Letter gives EnCana 3 months to leave or attacks will 'get a lot worse&#039

A letter sent to a daily newspaper and addressed simply to “EnCana” says attacks against the company will stop for three months to give it a chance to leave the area.

“We can all take a summer vacation including your security personnel and the RCMP who have not helped you to date anyway,” the letter states, adding that the six explosions that have occurred so far have been minor and controlled to make the point that “you are indeed vulnerable, [and] can be rendered helpless.”

The letter, delivered to the Dawson Creek Daily News Wednesday and released yesterday by the RCMP, is the second sent in connection with a string of attacks against EnCana wells and pipelines. The first letter was sent to local newspapers in October, days before the first blast occurred.

Police believe the two hand-printed letters were drafted by the same person. The first was sent from Dawson Creek; the second from Spirit River, Alta., which is located 95 kilometres to the east.
