How to Stop the Destructive Development
on the Juan de Fuca Trail
by Zoe Blunt
The proposal to build a huge resort with hundreds of cabins, roads, and septic fields
alongside the Juan de Fuca trail has a lot of people seeing red. What should we do? Here's some ways to push back.
- Come to the Rally for the Juan de Fuca Trail this WEDNESDAY, Feb 23 at Centennial Square at noon. Check it out on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=110990845645833&ref=ts 600 people have already signed up!
- Bring all your friends to the next public information session, 7 pm March 3 at Edward Milne school in Sooke. Help organize ride-shares. Â
- Join a weekend trip to the Marine Trail properties.
We've been scouting and photographing the property boundaries and
survey markers, and we've already forced the developer to concede parts of the trail. RSVP to

- Arrange a meetup
with your friends, neighbours, and fellow nature-lovers. I'll bring the
latest info, and we can split the cost of a hall if needed.
- Everyone can write a letter to the land-use
decision-makers. The Wilderness Committee has created a great page to
send your concerns to the people who need to hear it. http://ow.ly/3ZFl9
- Send a copy to the Victoria Times Colonist and the Vancouver Sun.

- Finally,
sign our online petition and take our survey:
http://WildCoast.ca/juan-de-fuca. We'll be making a report to the CRD on values and grievances about land use.
Forest Action Network is the south island volunteer group that took the city of Langford to court over the destructive development at Bear Mountain.
We're proudly grassroots and non-profit with zero overhead (no office,
no paid staff). We get no corporate or government funding and we supportall action to defend the land.
Thank you!
