A demonstration will be set up by members of the Mi'kmaq community at the Canso Causeway this morning in opposition to oil drilling near Lake Ainslie, Cape Breton. 

This follows the rejection of the Margaree [Cape Breton] Environmental Association's appeal to the Nova Scotia Department of Energy to disallow Petroworth Resources from drilling in the area.

The following notice was posted to the Media Co-op's website Wednesday night:
