The Medicine provided by this event is safe and effective. It will speed the removal of salmon farms from BC waters by 2025. It cleanses the waters, removing pests and parasites! It brings back wild salmon! And perhaps most important, it transforms anger, sadness and despair into action!
Special guests include Tla-o-qui-aht citizen, cultural educator, and artist Gisele Martin.
The Music:
The tour will feature music to rouse your inner rebel, provided by none other than the amazing Luke Wallace! Luke is a songwriter, speaker, choral arranger and environmental champion from the Coast Salish Territory known as Vancouver, Canada. He is like a modern Pete Seeger, and for 10 years has been touring, recording, fundraising and organizing for people and the planet. From the moment he hits the stage, he’ll have you tapping your toes and singing along!
