Fairy Creek Watershed Blockade

Public Defenders of the Ancient Rainforest on Southern Vancouver Island have set up a series of logging road blockades to prevent TEAL-JONES from logging pristine watersheds in an area the BC Governments refers to as Tree Farm Licence 46. Ancient Temperate Forest has been reduced by logging to 2% of its original grandeur on Vancouver Island. The Fairy Creek Watershed remains pristine in the Southern region and is surrounded by valleys that have been devastated by the BC Government granting Tree Farm Licenses on Publicly and unceded territories of the Pacheedaht First Nation. Teal-Jones has been granted the exclusive right to log TFL 46 by Premier John Horgan's NDP government and recently won a court injunction to remove protests who have stopped road building and clear-cut logging the Fairy Creek Watershed for 7 months since August 2020. This is the final stand of ancient temperate rainforest that represents the will of the majority of British Columbians, Canadians, and people all around the world who want Old-Growth trees protected along with the complex ecosystems they are a part of on this planet.
