1.) Clayoquot Sound:
Old-growth logging plan sparks war-in-woods threat
B.C. could see a return to protests and blockades in world-renowned Clayoquot Sound as a forestry company prepares to log an old-growth forest in the Hesquiat Point Creek watershed - the first time a company has begun logging in such a “pristine” valley in nearly 20 years.
And this time, first nations and environmentalists - allies in the 1993 protests - are on opposite sides.
(I saw an abridged version of this article in the Vancouver Sun or the Times Colonist as well.)
