The company did not immediately respond to a request for comment, but media reports quoted a spokesman suggesting that the proximity of the protest camp wasn't a coincidence.

Tsawak-qin Forestry Limited Partnership and Tsawak-qin Forestry Inc have been logging in the old-growth area since August 2025, and police have made a total of 15 arrests as they enforce a court injunction allowing the logging.
