As the only Atlantic Canadian member of the Standing Committee of Environment and Sustainable Development it’s up to me to stand up for home.
I know so many of you want to make sure that the Blue Mountain Birch Cove Lakes area is protected. And I’ve done my best to bring your voices to Parliament.
I was pleased to have Dr. Chris Miller of CPAWS as a witness last week. And even more pleased that he brought up the Blue Mountain Birch Cove area. I’m pleased that I could ask on record what Dr. Miller felt was needed from the federal government to get the ball rolling on the park.
Even better- I got to ask Parks Canada on record if they’d consider looking into making the area an Urban Wilderness Park.
So, what do you think?
