   #BritishColumbia #forestry practices came under #InternationalScrutiny after a #BBC #documentary highlighted #WoodPellets being burned for power in the #UK.

   The documentary was not broadcast in #Canada. Hansen said the reason B.C.’s wood pellet industry is a focus in #UnitedKingdom is the #Drax Power Station in #England.

     #BCNDP is still lying about this. Former #Forestry minister lied through her entire time in that portfolio. She approved more #glysophate spraying #ecocide in #BritishColumbia & told people it's safe. She agreed to help #JohnHorgan commit many #CrimesAgainstHumanity.

     #BCgovernment is still #greenwashing & #whitewashing on #deforestation of #OldGrowth & #logging clearcuts are still happening.

     Drax owns seven #PelletMills in #BritishColumbia after acquiring BC’s largest #WoodPellets producer, #PinnacleRenewableEnergy Inc in 2021.

     This analysis focuses on north central BC, where all material feeding #Drax’s pellet mills originates from #PrimaryForest, whether it arrives directly from #logging operations or byproduct from sawmills. Majority of commercial logging taking place in BC is of #OldGrowth #forests.

     #BCNDP #ChiefForester Diane Nicholls attended a #WoodPellet #TradeShow in 2019. After supporting the industry’s controversial growth in BC, she left the ministry of forests for a job with the UK company that now dominates the new industry in #BritishColumbia.
