An article by four UVic professors in support of the EDPA:
Garry Oak Ecosystems: Saanich on the Right Track "We believe a different view is needed to realize the bold environmental vision that Saanich embraces. Nature is found in so many places, sometimes fragmented. It’s often degraded by heavy use and invasive species, but when the elements of native biodiversity are there, ecosystems can be restored. Protecting and connecting these fragments of nature, which is what the EDPA encourages, will result in greater adaptive capacity for the ecosystems of Saanich to cope with the uncertainties that climate change and continuing development hold." Saanich is hosting the second Town Hall meeting to hear citizens' views on the EDPA. We urge you to attend and lend a voice of support for the EDPA.
Doors open at 6 p.m. on February 11th. We encourage you to arrive early, and be prepared to speak, even very briefly. Pearkes Recreation Centre Field House 3100 Tillicum Road Thank you! |
