It’s not safe forever: Clayoquot Sound logging protesters reflect on 25 years

CHEK TV has done a news piece about the 25-year anniversary of the launch of the Clayoquot Sound mass blockades, where 12,000 people took part in protests near Tofino in Nuu-chah-nulth territory starting on July 5, 1993. The story includes comments by former Friends of Clayoquot Sound campaign organizer Valerie Langer and Ancient Forest Alliance executive director Ken Wu, along with footage of recent, destructive old-growth logging in the Nahmint Valley.
