About

Pacific Free Press was launched in March 2007 by Dutch-Canadian Richard Kastelein of V.O.F. Expathos, in the Netherlands along with  Chris Cook - CFUV radio journalist and Editor in Chief of Pacific Free Press. Cook is based in , Victoria, British Columbia.

The site is a sister to Atlantic Free Press and Brick Ogden an American Expatriate in Amsterdam has been a key supporter of this project.

The mission of Pacific Free Press is simple: to dig out nuggets of truth from the slag-heap of lies, ignorance and witless diversion that has buried public discourse today. Pacific Free Press provides a new venue for disseminating hard news and insightful, fact-based analysis of the harsh realities too often ignored or distorted by the mainstream press.

Crown Stays Charges in Bear Mountain Stand-off
by Zoe Blunt
The Crown won't proceed on mischief charges for the people arrested at the site of the Bear Mountain Interchange in Langford.
 
Charges were stayed for tree sitters Luke Woodyard and Noah Ross, and no charges were laid against Nancy Powell and Ingmar Lee.
 
Ben Isitt will find out his fate on Thursday morning.


 
The forest defenders are now free to return to the interchange site. An invasive species removal party and broom pull is scheduled for next Tuesday, May 20, the same day as the OCP hearing at City Hall. Details to be announced.

The fight to save Garry Oak meadows, rare species and First Nations cultural sites continues. Drop a line to find out more. 
 
Big cheers!
