Can somebody please explain to me why we need an American organization like Tread Lightly in Alberta?
The point is (I believe) to open up more land as designated off-highway area in this province, and protect what is already there.
If this is what we are looking for - the organization that has the final say in these matters is the Alberta SRD. The informed realize that we (4x4 clubs and organizations) need to work WITH the SRD, and within their rules and mindset.
The SRD has their own campaign, similar to "Tread Lightly". It is called Respect the Land.
The whole Tread Lightly thing irks the SRD guys I know, as they know it is from the States, and most of them think it isn't a "made in Alberta" solution. If you follow the tread lightly principles to the letter - none of us would ever go wheeling in this province.
So - would somebody please explain to me how Tread Lightly is going to keep land open in this province? I really want to know - because from where I am standing, membership in Tread Lightly is contentious with the very government bodies I am currently working with.
