Butternut trees are on the…

Butternut trees are on the endangered list and thus need protection. Although the permit states it will protect as many as possible I believe this is defined enough and leaves a lot of room for interpretation. Recently in my neighbourhood a private contractor was hired to cut trees in preparation for the Trent canal repairs - instructions were to leave as many trees as possible - this resulted in a clear cut - apparently the term "as many as possible and doesn't mean the same for everyone.

Please protect the Butternut tree.
