The great watersheds of British Columbia's west coast are changing... forever.
This will affect salmon, grizzlies, other wildlife, and local economies that depend on them. It will affect your powe bill and allow foreign control of our rivers.
Government and industry claim it's all "green"...
Come out and see for yourself.
