Therese Tremblay with the Restigouche District Labour Council, says when Abiti Bowater came to Dalhousie is destroyed the local resources and made the community fully dependent on forestry jobs. She says many workers who have been working their for 35 years are still not receiving their pensions.

Tremblay says government does not care about the forestry workers, about women's rights or about children and the need for a childcare program.
