It is truly unfortunate that they arrived at the bridge 3 months too late. But that wouldn't stop this band of crime fighters. Unable to identify the people in the photo who burned the bridge, these brave officers, commanded by Gwen, now stand guard over the bridge to ensure no further damage can be done.
The residents faced with such bravery and commitment to protect the bridge rewarded the officers with food & drink during their 24 hrs per day protection. It is almost a party atmosphere with residents singing praises upon Gwen and her band of merry men.
I heard one resident thanking these OPPÂ Protectors saying, "Thank you, we thought our bridge was gone but now that you are here, all is fine, all is well."
To the untrained eye the bridge looks destroyed. It looks like you wouldn't need four officers protecting it 24 hrs 7 days a week, but then again, we don't have the wisdom and insight like Gwen Boniface.
Who could have thought that while the bridge existed it didn't warrant protection but now there is no limit to the amount Ontario will pay to protect... well. not a bridge... but.. Charcoal.
Thats right the OPP have decided that this Charcoal is valuable - surely you cannot let it fall into the wrong hands. I can see it now, pieces of charcoal being sold around Ontario with the words, "I survived the OPP in Caledonia."
It costs thousands of dollars per day to protect this charcoal and I am sure it will go down in the history books as the most expensive Charcoal on the planet. But don't worry, Ontario Taxpayers can afford it - after all we do want to make it look like the OPP are protecting something.
If they were not protecting this charcoal what else could they be protecting... well.. the public???
But then again protecting the charcoal ensures they do not have to arrest any Natives.
