Victory on B.C.'s Sunshine Coast
After several months of a hard fought campaign, residents of Gibsons, British Columbia, have won an incredible victory, successfully forcing Wal-Mart to back down from building in their community. According to a member of Sunshine Coast Citizens for Responsible Development, the developers of the site are now looking for new tenants. The SCCCRD came together in response to Wal-Mart's attempted entry and led a concerted grass-roots campaign to spread awareness of the negative impacts the big box store has had on small communities.
