Stop The cutting of 71,400-hectare provincial park around Spruce Lake in the South Chilcotin Mountains.

South Chilcotin park to be reviewed by Liberals
The Liberal government is launching a review that could overturn the NDP's last-minute decision to create a 71,400-hectare provincial park around Spruce Lake in the South Chilcotin Mountains. Stan Hagen, minister of sustainable resource management, confirmed in an interview Tuesday from Victoria that he plans to visit the South Chilcotin later this month. He will meet representatives of industry and the community in the Lillooet area to discuss concerns that the park will reduce employment and hurt the local economy. He will also view Spruce Lake from the air.

If the BC Liberal government is successful in decommissioning this Class A provincial Park, you can bet your bottom dollar that the timber industry will soon be eyeing the rest of our precious parks! This is a central, precedent setting issue for this new era in BC. PLEASE write, phone, fax, and e-mail now! Tell the Liberals exactly what you think of their plan to decommission the South Chilcotin Mountains Class A Provincial Park.
