Road building underway near Jordan River-We need your help!

Trees are falling and rocks are being blasted for road materials, in preparation for Western Forest Products subdivisions, across from Sandcut Beach and a few kms from Jordan River.

Join us at Library Square at Noon this Thursday, July 10, and help save this land while there is still time.

While many of us are enjoying our summer vacations, Western Forest Products taking the opportunity to work quickly to get roughly 3500 acres ready for subdivision.

Bob Wylie, the provincial approving officer for the WFP subdivision, has yet to respond to the 100's of letters demanding he act in the public interest and turn down Western Forest Products application for a subdivision. Join with us in our call for public hearing on the issue. The voices of all those affected by the potential subdivision must be heard.

Members from the affected communities, recreational groups, environmentalists and representatives from the T’Sou-ke First Nations are to attend the rally. There will be a lineup of speakers from the affected communities and organizations.
