This short film, directed, produced, shot and edited by Daniel J. Pierce, covers the connection between the 2018 Grand Forks flood and forestry in the watershed. Retired logger, Stan Swinarchuk, talks about the problems with forestry in the Boundary.
The City of Grand Forks, BC has been inundated by monstrous spring floods three times in the past four years. Many say climate change is the main culprit. But some residents and experts believe clear-cut logging in the watersheds is to blame. Grand Forks resident Jennifer Houghton recounts her harrowing experience with the floods and connects the dots between clear-cut logging and disrupted hydrology.
