Letters...

These are various letters sent to the logging companies, local Regional District and government offices

The first two letters on this page were signed by many members of the community and sent during the comment period of Kalesnikoff's Forest Stewardship Plan development. They are supposed to be 'considered' in the FSP.
The FSP describes the comments as: Comments about 'water quality and quantity': 110 complaints, Next highest number is 84 complaints under the derogatory 'not in my backyard' category. Lastly, Kalesnikoff FSP states the 'summary table is biased due to a petition letter received from the Glade Community...."  (emphasis added)


This was a Letter of Concern sent to ATCO Wood Products and Kalesnikoff Logging Company, and signed by 100+ residents in Glade.

The value that the forest adds to the health and welfare of all life is paramount and how we care for the elements of nature that provide us with these benefits should be foremost in our actions. This value is as important as or, or even more important than, economic gain, for without the forest ecosystems we cannot flourish. Water is the priority – our forests that produce that water is our priority. Water is life and without clean water, nothing can live.
