Corporate interests have guided this industry for too long. Nobody—from environmentalists to forestry companies—is happy with what’s happening with British Columbia’s forests. There is a cost to this conflict.

Mill closures, drought, climate change, tariffs, and wildfires have shaken workers and families, and devastated towns and ecosystems. BC’s forestry industry cannot continue to function the way it has, and we cannot risk another short-term fix.

By delivering 30,000 affordable homes through Cooperation and Responsible Government Accord, the B.C. Greens are helping ensure the Rental Protection Fund keeps existing homes affordable and people rooted in their communities. This is how we prevent displacement and make sure no one is left behind.

The federal airport lands at YYJ could play a critical role in delivering affordable housing for local workers (and seniors) in a manner that respects the environment and community plans. I’ve been assured by the Minister of Housing that the new advisor will seriously consider the YYJ lands.

North Saanich urgently needs affordable housing, and I hope the special advisor delivers real results. I’m encouraged by the municipality’s willingness to work with the province to increase housing supply. This advisor creates an opportunity for faster input and better outcomes—but it must deliver.
