Important CCCJ Town Hall Meeting to discuss Constitutional Reform

Dear CCCJ Members,

You are invited to an important Town Hall meeting, to discuss recommendations for revisions to our Chamber’s Constitution.

Our Constitution was written in 1981 and is dated, in some places no longer reflecting the nature and goals of our organization. Our Constitutional Reform Committee, including legal experts, has spent the past year and a half modernizing it to better reflect our organization's needs – with a focus on democracy and transparency. The end goal is to allow us to best pursue our mandate of strengthening the ties between Canada and Japan.

Back to the Beginning, Forests and the Future of Japan By C.W. Nicol

 

C. W. Nicol is a celebrated writer, lecturer and environmentalist who has lived in Kurohime, Nagano, since 1980 having first come to Japan in 1962.

Alarmed at the neglect and outright destruction of Japan’s forests, he began buying adjoining parcels of abused and neglected woodland in 1986, and hiring a local forester to help return the woods to health. In 2002 he donated this land to form the nucleus of The C.W.Nicol Afan Woodland Trust.
