Kathie Wagar has indeed moved on and we are in the process of determining a path forward with regards to community development in the Northeast. We are certainly aware and understand the importance of access to Crown land to support community development. With regards to your letter and a recent referral request (Project IVo. 70284-73052) we have put this project on hold prior to a full review and we appreciate the concerns you have put forward and the residential plan in place. In regards to your request for a conditional reserve for Sites 3'4, 7 (this site will need to include deletion of the walking trail) and 10, we would be pleased to discuss this further with you about the type of reserve and more definition around site 10. We would also like to discuss with you and your staff the community's proposal for the sale of those lots. In our assessment we have noted the following and thus it would be beneficial to meet with you and your staff so that we all have' a clear understanding of the current state and the desires of your community.

Page 7 of 63 From: Bell, Pat [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Saturday, October 15, 2011 12:26 PM Subject: Top 10 for Oct 15, 2011 #431 Hi All I hope that you had a great Thanksgiving last weekend! Brenda and I had a great visit with her family on Pender Island and then drove home through Lillooet to pick up some grapes. My curiosity in the wine making business is getting the best of me with a total of about 160 bottles of Foch in various stages. The drive from Pemberton to Lillooet on the Duffy Lake road is much improved and if you are driving to Vancouver in the Spring/Summer/Fall I recommend the trip. It’s about ½ hour longer but the scenery is spectacular. We had lots of good news on the economic front this past week. Great export numbers, an approval for Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) exports and all of this coming hard on the heels of the new employment numbers. Next week we are back in the Legislature debating bills and setting the framework for our economy to grow. Have a great week! Pat http://www.patbellmla.bc.ca/ 1. Establishing a liquefied natural gas (LNG) industry in British Columbia moved a major step closer to reality with the National Energy Board (NEB) approving a 20‐year export licence for the Kitimat LNG facility – the first license of its kind in Canada. With the capacity to supply B.C.’s natural gas to new markets, demand will increase for the province’s energy resources and investment will be secured for ongoing development. Long‐ term jobs and business opportunities will be available for northeast communities. The Kitimat LNG facility itself will create approximately 1,500 person‐years of work during its construction phase and 120‐140 permanent positions once the terminal is in operation. The facility will be supplied natural gas from through the Pacific Trail Pipeline (PTP) (Summit Lake to Kitimat), which is expected to create another 1,500 construction jobs. 2. We are taking steps to further encourage business immigrants to invest in communities in regional B.C. through the BC Provincial Nominee Program. This is one of a series of steps as part of a commitment in ‘Canada Starts Here ‐ The BC Jobs Plan’ to attract more entrepreneurs from other countries to help create jobs regionally. The BC Provincial Nominee Program (BC PNP) provides accelerated permanent resident status to entrepreneurs and qualified workers based on labour market and economic development priorities. Among the changes, a new online investment matching service will link potential business immigrants to business opportunities in regions, with a focus on small business succession, an area of concern identified by the small business sector. In some cases, small business owners in smaller rural communities are facing challenges in finding people to buy Page 8 of 63 their companies when they are ready to retire. The service is scheduled to launch in November. 3. As I said earlier positive export numbers again for the month of August B.C.’s exports were worth $2.874 billion, an increase of $423 million or 17.3% compared with August 2011. The big winners were coal, energy, agriculture and equipment and machinery. 4. Another great month as well for lumber exports to China with our first 8 months of exports surpassing 3 billion board feet! This represents a 107% increase year to date over last year and a year to date value of ¾ of a billion dollars! 5. Korea and Taiwan are also looking very good with year over year growth of 26% and 37% respectively.

Also available on the Parliament of Canada Web Site at the following address: http://www.parl.gc.ca 2459 HOUSE OF COMMONS Friday, February 1, 2008 The House met at 10 a.m. increased consumption of fuel. In other words, the U.S. does not want to import any more oil as its consumption goes up. This increase is to be met by the production of corn and other commodities to make ethanol. Prayers What we are seeing is a dangerous precedent. Instead of encouraging a decrease in oil consumption on fossil fuels, the U.S. GOVERNMENT ORDERS government is encouraging an increase by growing corn. As we have Ï (1005) seen from the research, corn is not an efficient energy input-output [English] commodity. For every one unit of energy of corn, we may get 1.5 units of fuel, if that.
