Since starting at the Forest Enhancement Society of BC (FESBC) this past September, I’ve continued to be impressed by our employees, board of directors, government funders, and most importantly, the folks whose projects leverage FESBC’s investments across our province of British Columbia. …we would like to recognize Minister Ravi Parmar for the important role he has been entrusted with as the Minister of Forests. We look forward to working in collaboration with him, his cabinet colleagues to continue to invest in B.C.’s forests. …Based on the recent provincial election campaign, one of the patches of common ground for British Columbians is the desire to invest in the long-term health and resilience of our forests. …former Premier John Horgan was a man who could find common ground with almost anyone. Through humour, humility, vulnerability, Star Trek quotes, but mostly humour, he connected with people across the province and across party lines.
