B.C. tied closely to forestry: Thomson

B.C.’s minister of forests, lands and natural resource operations said he looks forward to championing rural B.C. Last month during the Union of B.C. Municipalities Conference in Vancouver, Premier Christy Clark added rural development to Minister Steve Thomson’s portfolio. “She’s chosen our ministry to help lead that by adding it to our portfolio,” Thomson told the Tribune Advisor. “With the current structure we have in our ministry, we are in and around so many communities across the province and understand the importance of resource development to those local economies.”
