I was so naive when I thought that posting all articles about Bryce Casavant Law Court Case Winning would be a quick thing. One of those, you go in and out of the website, and it’s done. I was thinking 1 hour, 2 max.
So four hours later and I realize that the articles I collected about Bryce Casavant Law Court Case Winning were just a small percentage of the media coverage he actually got.
Many of Bryce Casavant Law Court Case Winning Articles are listed in this blog. Read them all with an open heart because what he accomplished for wildlife is nothing short of a miracles that took 5 long stressful years for him to accomplish.
Bears Matter wants to thank and acknowledge the reporters that wrote these articles, hoping that their interest toward wildlife protection and conservation will continue to grow, inspired by Bryce’s example.
Thank you Leyland Cecco, Stephan Labbe’, Clare Henning, Emily Lazatin, Joanna Chiu, Alyse Kotyk, Ben Bulmer, Charlie Mitchell, Hilary Hanson.

Ex-B.C. conservation officer fired for refusing to kill bear cubs wins dismissal case
Posted June 9, 2020 1:35 pm
A B.C. conservation officer who made headlines in 2015 after he was fired for refusing to kill two bear cubs has won his fight over his dismissal in the province’s top court.
