Rematriation background

Rematriation

The documentary Rematriation delves into the far-reaching impacts of logging on the environment, local communities, and economy, as it highlights the importance of preserving old-growth forests in British Columbia.

British Columbia's Old Growth forests, untouched since the last ice age, represent a crucial defense against climate change. Despite their scientific importance, mismanagement and greed have left less than 2.6% standing. The last uncut Old Growth watershed on Vancouver Island, Fairy Creek (Ada'itsx),is now the site of Canada's largest act of civil disobedience. The government's response to peaceful protesters has been alarming, with the RCMP aggressively dismantling and arresting them, despite conservation commitments.
