The boom in data centre construction also comes while BC Hydro expects the province will need up to an additional 9,700 gigawatt hours of additional electricity each year by 2035 — nearly double the current output of the #SiteC dam.

We spent decaaaaaaades not building #Sitec because we don't need it, particularly with skipping 3+ decades of green energy development since the 1990s NDP governments.

The devastation of that region was perfectly unnecessary if we simply stewarded green energy developments as we moved past carbon energy.

And if we weren't being climate change criminals, we still wouldn't need that damn dam.

So yeah, I don't think it's good that we have that hydro source. At all.

Did #BC just flood the #PeaceValley to use #SiteC Dam power for LNG and an Bell/Grok AI data cluster?

Is this the start of US corporations drinking our water for memes of Will Smith eating spaghetti?

This is disturbing behaviour from our province. #BCNDP have clearly forgotten that they are on a razor’s edge and can be voted out easily.

Eby continues to embrace #LNG extraction in the wake of #TMX, #SiteC, #FairyCreek and now Elon’s #AI Data Centers will be drinking our water?

This #BCNDP is clearly no better than destructive #Conservatives, if they continue down this path they’ve lost my vote.

Trump is not an excuse to openly rape our Province for profit, #Eby is completely out of line and no different than #Horgan.

Where is our ‘effin #Novavax access #BCNDP? Adrian Dix promised my #immunocompromised #bced wife in the lead up to the election we would have access to Novavax. Why does this covid minimizing bcndp now fail to deliver on novavax and continue to stay silent on masking, long covid and covid awareness?

Was this just another of BCNDP false promises to garner votes, immediately cast aside by Bonnie Henry once you won?

What a completely pitiful government this BCNDP has been on Covid. Truly uninspiring, complacent to sickness and full of Bonnie Henry’s gaslighting.

Perhaps Eby and the rest of his bcndp are truly just full of bs, we already know Henry and Dix are.

Sure looks like Eby’s bcndp government has embraced gross negligence as their sole covid response. Nothing but a bunch of slimy Great Barrington crooks in suits. Sickening, pun intended.

"Carney was the United Nations Special Envoy on Climate Action and Finance and was behind the UN-backed Net-Zero Banking Alliance, so some Canadians might have assumed he’d prioritize climate action if he won the election.

"Instead, Carney has described developing fossil fuel infrastructure as 'pragmatic.'"

So offensive! After destroying #Indigenous homelands, sacred sites, #ecosystems stewarded for millennia, and a land that could have fed a million people, the proposal is to give this #megadam an Indigenous name. #FFS!!! https://thenarwhal.ca/site-c-dam-gets-indigenous-name/

#SiteC #bcpoli #settlerColonialism #IndigenousPeoples

For a Canadian/BC perspective. 25GW capacity is approximately 25 times the capacity of the #SiteC dam.

Yes, I know solar is not 'base load’... but this is 25 TIMES larger, for near $0 cost to government and reduces costs over time for electricity for consumers.

It is bitterly ironic that in some enlightened parts of the world rivers (& salmon, & ecosystem) are being liberated of their dams. Here in BC, we’ve spent billions upon billions on damming the Peace River (the Site C boondoggle) for questionable benefits & at great loss of precious agricultural lands.

Operations update: First generating unit comes into service on Site C | Site C https://www.sitecproject.com/first-generating-unit “The first of six generating units on the #SiteC project has come into operation, following the required testing and commissioning process.

The remaining generating units will come into operation one-by-one. Each generating unit can provide more than 180 megawatts of power to #BCHydro customers. The Site C project remains on track to have all six generating units in service by fall 2025.”

Of course the #RCMP's C-IRG were involved in harassing and arresting #water protectors and #landDefenders and clearing #IndigenousPeoples out of the way so this #megadam could be built. The unnecessary #SiteC is pure destruction and violence. https://pbicanada.org/2024/08/27/the-rcmp-c-irg-and-the-site-c-dam-flooding-indigenous-heritage-sites-and-burial-grounds-in-british-columbia/

The reservoir of one of, if not THE Last Great Hydroelectric Dams built in North America, #SiteC in Northern BC, is being filled. Generation is expected in December. Full power next fall.

Incredible, legitimate, controversy getting this project going, and seeing it through to now.

I'm not sure we'll know for years or decades just how bad or good a decision this will have been but one thing is for sure, the landscape is forever changed.
