this is actually a factor in the pipeline thing because the Residents depend on salmon and even more specifically Sockeye. The spill scenarios are extremely destructive for Sockeye.
Oh?? I was not aware that oil tankers ate Salmon or Halibut?
And as Salmon spawn in mountain river to shallow for tankers I suspect Salmon Fry will not be much affected!!!!!
And Salmon spend most of their adult lives in deep oceans- so a spill means little to such deep water fish- unless of course it occurred
during the BRIEF Salmon run up river.........but NOBODY is saying we should not have tight regulations for moving oil- what we ARE
SAYING is that LIE-beral propaganda and gravy grabbing BULLSH+T should NOT the guiding principle for all economic activity!!!!
WE tax payers are all painfully aware that LIE-beral manipulation will cause a major spike in oil cost- and generate massive inflation throughout our economy and that HYPOCRITE LIE-berals will DEMAND an immediate raise in pay so they can compensate - as they
feel ENTITLED- for the massive inflation and economic upheaval that their gravy grabs will generate!!!!!
And Halibut spawn in deep water so are also relatively safe!!!!!!!
Do oil tankers eat Harbour Seals???
Or whales????????
The "left coast" has much bigger political fish to fry than some Halibut!!!!!!
Like what to do when the new govt comes along and builds the pipeline anyway!!!!!!!!!!!!
Or how to deal with an enraged Alberta govt that chooses to shut off oil supplies to B.C.
LIE-berals are in the process of talking themselves out of jobs in govt!!!!!!
And what to do about dumping sewage into the ocean!!!!!
Did I not hear that the Fraser River delta is one of the most polluted places in Canada????
And the lower Fraser River is a toxic sewage loaded mess!!!!!
Why dont LIE-berals take action on that?
Oh- right- they are too busy grabbing gravy to bother with REAL PROBLEMS!!!!!!!!
