The Ancient Trees Arrestee Installation is at the corner of Cook and Hilda streets in “Victoria.” One lovingly painted rock per arrest. There have been at least 1200 arrests (1188 formally counted) at Fairy Creek to date. Also, since Save Old Growth started a couple of months ago, a group doing urban activism to save ancient trees, 54 arrests have been made in Nanaimo, Victoria and Vancouver. Many of these arrests have been brutal: hurting peaceful people trying to save the very very very last ancient trees, doing the job the premier promised to do.
