B.C. has a BIG opportunity to support real value-added milling under a framework that upholds the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples Act and its commitments to protect old growth. #ProtectOldGrowth
About 80 of us rallied in Courtenay on Tuesday - moving speeches, hard facts, and truth-telling songs. We demand protection for at-risk old growth and accountability from BC Timber Sales and the provincial government. Call Premier David Eby: 250-387-1715. #ProtectOldGrowth #ComoxValley #oldgrowth
Everywhere on Earth, we’re fighting to protect our only home. In the Walbran Valley, people are holding the line against old-growth logging: cedars, salmon, water, climate. This isn’t just about trees; it’s about life. Every forest needs defenders.

You know I’m including this for good reason. You know who is attempting to remove the Roadless Act, so more trees can be cut down. What will that do to our environment? Our planet? This is worth a read. This is also the introductory article for this month’s High Country. #ProtectOldGrowth
“Big trees, not big stumps.” BC is still allowing the razing of old growth. #protectoldgrowth
“That means polluting our clean air and drinking water sources to pad the bottom lines of timber and mining companies – all while pursuing the same kind of mismanagement that increases wildfire severity.”

As a resident of the northwest, I have been fearing this. They are determined to sell off and destroy the very best of our remaining forests and their inhabitants. There is so little time left. We need a military coup NOW.
