BC’s Big, and Now Secret, Natural Gas Giveaway | The Tyee (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In 2019, Shell Canada, a subsidiary of one of the world’s biggest oil and gas companies, paid the British Columbia government not one dollar in royalty payments despite producing 175 billion cubic feet of natural gas. The Tyee learned of Shell’s nonpayment after reviewing records that the government fought hard to withhold and relinquished only as a date for a formal appeal under B.C.’s Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act drew near. B.C.’s oil and gas resources are publicly owne
Will BC’s Land Zoning Plan Protect More Forests? | The Tyee (opens the original)
Read excerpt
As the provincial government advances plans to carve British Columbia’s lands into zones where logging and other industrial activities are permitted or barred, a former longtime public servant says he is struggling to not be cynical about what could lie ahead.

But what makes this wildfire season so different is its ferocity. The Bald Range fire that burned close to Skalbania’s home became a 5,000-hectare monster in just hours, forcing 20,000 residents in Summerland and nearby Peachland to evacuate. Despite re
Private Gates Blocking the Walbran Upset Many. Not This First Nation | The Tyee (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The British Columbia government’s decision to grant a logging company permits to install three gates blocking access to the Walbran Valley’s old-growth forests was almost certain to draw criticism from environmental organizations. The Walbran lies on Crown or publicly owned land on southern Vancouver Island and is right next door to the Carmanah Valley, which nearly 40 years ago inspired B.C.’s growing environmental movement to ramp up efforts to protect more of the province’s steadily dwindling
