BC forestry industry "in a tail spin"

BC finance minister, Colin Hansen, has just released a report showing that forestry revenues in BC are down by 36 per cent.

Hansen was quoted in the Tyee's new election blog "The Hook" as saying: "The downturn we are seeing in the forest sector is unprecedented. Since 1993 it has never even come close to being that low."

The pine beetle, sub-prime crisis, high dollar and a series of forestry strikes in BC have all contributed to the downturn which the NDP finance critic Bruce Ralston characterized the industry as being "in a tail spin".

Great Bear Deal is Defeat for Environmentalism

Independent newspapers such as The Dominion are vital if democracy and true citizenship are to be saved in this age of awful concentration of corporate medias bent on formatting our opinion to serve the powerful interests which control such media. We as Haitians are especially grateful to independent media for having helped disentangle the web of lies in which the corporate media are still trying to smother our struggle for freedom and self-determination.

--Patrick Elie, founder of SOS Haiti and former Secretary of State for National Defense in Haiti

About the Dominion

The Dominion is a monthly paper published by an incipient network of independent journalists in Canada. It aims to provide accurate, critical coverage that is accountable to its readers and the subjects it tackles. Taking its name from Canada's official status as both a colony and a colonial force, the Dominion examines politics, culture and daily life with a view to understanding the exercise of power.
