A BC Conservative Party government would walk away from the province’s commitment to protect 30 per cent of its land base by 2030, party leader John Rustad told The Narwhal in an interview.
“The Conservatives would absolutely axe doing that,” Rustad said. “That’s nonsense.”
“It’s 30 per cent of all of our ecosystems,” he said. “What are we going to do if we have 30 per cent less food production? What are we going to do if we’re going to have 30 per cent less forestry production? What are we trying to achieve here as a province?”
I wonder how many people read this drivel and agree with it.
I know he is arguing in bad faith but someone tell Rustad that a plant based diet can reduce farming land use by 75%.
