Meares Island is located in clayoquot Sound, near Tofino, BC. These old-growth trees were saved from industrial clear-cutting by the Elders of the Tla-o-qui-aht nation who bodily blocked the bulldozers.
Several Hundred people were arrested in Canada's largest Civil Disobedience protest, trying to protect the forests of Clayoquot Sound. A good part was saved.
