There is a rich old-growth forest with 18 species-at-risk, right within the city of Ottawa, Canada's capital. The City is now building a road through the heart of this unique ecosystem, and on July 19 a developer plans to start clear-cutting trees to build a subdivision! But the developer made an agreement with the City that it would fulfill 89 conditions for Site Plan approval, including a Tree Preservation Plan and an archaeological plan. We are calling on the City to make sure all required conditions are met before a single tree is disturbed. Ultimately we want to stop all construction and protect this pristine area.
