wow. 170,000 cash security deposit for 6 months use for a light truck... that is an epic closure right there.

"Among other demands, this template calls for cash security of $170,000 to be posted for the simple use of a light truck for a period of six months on one resource road"


there goes the neighbour hood

Express your outrage to Ministers Coleman and Neufeld:
rich.coleman.mla@leg.bc.ca

The critic for Forest is Bob Simpson: bob.simpson.mla@leg.bc.ca
and you should let your MLA know your thoughts. Find their email here:

That is complete fxxxing NONSENSE
 
Welcome to Beautiful, Natural and friendly BC, please stay off the grass, unless a damage deposit of $1000.00 has been paid. Do not look at the majestic mountains, unless a environmental enjoyment fee of $200.00 has been paid. Do not go hiking, walking, camping, or pic-nic-ing unless a $5000.00 damage/enjoyment fee has been paid, as a matter of fact, lock yourself inside your house and never come out - permissible only if a $10,000.00 "the right to be alive" fee has been paid on top of regular and constantly increasing taxes has been paid. Please be advised that we will soon be incorporating a oxygen tax for the air you breathe.
 
That is s***ty, and maybe it is a sign of bad times ahead. I haven't read the link but a resource road is technically a private road owned by the land use licensee. They already place gates on these roads, or permanently deactivate them when the resource is extracted. While they have equipment in a valley they don't want some ecoterrorist or drunken vandal torching or sabotaging their stuff. OTOH, a forest service road is a public road, just like any highway. But in the end we will all lose if our access is restricted to main roads and a look but don't touch approach to our backcountry areas.
 
Resource Road Act shelved

I just heard from a reliable source that Bill C-30, the Resource Road Act, has been pulled from the table. Rumour has it that the Bill won't be introduced again before the May 2009 provincial election.

I'll post more as soon as I can find 'official' confirmation that the Bill has been shelved.
 
Bill 30 information website

Bill 30 will not be tabled again during the Spring sitting of the BC Legislature. This gives a temporary reprieve to better organize opposition, as it will surely be tabled again sometime in the future.

Check out this newly created information/action website. Everyone needs to take some kind of action. If high fuel prices don't kill us, then we may not have any accessible roads left to get away on.

Okay you thread hackers, let's get back to topic. Bill has started a chitchatchitchata thread in the member only section for the daily feed.
