Canadians should prepare for an unprecedented assault on our resources, Maude Barlow warned on Wednesday, March 7, 2012.

“There’s a free-for-all coming, I feel it,” the chair of the Council of Canadians told an audience of 200 at Georgian College in Barrie.

“What is coming is an assault on every tree in our country, on every fish, on every mineral and every fresh-water source,” she said.

The reason: Europe and China, having exhausted their own resources are in tight competition to lock down access to raw resources elsewhere in the world.
