  4. If you want to see what is possibly the most dangerous “maritime cross roads” in Canada in terms of weather, geography, traffic, environmental impact, and all the rest:

    I have annotated a map near Gill Island.

    We don’t know the pipe route. If it’s Kitimat rather than Rupert because a route exists, this is where tankers would go.

  6. Waiting for the announcment and press conference, the CBC live blog has this nugget:

    "Alberta's deficit was initially $1.3B in the February budget, then grew to $6.5B by summer and has likely swelled even further with weak oil and natural gas prices."

    Is there an Albertan leader of any party willing to utter the words:

    "Maybe the vagaries of Oil and Gas prices is not what we should base our provincial budget on. Perhaps it is time to look at something else.”

  7. a huge moment for sovereign Aboriginal title in Canada.

    How it will impact private property owned by non-Indigenous is unclear at least to me right now. But the Conservatives are freaking out insisting people will be evicted from their land.

    Which is... of course.... VERY IRONIC

  16. Just watched The Stand, a documentary about Haida blocking a logging company back in 1985 to protect their land. I cried, I laughed, clapped and swore. Truly inspired by their strength, tenacity and peaceful approach in negotiations (something I can learn from). More than ever, I'd like to visit Haida Gwaii and learn more there.

    You can watch it for free if you're in Canada: knowledge.ca/program/stand/epi

    If #Carney submits to Danielle Smith’s demands under #Alberta’s childish threat to separate, this #NDP voter will lend no more future votes to the #Liberals.

    I live in an area upended by the #TMX construction for years. Hundreds of ignored protests, years of tall blue fences surrounding our local trails adorned with threats of incarceration. Dirty oiler flags and dirty workers smirking at residents anger as they idled their trucks for hours destroying our local habitat.

    Alberta is admitting to #Canada they will never be content unless they are given carte blanche to destroy BC ecosystems and build new pipelines, despite lack of demand for their product.

    There will always be another devastating project being forced upon us by #DanielleSmith and her heartless O&G Barons. This time, she’s content to sacrifice #BC’s #haidagwaii and North Coast, all for the sake of a dirty, greedy, corrupt Oil and Gas Industry. This will not end well.

  18. Canada's federal government has recognized Aboriginal title over the archipelago of Haida Gwaii, which is off British Columbia's northern coast, in a historic agreement with the Haida First Nation. The Big Tide Haida Title Lands Agreement affirms that the Haida have title over the islands' lands, freshwater and foreshores, and transitions Crown-title land to the Haida people. It is the first time the federal government has recognized Aboriginal title through negotiations, and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau attended the ceremony, calling it: "A new chapter [that] confirms an incontrovertible and long-known truth: Haida Gwaii belongs to you." Here's more from @cbcnews.

  20. First Impressions, Haida Gwaii

    Rugged. Wet. Remote. It is a journey from "everywhere", which is what has likely saved this gem. #SkySunday

  21. Despite staffing incentives, Masset, B.C., ER closures continue | CBC News cbc.ca/news/canada/british-col “Despite several incentives by the Ministry of Health to attract #HealthCareWorkers into rural communities in B.C., the Northern #HaidaGwaii Hospital in #Masset, B.C., continues to shut its doors, with 17 #ERclosures this past July alone.” #RuralHealth

  22. ...on #VancouverIsland, the North Coast and #HaidaGwaii, near normal or below normal temperatures are in the forecast.

    “It doesn’t mean that those parts of Canada won’t experience warm spells, but when evaluating the season as a whole, the net temperature might not be above what is climatologically normal,” Smith said.
