But we also need to protect an open public process with specific dead- lines for making recommendations about our priceless environmental heritage. We need to maintain our quality of life. And we need to settle land claims. That's why the government of British Columbia has set up the Commission on Resources and Environment — CORE. Because it is time for leadership to work out our differences and to resolve the valley-by- valley conflicts over land use. Over the next few months CORE will be asking British Columbians to Participate in where to log and what to protect. CORE is your chance to help shape British Columbia’s future.
