B.C. is exporting its forests, its jobs and its future!
On April 9, the Global Yuquot prepared for its third export this year—carrying 35,000 tonnes of unprocessed logs from Vancouver Island straight to Japan and China. Meanwhile, mills across B.C. are shutting down.
Despite government promises to build a value-added forest sector and create more B.C. forestry jobs, raw log exports have increased—taking the jobs with them.
In 2024, B.C. exported 2.75 million cubic metres of raw logs, up nearly 9% from 2023.
And now, B.C.’s struggling forest industry could soon face another blow: the U.S. plans to double softwood lumber duties to nearly 35%.
At the same time, less than 1% of B.C.’s old-growth forests remain—and they’re still falling.
This crisis is a chance for Premier Eby to finally reform our failing forestry system, reduce dependence on the U.S., and secure a future for both communities and forests.
Take action today!
Contact Premier David Eby and Minister Ravi Parmar and demand bold action for B.C.’s forests, communities, and future:
✅ Protect old-growth forests for future generations—save what little is left.
✅ Stop shipping raw logs overseas—keep good jobs in B.C.
✅ Reform B.C. Timber Sales with a long-term vision that puts communities and ecosystems first.

Let’s raise our voices while there’s still something left to protect.

🐟 Wild salmon desperately need our help, and with a Canadian federal election just around the corner it’s time we speak up loudly for salmon.
Don’t let the government backtrack on their commitments! It’s been almost 1 year since the Canadian Federal government promised they would phase out open-net pen salmon farming by 2029, and since then there have been multiple incidences at fish farms in British Columbia.
Each delay means more disasters.
You can keep the conversation going by voting for our very loud campaign from last year.
✔️ Let’s make F*Off the number one Canadian Ad campaign of 2024!

Colossal Biosciences is working to "de-extinct" the dire wolf—an Ice Age predator that vanished over 10,000 years ago. But let’s be clear: these animals are not true dire wolves. They are genetically modified grey wolves, engineered to express dire wolf genes and traits. It’s not resurrection—it’s rebranding.
The idea may sound like sci-fi made real, but it raises urgent, real-world questions.
🐺 Today, wolves occupy just 67% of their historic range worldwide. In North America, grey wolves continue to be vilified, hunted, trapped, and poisoned under the guise of “wildlife management” or “pest control.” And in British Columbia, hunting forums are already buzzing with speculative talk about one day hunting these so-called “dire wolves.”
❓So we have to ask:
Before we "resurrect" apex predators for curiosity, legacy, or spectacle, shouldn`t we first prove we can coexist with the ones we have now?
Relying on the idea that we can bring species back through technology risks undermining the critical and urgent drive to protect them in the first place—an attitude that could drive extinction rather than prevent it. Conservation isn`t just about saving species. It’s about changing the systems—and mindsets—that led to their decline in the first place. Until we do that, we risk repeating history... only this time, with bigger teeth.

🐟 Facts Matter!
Why does Pacific herring matter—and what does ‘the science’ really say?
These #BIGlittlefish are the cornerstone of B.C.’s marine ecosystems, but industrial fishing, climate change, and poor policy are pushing herring to further decline.
Our newly updated Pacific herring resource list lays out the facts—clear, concise, and backed by research.
