We need serious #ForestryReform in #BritishColumbia immediately. We need to implement the science-based recommendations from experts who were commissioned multiple times by #BCNDP #BCgovernment to produce #OldGrowth Strategic Reviews (twice during Horgan's regime). They promised to implement the recommendations but they have not done so. Our old growth forests aren't numerous anymore & yet our #capitalist driven, #neoliberal government is still allowing them to be cut. In a severe #ClimateCrisis - we're stuck with political leaders who are still siding with ecocidal corporations. We need to ban corporate lobbyists. They never have citizens' best interests at heart & our politicians are too easily bribed.

We need #BCForestryReform no matter who wins to stop ongoing #deforestation of #BritishColumbia. This is a decades long battle with 2 swinging door BC governments.

Even if you had $100 billion - you can't buy or give funds to First Nations to buy cutblocks & protect them instead of logging them. The way our shady government has set things up - if you purchase cutblock, you're legally required to log it or else you lose your purchase. That needs to be changed. It's a screwed up clause created by former BC Liberals & was kept on books by BC NDP. Only the BC Greens have ever fought to get this amended as part of necessary, overdue BC #ForestryReform.
