TROUBLE IN THE HEADWATERS

Join us for an eye opening film and an important discussion about forestry and flooding in BC. Trouble in the Headwaters is a hard-hitting documentary that investigates the 2018 Grand Forks flood and reveals the connection to clearcut logging in the headwaters of the Kettle River Basin. The film follows Dr. Younes Alila, a professor of forest hydrology at the University of British Columbia, and two retired loggers as they travel through the Kettle River Watershed and unravel the science connecting industrial clearcutting and the growing risk of flooding, landslides and drought across British Columbia. Interact with the filmmaker, Daniel Pierce, and the main subject, Dr. Younes Alila, as well as local experts after the film.

PANELISTS:

Dr. Younes Alila, Professor of forest hydrology, University of British Columbia

Mike Morris, Former BC Solicitor General and Minister of Public Safety

Michelle Connolly, Conservation North

Daniel J. Pierce, Film Director
