On September 17th, 2004, Bachman, as well as fellow Canadian musicians Neil Young, the Barenaked Ladies, and Tal Bachman (son of Randy), held a "Clean Air Concert," in the Cowichan Community Centre in Duncan, British Columbia, Canada. The purpose of the concert was to raise money for a study of the nearby NorskeCanada mill in Crofton, British ColumbiaCrofton, British Columbia Canada, is a small town that is part of the District of North Cowichan on Vancouver Island in British Columbia. The population is estimated around 2,500 people. Crofton was founded in 1902 by Henry Croft, who owned the nearby cop.

Saltspring has been a seasonal home of th overlooks the mill, and he didn't not want the smoke in sight.
