Calgary should've voted for the NDP if they don't want Kananaskis and other valued natural areas to be razed by largely unregulated industry. Would've had a Bighorn Provincial Park to hike also...Jackasses.
Yes, this is the christofascist logging company in Cochrane.
Great trail riding with The Fox this morning

#SprayLakesSawmills claims #clearcutting areas like #BraggCreek actually saves them from #Wildfires. We hit up Devon Earl of the #AlbertaWildernessAssociation for some pushback.
Alberta's provincial government instituted a new #KananaskisConservationPass and then started opening #BraggCreek to clearcutting. There's a pretty glaring disconnect there. We put it under the Climate Lens.
If they're going to clear-cut #WestBragg anyways why are we getting hit with those new provincial user fees? Isn't this protected land? We ask Devon Earl of the #AlbertaWildernessAssociation on the latest #ClimateLens.
What's going on with the proposed #ClearCutLogging of our popular tourist destination in #BraggCreek and how does that relate to issues of #Alberta's forest #Conservation generally? We hit up Devon Earl of the #AlbertaWildernessAssociation for some answers
A logging company has its eyes set on clearcutting some of #BraggCreek's popular trailheads. #AlbertaWildernessAssociation's Devon Earl and co-host #AlbertaEnvironmentalNetwork's Molli Bennett talk about what that area means to them & why Calgarians should care.

If approved, a #ClearCutLogging proposal from a company called #SprayLakesSawmills will impact popular #hiking/#cycling trails near tourism destination #BraggCreek. Do Albertans know what's at stake here? Is the public being consulted properly?
ALSO: we take on those bogus "#MassArson-causing-wildfires" claims head-on
