Dear [recipient position will go here] [recipient name will go here],

Your Letter *

I applaud the government’s recent decisions to swiftly implement all 14 recommendations from the Old Growth Strategic Review and accept the request by the Pacheedaht, Ditidaht and Huu-ay-aht First Nations for a two year moratorium on old growth logging in the Fairy Creek watershed and Central Walbran areas.

However, this government has made similar promises in the past and I’m writing to implore you to follow through on these commitments. In addition to the commitments already made, I’m asking you to:

- Extend and mandate a provincial moratorium to cover all at risk old growth logging activities in British Columbia to allow time for a new strategy to be developed and implemented;

- Enact comprehensive legislation to preserve and enhance BC’s biodiversity including the protection, management and restoration of forests, grasslands, agricultural lands and wetlands leading to greater capacity to sequester and store vast amounts of carbon emissions.

Further, I believe the B.C. Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples Act should be foundational to the commitments stated above.

By protecting endangered old-growth forests, restoring intact forests and reforming forest management, your government can support the health and safety of communities and mitigate climate related disasters before the climate crisis worsens.

Sincerely,
[your name will go here] [your location will go here]
