we need justice
3/18/2010 at 10:43 PM
Our Grandparents were notified on dec/05/07 that their home on Patterson lake Campbell river bc canada was burnt to the ground beyond repair. They have suspicions of arson. For the previous 5 years before the fire my grandparents have been having problems with a gentleman which name can not be mentioned at this time. he was belived to have called the fire in and is the only witness so far as to of seeing the fire a blaze. Our entitre family arlooms were in that cabin and there wasn't one item in there that didnt mean something to someone in this family. Our hearts go out to grandma and grandpa Lachapelle who's personel possesions and home have been taken from them along with there beautiful wilderness and lake.they were then evicted from this land and at this point in time they have been going through a struggle with the court system for over 2 years with nothing being done to rectify this. the government is trying to sweep this under the rug but we are unwilling to let this injustice go. We have a group on facebook dedicated to them with pictures and videos of what was lost along with local coverage from the local news station and papers. The group is called Justice for the beautiful cabin that was taken from our family.i have some pics of the picketing signs and them picketing that my family has made to help protest the injustice (they are on my profile).they started picketing on march 3rd, 2010 infront of the cambell river court house in campbell river, bc. we are try to further our cause with national coverage. im not sure how to go about this, i have tried to email ctv and cbc but have heard nothing. it is very frustrating. if anyone has any suggestions please help us!
