It claims staff failed to cite “credible science” for why the removal is necessary, and made “no attempt to employ … less-extreme methods” or “obtain corroborating opinions” from experts other than Blackwell.Blue Jays’ Bo Bichette going viral for openly flirting with trade: ‘I want to win’It also claims Blackwell offered “defective” assessments and is both overseeing the project and profiting from the logging operation.
