Meeting With Ministry of Environment and Climate Change Assistant Deputy Minister

This week, Chuck Zuckerman, Gerry Paille, and Jesse Zeman met with Ministry of Environment and Climate Change Assistant Deputy Minister, the Chief of the Conservation Officer Service, and B.C. Parks staff.
 
The BCWF team raised getting prescribed burns back in Provincial parks and Protected areas across the province. They also raised some site-specific issues in the Northeast where burns have been funded, but haven’t been implemented.
They raised public access to public resources and identified locations where public access has been reduced particularly in the Northeast and are optimistic these issues will be resolved.
 
Issues related to unauthorized livestock grazing inside provincial parks and protected areas were also flagged. The BCWF provided solutions to all three issues and we are optimistic there will be movement on these issues going forward. The ADM committed to regular meetings with the BCWF.
