There is still no word on how Nova Scotia plans to implement a key recommendation from the Lahey report that would see Crown land designated into zones, as advocates express frustration over a lack of answers and action from the government.
Nova Scotia Premier Iain Rankin has said the province is working to expedite implementation of the forestry report s recommendations, an effort that included the introduction of two pieces of legislation last week.
