Ya gotta love a government that knows what’s important.
On May 8, Governor Walker signed a bill into law establishing August 10 of each year as Alaska Wild Salmon Day. On July 15, the Guv signed a proclamation making July 2016 BBQ Month.
What more could an Alaskan want?
I’m glad you asked. The law I’d like to see Governor Walker sign is the one that says the state of Alaska won’t consider any more proposals that involve strip mining in drainages that contain salmon streams.
It’s outrageous that we’re even talking to the Pebble people about strip mining in the Bristol Bay drainage, the most productive salmon region on earth. If our government allows this project to proceed, it may well prove to be one of the most destructive things that Man has ever done to this planet.
