Let's meet Ken Wu, former Executive Director and co-founder of the Ancient Forest Alliance, who has spent years protecting ancient forests in British Columbia, including being a major player in protecting the Big Lonely Doug.

Ken tells how he named the iconic Doug Fir tree which is located in Vancouver Island. He also talks about how the indigenous people of Canada play a vital role in protecting these iconic trees and how you can be involved in saving them for future generations.
