Editor,
One hundred years ago my great grandfather brought his family to Dixon, Montana. Our family has ranched and farmed here since then.
This seems to qualify me as a “multi-generational” irrigator. I oppose the Flathead Reservation Compact, the Water Use Agreement, and the Unitary Management Ordinance. These oppressive, dictatorial documents will haunt all water users on and off the reservation for time immemorial.
My ancestors who fought and died for freedom for generations must be rolling over in their graves that some people will now accept enslavement with nothing more than a whimper.
