He doesn’t want to have to justify his government’s inaction on the trucker blockade.
Are you referring to Liberal Doug Ford, Premiere of 0ntario ?

I was actually going to give Poilievre a chance but I'm starting to think I'm going back to basing my choice on the potential influence followers will have on Canada's leaders. Any party/country that includes as many people with the same insanely warped perspective as yours is unhealthy to say the least.
"insanely warped perspective" . . . . that's why you and your ilk have given Canada the fungus it has now. Betting you're originally from GTA . . .

Perhaps you also forget that this illegal occupation came on the heels of the Jan. 6 attack on the US capital. That lends context to this event. The leaders of the illegal occupation issued a document (Memorandum of Understanding was what I believe it was called) showing the intent of overthrowing the lawful government of Canada.
And all the while, Skippy as usual contracted 'convenient Covid' and hid behind Mommy's couch sniping his gutless mysogynistic, racial, inflammatory, stupid quips, then acts like a big shot by calling out the troops.
A real leader would have met with the Freedom Convoy and at least tried to work out a plan to get them to pull back. But, Oh No! . . . not gutless Skippy. What disgrace to Canada.

Sure hoping you don't do anything foolish or dangerous. Your rage against the forestry sector and its workers is very disturbing considering that you immigrated here to the middle of North Coast Timber Supply Area and think that this renewable and sustainable resource should shut down because you don't like it. Get a grip on reality.
Sharing your bush hygiene is obviously more important to you than when you were asked to share your vision for BC's prime industry. Me thinks you couldn't tell the difference between spruce and sponge-cake.

myata, what do you know (if anything) about the BC forestry sector?
Is your total knowledge of this subject what you glanced out of an airplane window?
You and the imported anti are against renewable and sustainable logging, yet you both benefit from the services this sector brings to this province.

To you???? On this board?????
I only suggest you steer clear of all forestry and environment related discussions. Do yourself a favor so you are not in the position of the King in his new clothes all the time.
You don't have any experience or ideas concerning BC's forest industry. Why did you respond to this thread if you're not willing to share your 'master plan' and set everything straight?
You've let it be known in earlier threads concerning BC's prime revenue resource, that you want all logging stopped.
I only suggest you steer clear of all forestry operations. Do yourself a favor so you are not in the position to endanger yourself and others with your protests.

I live where I want to live, close to the wilderness.
The uneducated likes of you are the problem.
Care to share your 'vision' of how forestry should be carried out? Care to share your qualifications/experience/expertise in the BC forestry industry?
C'mon buddy, tell us how to manage BC's greatest resource . . . .

Some 20-40 years ago the old forest was logged, but mostly destroyed with much of the timber left to rot. The new growth, which is some 20 - 30 year old trees are now logged. If the area is replanted, the third growth will be smaller trees, and I doubt someone will give them even 20-30 years before those are destroyed.
Renewable and sustainable forestry . . . .
If you hate the BC forest industry so much, why did you choose to live in the middle of the North Coast Timber Supply Area?
Life's full of choices. Apparently you've made a poor one, and typical for you and your ilk, you blame others.

Stop this crap!
You should know as well as I do that it is not!
Sick and tired of giving you all the facts over and over and then have you post your next stupid comment under the next thread!
Your 'facts' are not facts, and have nothing to do with a sustainable and renewable resource here in BC. You came here to Canada/BC 20 yrs. ago and have hinted at environmental 'terrorism' towards logging/forestry. We deal with your type regularly. You and the OP use the benefits of BC forestry yet stick your self-righteous noses in the air when the engine of those benefits don't jive with your uninformed and ignorant ideas of what 'renewable and sustainable' really mean.
If you're not happy in Canada, there are options . . . . consider them.

Far out of sight means it doesn't happen? It means that this (picture) is "sustainable" and "renewable"? Great. So what was that "East coast fishing" analogy?

