Northern conservation could be paralyzed during Environment Canada review

Posted by Tyler Kinch on September 21st, 2007

“The existence of a review or a restructuring couldn’t happen at a worse time, when we’re trying to accelerate and embed conservation preparedness into northern development plans,” said Pete Ewins of the World Wildlife Fund.

    What the Cons did to the wildlife is sickening. Do they really care about anything, or are they in debt?
