Praise for Al Rempel’s work
“Al Rempel uses the language of his people—or at least the rough-sleeved working stiffs of northern BC—when he captures fragments of slang like ‘chuck it down the hatch….’ His lyricism reaches heights that crackle with originality and echo in the brain. Rempel proves that it’s the poet, not the environmentalist, who makes us ache to preserve the natural beauty of the world.”
— Arthur Joyce
