To celebrate Maine Maple Sunday, Governor Janet Mills and Commissioner of the Maine Department of Agriculture, Conservation and Forestry Amanda Beal visited Goranson Farm in Dresden today, touring the farm and sugarhouse with owners Jan Goranson and Rob Johanson. After honoring the day with a special Maine maple sundae, Governor Mills expressed her appreciation of the Goranson Farm family and all maple producers across the state.
Dear Editor:
Santa Claus is known and trusted for his benevolence. Milk and cookies and perhaps a clean chimney are all he expects. CMP is the “polar “ opposite, expecting and demanding that Maine donates huge gifts in return for far too little. Barely enough to pay for the wrapping paper and bows. In fact, CMP and its foreign owner are more like The Grinch That Stole Christmas lacking the humanity he manifests at the story’s end.
How has such a cruel plan been hatched to cheat the Canadian Native tribes of their lands destroyed by flooding from the megadams that Quebec Hydro built? Or the destruction of beautiful forest habitat in the northwest of Maine? Why has Govenor Mills endorsed this bogus plan? To date, CMP has only provided us with the glitz of its advertisements, filled with false facts and empty promises.
