Letter-Whistler Blackcomb and business groups support heli-skiing in Garibaldi Park (2013-10-25)

Letter, dated October 25, 2013, from David Brownlie of Whistler Blackcomb complaining to the Minister of Jobs, Tourism and Skill Training that the draft master plan amendment to Garibaldi Park for the Spearhead Range is "inconsistent with building a world class tourism brand and creating jobs" in the province. The concern was that heli-skiing in the Spearhead Range would be discontinued. Mr. Brownlie claims that heli-skiing in the park sets WB apart from its competition, provides jobs and public safety.