That is because the area around Vancouver looks what it looks and not even secondary (forget 1,000 or even 300-year old) primary forest. Because "replanting" is another fairy tale, a great Canadian feel-goodie story. Because in the reality you can't cut fast enough whatever comes up, new 30 to 40 year growth isn't enough and you'll cut it along with all you can get to till nothing's left.
Because sustainable means you take only as much as grows back max, and renewable means you can show the place in exactly the same condition and reasonable time. And you aren't interested in either, obviously. Your idea is a quick buck under the tune of some cute green story. As is Drux's great green pellets from waste. A perfect union of purpose.
You know nothing of which you speak and it shows with your every post. You are not worth the effort to rebuke your childish grasp of BC's forestry industry.

Thus I think Singh will want to cut ties right away with the Liberals.
Though NDP will not become the government, I think Singh is hoping to regain what Layton had.
Good post and insight . . . . but, I think this will be the demise of Jagmeet Singh, and the Federal NDP. There's just no difference between the Liberals and Singh's party now, and many NDP voters are dealing with the consequences of the one-track policy (climate change) of Justin Trudeau . . . death of the petroleum industry, lack of investor confidence in Canada, food/fertilizer cut-backs, devalued $$, the list is long, and Jagmeet Singh is instrumental in the implementation of such.

How about: laziness, dumbness plus enormous, all-encompassing greed? For two hundred years, can you show one forest that you planted from scratch and managed sustainably and renewably to be the wonder of the world? Instead of worthless pledges and wordplay too thin to cover ubiquitous clearcuts?
Show one 1,000-year old forest that you "renewed" successfully the word so cute just jumps on the tongue.
Ship it all to China, fast! Before the price drops another cent.
Stupidity becomes you . . . .

Most of B.C.’s coastal forests are considered to be old growth if they contain trees that are more than 250 years old. Have you been to BC coast? Have you thrown a look around? How much of the clearcuts count as 'old growth' in this great picture? Ask your sustainable forestry expert!
Your every post on this subject shows your ignorance. BC forestry is renewable and sustainable. Your deflection to Drax is used to cover your real intent to stop logging period.

That logic is no different from think of the bombers of the pond when you eat fish. Its not only about what but how too. Time changes, circumstances change you can't pretend that you're in some time bubble blow up everything in sight because here, the license and that's what they did three centuries back. This how we got here no cod remember could take as much as needed with a basket. And we'll be out of forests too (old growth, primary - almost done) and salmon too this way, and why not?
Flying over Vancouver could see very clearly (if looking, important) all that pretty tales of sustainable-renewable forestry are worth. Can guess that Drux tales just another spin on the same old: squeeze out of it as much dough as possible NOW and to f@$king hell with the posterity.
Your childlike grasp of the BC forest industry is somewhat amusing in a sad sort of way.
You have a great day !

. . . in this 21st century, why do you need to raze entire forests even if the trees cannot be used?
The wood is used. You don't know what you're talking about. Pulp/paper, cardboard, pellets, bark/debris burned as fuel for pulp mills, etc.
Do you think forestry workers just spend huge amounts for machinery, wages, fuel, time, etc. just so they can "raze entire forests" without a use for the wood and compensation for their time and labour?
Think of the forestry workers every time you reach for the toilet paper.

1. "Drax sawmills cut and sell lumber to builders and use the sawdust , chips and bark for pellets"
2. Drax later admitted that it did use logs from the forest to make wood pellets.
3. "But documents on a Canadian forestry database show that only 11% of the logs delivered to the two Drax plants in the past year were classified as the lowest quality"
Blind and deaf or a willing idiot? No offense but are there any other logical options?
You don't know what you're talking about.
Low quality logs are chipped for the pulp mills, and used for pellets, etc.
Was a logger for 43 years . . . . betting you couldn't tell the difference between hemlock and a ham sandwich.

Old growth or farmed though ?
Coastal Douglas fir 'old growth' is being protected more and more these days. Some 2nd growth fir is 5+ feet in diameter at the stump. Many folks mistake this as 'old growth' . . .
There is nothing wrong with harvesting mixed species cut blocks (logging areas) and getting the value-added bonus from low grade timber in the form of pulp, and pellets, etc.
The article is extremely misleading and designed to trigger folks with no knowledge of Canadian (BC) logging sustainability and renewal.
It would take pages to lay out the mistakes and deception in the article to folks that know little/nothing about Canada's forest industry.
