My MO is different from looking to courts and legislators for social justice. Our woodland owner organization is comprised of conservatives, liberals and everything in between. When legislatures don't represent the will of the people, we make new policy from a popular will; we organize a community of interest.

Our provincial government delegated all private lands responsibilities to our organization, arguably the most radical institutional change on the continent. We're fastest-growing in sustainable forestry in Canada, to the world's most responsible standard, and third and fourth in growth and size in North America.

So, yes, this "progressive" action comes from a shared interest of conservatives, liberals, socialists and the politically unattached. Give people a break, tell the truth, and they work together, harmoniously and productively. Key is peerless communications, cooperation and no side games.
