cannot stop the lightning from shining. We cannot stop the rivers from flowing. But together as human beings, as brothers and sisters, we can certainly stop thenuclear waste facility from coming here on the Ottawa River."
