A Society's Act Review Underway! Please explore and comment.

A website/blog has been set up at http://societyactreview.wordpress.com or www.yourtake.ca by United Community Services Co-op and others in the local NPO sector to provide a location for NPOs in BC to collaborate on providing input to the Ministry of Finance's first phase of its review of the BC Society Act.
 
Please visit this site and provide whatever materials and input you can to this collective, and collaborative initiative; and, to respond directly to the Ministry of Finance at  http://www.fin.gov.bc.ca/society_act_review.htm.
 
Time is short since the deadline for submitting input to the Ministry of Finance on this first phase of the review is April 1.
 

Latest Data From Spectacle Lake Wetland has shown higher levels leaving than levels entering. This is not indicitive of poor performance but of lag time due to lower flows moving through very slowly. The higher levels from an earlier reading take so long to move through the wetland they are leaving at a time when lower levels have been recorded entering.
