- The draft agreement says…

- The draft agreement says the government has a “robust” system of laws to protect caribou, but this glosses over the fact that the forest industry is exempt from the Endangered Species Act. Logging is EXEMPT from recovery measures for at-risk forest-dwelling creatures that live in the boreal. << this needs to be removed logging protections should also be put in place

Caribou need a minimum of 65% of their habitat to be undisturbed to have a minimum 60% probability of survival << this needs to be committed too

The draft agreement references the Caribou Conservation Plan as proof of an effective policy regime, despite the fact that it has never implemented its insurance policy (which says that there must be sufficient evidence that a local caribou population is viable before new logging begins). << this needs to be corrected
