The BC Forest History Association is pleased to host its final speaker of 2025: Keith Moore, RPF, a longtime resident of Haida Gwaii and a respected leader in forest policy, regulation, and certification. Tonight, December 16th, 7:00 pm on Zoom.

In his presentation, “How the Long History of Forest Practices Regulation in BC Became a Key Part in a Recent BC Supreme Court Case,” Keith will explore how decades of statutory and voluntary forest practices regulation in British Columbia shaped the context and outcome of a recent court decision. Drawing on a career that spans research, policy development, enforcement, and auditing, he brings a rare, end-to-end perspective on how forest regulation actually works in practice.

Keith began his career with the Ministry of Forests Research Branch, followed by ten years with the BC Ministry of Environment. He was the inaugural Chair of the BC Forest Practices Board (1995–2000) and later became deeply involved with Forest Stewardship Council certification, conducting audits in forest regions around the world. Based in Daajing Giids, he continues to work with the Council of the Haida Nation and internationally through Assurance Services International.
