Vancouver Island - Protecting Paradise

TAKE ACTION!

The BC government will protect Vancouver Island’s old-growth forests and BC milling jobs when enough citizens know, care, and speak up! An educated and active citizenry cannot be ignored by any government for long. It’s VITAL that YOU let the politicians know how strongly you feel about ending old-growth logging on Vancouver Island and banning raw log exports.
