Hope all folks concerned with the BC Timber Sales’ activities and the enormous logging issue facing our community took part in the Zoom meeting scheduled for Thursday, June 25. We await the findings and results of this session. 

After travelling the ferries for more than 20 years, I tried flying Harbour Air, return from Sechelt, for the first time. Our small dog Sol had a medical emergency and it was definitely the right choice. Saved his eye and my sanity. We were both treated with great kindness and care. Flew again for his checkup. Five star all the way. Contact me with your news at dilysanne@hotmail.com for the Friday edition of Coast Reporter.
