Should the people who can afford lawyers control who gets to speak out for the public good? We don't think so. Campaigner Eric Reder presented on Bill 23 to the Manitoba legislature on Oct. 8th, and this is just some of what he told them. Catch the whole presentation here: youtu.be/YwPMcBiI2vk

Since 2022 we’ve been working to survey potential old-growth forests in the 65% of Algonquin Provincial Park that is open to logging. We found trees up to 427 years old, more than 3 times older than the park itself. Most are unprotected, and one stand is already on the chopping block. #OldGrowth

We have a special present for B.C. Forest Minister, Ravi Parmar 🎁 This week, our volunteers got crafty with cards that call out Minister Parmar's misleading claims about #oldgrowth logging and demand real action to protect these irreplaceable forests.

Hot new trend in BC politics: announce a forestry review, wait, announce another review, repeat. Politicians call it governance. We call it "talk and log" 🪓🌲 On the ground? Just stumps and vanishing habitat for endangered species. The reviews aren't saving the trees. #oldgrowth #bcpoli

🐣In just a few weeks piping plovers will arrive at Wasaga Beach to seek out suitable nesting sites to raise their babies! With all provincial protections scrapped, it falls on Wasaga Beach mayor and council to commit to a strong plan to protect them. Tell them: WildernessCommittee.org/WasagaBeach

Spotted owls (and other at-risk species) can’t survive without old-growth forests. So why is the Carney government handing $1.2B to the forest industry in the same year it finally released a recovery plan that requires protecting old-growth habitat? These two things don’t add up.

Since Manitobans elected a new government in 2023, we’ve seen an INCREASE in the number of mining claims in provincial parks. #Whiteshell #Manitoba Write your letter and tell Manitoba’s elected officials to #EndParkMining at wildernesscommittee.org/EndParkMining

Parmar's new bill is old news - and like usual, it's bad news for forests. 🌲 Bill 14 is nothing new. It's the same 90s playbook: log more, log faster, make money for the big guys and leave communities in the dust. #OldGrowth #BCpoli

#Oilandgas produce 1/5th of B.C.’s carbon pollution, more than all other industries combined. Proposed LNG plants would more than double the sector’s pollution and make it impossible for B.C. to meet its #climate targets. #climatecrisis

Trump is “increasingly using desperate language and even considering desperate moves,” says @tparsi.bsky.social, because “according to the plan of those who sold this blockade idea to the Trump administration, Iran should have crumbled about 10 days ago, and it clearly has not happened."

Passengers aborted their first Waymo ride as the self-trapping robot couldn't find its way out of the neighborhood. Prob in AZ. Maybe a mapping/routing error or another loopy Waymo robot. Will Waymo send a roboherd to remap this maze or remove it from their drivable map? OP: tiktok.bojanglesbaby

Yes. Trains mostly reduce highway traffic. Most people live in cities. Local traffic is a bigger issue. Especially school commutes. This is a Texas school pickup line vs a bike bus on a protected cycling network.

We learned that Premier Ford has ordered civil servants to halt all existing and new Freedom of Information requests across all government ministries. Transparency and accountability are vital aspects of democracy, and if the Premier can’t accept this, then he should go back to his sticker company.
