Happy to see the start of a highway safety system to keep people and wildlife safer and more connected along BC Highway 3. Last holiday season elk and travellers had challenges in this section, now, safer with underpasses and fences. Go team. @Y2Y_Initiative @TranBC @Rob_Fleming

STOKED to see a major collaborative project come to life. Reconnecting the Rockies:BC broke ground w/ 2km of wildlife fencing along Hwy 3 this fall. HUGE thanks to partners helping to improve wildlife connectivity and survival, and motorist safety. Deer already using underpass 😍

Solutions are desperately in the Inland Temperate Rainforest -- some of the rarest old growth on the planet. Without interim protections for old growth forests, options are decreasing every day.

An aerial view of 40 hectares of old growth deferral being actively logged up Downie Creek North of Revelstoke.

The @bcndp promised to protect old growth but every day ancient trees are falling across the province. Talk and log cannot continue

@JonesSebastian We ran into Bob (and Caroline) Hayes camping in Grasslands NP in Saskatchewan in June. Lovely folks!
