Campaign for a $40 million per year BC Park Acquisition Fund Launched
This week the Ancient Forest Alliance has launched a campaign, including a new petition, the distribution of 50,000 new brochures into key communities, and outreach to other conservation and recreation groups, calling on the BC Liberal government to establish a dedicated “BC Park Acquisition Fund” of at least $40 million per year. The fund would raise $400 million over 10 years, enabling the timely purchase of significant tracts of endangered private lands of high conservation, scenic, and recreation value to add to BC’s parks and protected areas system.
