We$t coa$t for $ale

"If this goes ahead what quality of life are we going to have? Forty-five kilometers of urban sprawl from Sooke to Port Renfrew?" That was Vicki Husband yesterday, responding to a plan by Western Forest Products to sell ocean-front land to developers. B.C.'s minister of forests says the sale of 28,000 hectares of temperate rain forest is a done deal. Environmentalists are organizing to fight the plan anyway.
