 motivated cognition: unconscious tendency to fit processing of information to conclusions that suit some end or goal  biased information search: seeking out (or disproportionally attending to) evidence that is congruent rather than incongruent with the motivating goal  biased assimilation: crediting and discrediting evidence selectively in patterns that promote rather than frustrate the goal  identity-protective cognition: reacting dismissively to information the acceptance of which would experience dissonance or anxiety.  Daniel Kahan, “What Is Motivated Reasoning and How Does It Work?, Science and Religion Today May 4, 2011.What Is Motivated Reasoning and How Does It Work? 4

 “Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it” – George Santayana  Policy legacies of the past constrain present options September 10,

 BC’s forest tenure system is an anachronism.* With its origins in the mid- 20th century, it is the legacy of another era…and ill-equipped to deal with the realities of the 21st century, including the changing character of the timber resource, changing public attitudes towards and demands on crown forests… September 10, Anachronism: A thing belonging or appropriate to a period other than that in which it exists, esp. a thing that is conspicuously old- fashioned.

1. Allocation of “Crown” timber-- tenuretenure 2. Pricing -- stumpagestumpage 3. Rate of harvest – allowable annual cut (AAC) 4.

 BC forestry glossary glossary/Glossary.pdf glossary/Glossary.pdf September 10,

 “it is evident that forest tenures are means by which governments grant benefit streams from forest resources to individuals or organizations, subject to numerous operational rules that are conditions of holding tenure.  As such, we define forest tenures as property rights to forest resources granted to private firms by governments.  In Canada, Crown forest tenures that delineate property rights to the nation’s public forests influence the behaviour of both public and private agents in the forest sector and, consequently, have been key instruments of public forest policy since the earliest years of colonization. Luckert et al p 50 September 10,

 outright land sales (mostly Railroad)  < 5%, but high quality  timber leases since 1865 (“old temporary tenures”)  contained “appurtenancy” provision linking harvesting rights to the operation of sawmill September 10,

 restriction on the property right of the tenure agreement  “appurtenancy refers to whether a tenure holder must own and/or operate a processing facility for the products covered by the tenure in order to exercise the rights granted” (Luckert et al p 63) September 10,

 1912: Forest Act  Followed from the Fulton CommissionFulton Commission  Focus on timber allocation, revenues, and economic development  Created Forest Service  Created Timber Sale Licences  awarded on competitive bids, no appurtenancy  all management done by government  contained objective of “protecting the water supply” September 10,

 1947 Amendments  Followed Sloan Royal Commission  Sustained yield policy -- rate of cut  Forest Management Licences (future Tree Farm Licences)  area-based, unlimited in term (later changed)  management responsibilities delegated to private companies  intended to attract large capital investments necessary for large plants (economic development)  some had appurtenancy clauses September 10,

 Allocation of new licences very controversial  “Sommers Affair” - Minister of Forests convicted for taking bribesSommers Affair  late 1950s-early 60s, move away from competitive bidding  Continued domination of economic valuesdomination September 10,

 1978 Amendments (+ Ministry of Forests Act)Ministry of Forests Act  Followed Pearse Royal CommissionPearse Royal Commission  explicit incorporation of environmental values  Business-oriented “Socred” government struggled to accommodate surging environmental concern September 10,

 early 1980s  deep staff cuts  “sympathetic administration”  1987 Amendments  required private sector to bear full financial responsibility for reforestation  response to US countervailing duty pressures September 10,

 Rejuvenation of environmental concern  1988: proposal to “rollover” all volume- based (FL) tenures to area-based (TFL) creates crisis  Criticized as “privatization”  1989: Forest Resources Commission appointedForest Resources Commission  beginning of the end of the old regime September 10,

 evolution of tenure  less competition, more concentration of control  more private management responsibilities  Government-business partnership  economic concerns dominant (FP = BC econ development policy)  environmental concerns peripheral  when in crisis, appoint a Commission September 10,

 1991: NDP government elected 1. Forest Practices Code – significantly expanded government regulation of how logging was done 2. Land Use Planning – comprehensive planning framework designed to increase protected areas to 12% 3. Timber Supply Review – brought more rigour and care to determination of rate of harvest 4. Forest Renewal BC created to invest in future forest and compensate workers September 10,

 1996: shift from Harcourt to Clark  from pale green to labour brown  Jobs and Timber Accord – tried to tie cutting rights to provision of jobs  some significant change to protect environmental values  increased government regulation of economic transactions, labour market September 10,
