On March 8 Western Forest Products is putting 5200 acres of private lands up for sale from Sooke to Jordan River – our Wild Coast. Let’s help protect waterfront lands at Sandcut Beach all the way to the surfing beaches at Jordan River, the Sooke Potholes lands and other extensive forest lands and watersheds in the area. First Nations sacred sites are at risk from development.

The provincial government now has an opportunity to support UBC’s proposal to purchase these lands as an educational and research forest. The CRD must be supported in their efforts to protect these lands.

On Wednesday March 3rd, come have a say in the future of our coast!

The event will take place from 7pm – 9pm at SJ Willis Auditorium

Speakers include:
Chief Gordon Planes – T’Sou-ke First Nation
Arnie Campbell – Otter Point and Shirley Residents and Ratepayers Association
Terri Alcock - Shirley Education and Action Society
Calvin Sandborn - Legal Director, UVic Environmental Clinic
Vicky Husband - Spokesperson, Jordan River Steering Committee
