正文(英文) | News releaseFebruary 25, 2021 – Victoria, British Columbia Canada and British Columbia have a long history of shared conservation goals and taking leadership together on climate change, environmental protection, and conservation. Now the two governments are enhancing this shared commitment by launching the development of a new bilateral Nature Agreement to strengthen conservation province wide. As part of this effort, the two governments are announcing immediate action to support ongoing efforts for the recovery of the Spotted Owl, and pilot projects using new approaches to protecting species at risk and enhancing biodiversity. The two governments will explore new ways to protect and restore habitat and strengthen ecosystem resilience to climate change. As part of our commitments to reconciliation, Canada and British Columbia will continue to work with Indigenous Peoples in these efforts. The Minister of Environment and Climate Change, the Honourable Jonathan Wilkinson, along with the Honourable George Heyman, Minister of Environment and Climate Change Strategy and the Honourable Katrine Conroy, Minister of Forests, Lands, Natural Resource Operations and Rural Development, are committed to a target date for the completion of this agreement within one year. The Nature Agreement will build on collaborative measures already in place such as the Pathway to Canada Target 1 and the Pan-Canadian Approach to Transforming Species at Risk Conservation in Canada. It will include recovery measures for the Spotted Owl, including an updated recovery strategy for the species, and a strategy for the reintroduction of captive Spotted Owls to the wild. The remaining wild owls are currently nesting within Wildlife Habitat Areas, specifically protected for Spotted Owls as part of British Columbia’s longstanding efforts to recover the species. Further, Ministers Heyman and Conroy are seeking a deferral of timber harvesting in the Spuzzum and Utzlius Watersheds. Quotes
