Show Notes
Residents in Kingston, Ontarios Collins Bay area are rallying against the clear-cutting of Mile Square Forest, a woodland within the citys urban boundary. The landowner claims a farming exemption under the citys tree bylaw, but neighbors argue this exemption is being misused as the land is not suited for real farming and is home to a rare alvar ecosystem and federally protected woodpecker nests. The community is concerned about losing vital habitat and has called for a full environmental review to protect the remaining green space.
