The town of Clearwater recently held a Healthy Forest, Healthy Community meeting on a Saturday, January 19th. According to the forestry consultant the meeting was one of the best attended in the province - over 60 concerned citizens!
I found it profoundly ironic that one of the main points identified for positive economic change for Clearwater was to apply pressure on politicians. All the local politicians were formally introduced by the facilitator.
You know what's laughable?
The future MLA for Kamloops-North Thompson, Kathy Kendall, was in attendance. She wasn't even acknowledged! Thanks for attending to find out about our community concerns.
Terry Lake, the outgoing MLA, was nowhere to be seen. Shame.
