Blockade Grassy Narrows

Protesters have put up a blockade at a logging road near the Grassy Narrows First Nation today.
It went up Tuesday to protest clear-cutting taking place near the community, north of Kenora.
Joe Fobister is one of the organizers and says they are only targeting logging trucks at this time.
Tuesday, at least 6 trucks were sent back empty after 40 protesters blocked the road.
The area being logged is part of the Whisky-Jack Forest, which is under the control of Abitibi-Consolidated.
