Here in BC, I remember when a sheet of 1/2 inch plywood cost $20. Then our government sold off all our resources during the privatization stage of globalization, giving foreign companies the rights to all of our forests, and the wood prices started going up and up and up because it was being shipped overseas to be processed before coming back to be sold. We lost a lot of jobs in the forest and wood-milling industry to outsiders because of that. Now you can't even go out and cut the deadwood on the ground for firewood without being fined.

This is so true.

Now you can't even go out and cut the deadwood on the ground for firewood without being fined.

These jerks think they have the right to control everything. Telling us we can't have dead wood, should do laundry less often while they're using 11 million gallons of water a month growing lush lawns on their desert properties. They truly believe we're imbeciles.

I went camping by myself up a logging road a few years back, and a forestry guy who was driving by in a truck saw me out on the creek out of view of my campsite and stopped to toss my stuff around in order to let me know I wasn't welcome, even though it's public land. They think they own it all.
