Dear Editor,
I'm disappointed that Whistler doesn't understand the importance of maintaining functioning forest ecosystems especially with ever increasing stresses and biological diversity under extreme threat. How you got sucked into taking the fall for our dysfunctional industrial forest practice is a mystery to me despite my cynicism toward the real commitment of the business community toward true sustainability.
I wish good luck and my support to those organizing a consumer boycott. For God's sake call off the chainsaws before they rip the heart out of your children's heritage and of all the plants and animals that call these magnificent forests home.
