I can’t help but boil about this development. Always the same, more and more live in houses in subdivisions that were once forested.

I visited the TM site last week out of curiousity. I don’t know who is the developer but this is a special nasty one. And if construction starts I can imagine there will be dust and noise from the construction and construction traffic.

I recognized that trees don’t grow to the sky, so I support selective logging (the removal of a proportion of standing trees based on specified limits of minimum tree size and/or minimum large trees that must remain) but what TM did is clear cutting of the worst.

This area was precious, irreplaceable and a once pristine delicate environment.

There are over 6 billion people on this rock with more coming every day. We can not continue to destroy our environment, create gravel pits and cut trees without consequences.

Trepanier Manor is a typical development, cut trees and tear things up for a profit …..debbie

We really don’t have much control over what people do on private land, but crown land should be protected. The public is always led to believe by the Ministry of Forests our crown land is managed and protected by them. Reality is they turn a blind eye at this blatant and others complete disregard for the law. The average person would be prosecuted to the highest degree if they logged out of bounds as was done here, however big business, big money and big licencees get away with this everyday of the year with minor slaps on the wrist or nothing at all.

It’s shame, how stupid are these people, we’ll get landslides, a new ravine will occur and the erosion will continue. Don’t trust developers, they never learn from mistakes.

You have right.
And it is a public hotel later. It’s not a guy with a private property.
I protest strongly that they have surveillance cameras at the Trepanier Manor property.

After I saw the pictures I must say it´s really a shame! It´s important that everyone rethinks his behavior regarding the nature. We must save the environment for our children and our children’s children. Stop this destructive exploitation!
