[Sust-mar] Event Announcement: Film Screening: "On the Line" Mahone Bay, Oct. 18th,

[Marion Moore]

South Shore Chapter of the Council of Canadians screens *On The Line*



In summer 2010, award-winning eco-adventurist and filmmaker Frank Wolf with
friend Todd McGowan biked, hiked,  and paddled the GPS track of the
proposed Northern Gateway Pipeline, talking to people from all walks of
life whom they met along the way. With humour and open heart, they recorded
their journey, providing us with the opportunity not only to see the
landscape that will bear the risks and consequences of the proposed
pipeline but also to hear the often unheard perspectives of those living
along the estimated 5.5 billion dollar mega-project.



The South Shore Chapter of the Council of Canadians will screen *On The Line
*  Friday. October 18 at 7:30 p.m. at the Mahone Bay Centre. The
documentary is, of course, relevant for those who live along the proposed
1,170 kilometre oil pipeline from Bruderheim, Alberta to Kitimat, British
Columbia. For us on the South Shore, it is also relevant for anyone
interested in national energy issues in general, including the potential
negative impact on natural resources, people’s livelihoods, and energy
security for Nova Scotians. Particularly important are the film’s lessons
about the scientific capacity to perform successful “clean ups” on
different terrains.



Everyone is welcome to attend and join the open discussion after the
viewing. Admission is free but donations will be accepted to help cover
rental costs. Refreshments, including Fair Trade coffee, will be served. To
