We the undersigned believe the gondola proposed by Sea to Sky Gondola Corp. does not serve the public interest and will negatively impact Stawamus Chief Provincial Park. We call on the government of British Columbia to host an impartial and inclusive public hearing to better understand the potential negative impacts of this project and gather comments from all British Columbians who should have a say in how our provincial parks are managed.

My kids grew up hiking these trails. It would be a total shame to see it get all built up like everywhere else. Please stop this.

Seriously? The mountain is fine just the way it is. We dont need more cables over the rock faces. This is just for profit and ruins the view.
