Band-aid solutions are not going to fix the #flooding problems in the #Chemainus River #watershed - Chief James Thomas from the #Halalt #FirstNation told #NorthCowichan council last month. He said the watershed and its #salmon are in #jeopardy mainly due to #logging practices that were conducted upstream in the watershed over the past 50 years.

2025 marks my 33rd year with trying to get #BCForestryReform in #BritishColumbia #Canada.

The former BC Liberals were big on profiting from #deforestation. We had some hope when #BCNDP took over #BCgovernment but that was quickly dashed. The now dead John Horgan led BC into fresh new neoliberal, ecocidal hellholes. Our current BC Premier Eby was groomed by that former colonial capitalist jerkwad. Both neoliberals & fascist adjacent, white-is-right turdbuckets. More forests were clear-cut under #BCNDP power than under the former BC Liberal asshats.

Don't buy into government greenwashing & whitewashing lies when it comes to old growth forests. Denounce forestry industry funded lobbyists BS too. We need to #BanCorporateLobbyists & to #StopCorporateWelfare to fight more government corruption.

#FlashbackFriday
2021. Chained up in front of BC Ministry of Environment for 4 hours to demand a stop to old growth logging, for Old Growth Strategic Review recommendations to be fully implemented & for massive BC forestry reforms.

Twig antler headband to coexist better with the trees & wildlife, when out exploring magic within forests. I love ancient, mossy, old growth forests 💚🌲❤️🌲💚
