A number of Port Alberni residents are upset to see logging activities taking place right on the edge of a cemetery.
People took to social media last weekend with photos and comments after Mosaic Forest Management took down a number of trees near Alberni Valley Memorial Gardens, on the Port Alberni Highway. The logging took place right up to the edge of the cemetery, which is owned by Yates Memorial Services, some of it just metres away from gravesites.
