@cabinguy Good morning. This is great news, albeit, we have plenty of bans on imports that are worked around or abused in some way. I hope this drives a message home.. Everytime Nova Scotia gets close to regulating clear cuts, suddenly 24/7 clearcutting takes place, as if they have advance warning to do it before a law gets passed to prevent it?

“All one needs to do is fly across the province to see the dire state of forest management.” Hammond is talking about British Columbia but what he says applies to the whole of Canada. Just did the same in Nova Scotia, and wept.

Herb Hammond, veteran forester and #forest ecologist, has just resigned from the Association of BC Forest Professionals in disgust. #ABCFP

Nova Scotians have seen examples of “extraordinary steps” by Premier @TimHoustonNS in support of his developer friends’ drive to build not-affordable housing.

For example, #ClearCutting Eisner Cove Wetland’s forest belt + knowingly fueling #ClimateCrisis. #ProtectEisnerWetland
