A multi billionaire Indonesian family who already destroyed the pulp mill industry in BC.

We already know the family’s playbook; don’t let NS be the next victim.

I can't access the full article but if this is where I think it is, it's near where my mom lives and she is furious about the possibility.

So sick of this government and their arrogance. We’re supposed to be building up Canadian businesses and upholding Canadian democracy, and Houston is doing everything he can to betray both.
