Forest Minister Ravi Parmar has needed a positive story for the beleaguered forest sector in BC. Using BC Timber Sales to restore forest health and community safety through treatments like commercial thinning and innovative silviculture is the beginning of one. BC Minister of Forests did say the BC Timber Sale Review would be completed in short order. … “Feedback from the review has made it clear: BCTS is more than just a market-pricing system. It has the expertise and the tools to play a bigger role in active forest management and addressing climate change and British Columbians want to see that happen,” he said at the COFI Convention. The idea that we can mitigate some of the hazards of climate change through actively managing our forests and range landscapes is an idea the WFCA has trafficked in for some time. …In fact, we have put these innovative notions forward to the BCTS Review Task Force.
