CONVENING FOR ACTION ON VANCOUVER ISLAND: Fresh Water Sustainability is in Our Hands! – the theme for the Dialogue in Nanaimo (June 2010)
“We have to move beyond the technical and the engagement of local governments towards a universal commitment to sustainability on Vancouver Island. Taking the greater context, we are now ready to take the next step towards engaging the public, business, schools and community organizations in a united front to play their respective role in sustainability initiatives based upon the fundamental requirement of water sustainability,” stated Eric Bonham. “Why not follow the leadership of Chemainus,’the little town that did’, and expand the vision to ‘the island that did’.”
