Sacrifice to the Gods of Development   

The Ottawa River at the mouth of Kennedy Creek in Deep River.

Usually, I only post fresh, in-season photos. But today, politics intervenes. Deep River Council is seriously considering sacrificing this wild section of Ottawa River front to the gods of development. It must not be allowed to happen! We must push for council to accept the advice of the County Planning Officer and continue the designation of this land as Environmental Reserve in the Town's Official Plan.
