Thanks to Stefan Labbé for his feature story on the endangered caribou habitat in B.C. (Pique, July 25: “Species at risk”).
His article touched a nerve with me and I’m sure many of your readers. Unfortunately, the extensive logging plans in critical caribou habitat is another piece in the seeming disregard for the natural environment by the Eby government.
Add more pipelines with the accompanying increase of fracking, hence pollution of vast amounts of fresh water in the Peace and potential damage to critical salmon-spawning habitat along the planned Prince Rupert Gas Transmission pipeline route. Or permits to multinational companies turning entire forests into wood pellets for export.
It makes you wonder where we are heading in this province. Who is benefitting from all this resource extraction? Is it our future generations or is it the Trump billionaire club, which is investing in the pipelines and LNG terminals?
