Hi All, I am learning that some 50 farm users of river water are being
restricted from access ...which will devastate their crops and
income/sustainability. What do others know about this? Is this a policy
arena that BCFSN needs to have a voice in? Food and farm sustainability
needs to have high priority over perhaps swimming pools, car washes,
lawns...etc. Fish are vital too, so how can this climate change consequence
be best dealt with?

Can we get a discussion going on this...ideas etc?
