Other than being bigger, how are the tug diesel engines Amy different from the diesel engines in Injun fissing fleet?

At least the West Coast Diesel Injuns got their fuel for their boats, trucks, heavy equipment generators and heating.

Murican tug. the Canadian ones that bring fuel to the rez don't pollute.

No I read and have read many accounts of the people and times on the coast of B.C. I also have my years of observing and asking . Yes the natives in this part of the world started wearing Hudson Bay blankets as clothing after those Hudson Bayer's came here . And yes they were flea bitten rags in lots of cases more prominently in the case of children . Of course those children had to learn the traumatic experience of wearing underwear with their uniforms .

F-cking sand fleas. The HBC cozy wool blankets are gone but those f-cking sand fleas live on.
I know who needs them . They are really bad on the clam beds .
A perfect set up line if I wanted to create a sh-t storm though .

The old "create a problem and supply the solution" gig. The indigenous people had to teach the colonialists about hygiene. Most tribal peoples bathed every morning at sunrise. The first immigrants almost never bathed and require copious amounts of perfume and scented powders to cover up their stench. That is why they brought so many diseases that wiped out the majority of the indigenous population. Those flee infested blankets were so because they were previously worn by immigrants and given away when they were no longer of use to them. Once given, the then went about mocking them for living in poverty that the immigrants forced on them by stealing their food supply, their culture, land and resources. Get your story straight. You have been sadly educated by your colonial masters.

Nooooo the Keepers of the Earth bought them with the fur of slaughtered animals.

Wool kept them warmer than furs so they embraced the wool blankets.

Cleanup vessel at Bella Bella spill is itself swamped

A response boat working to retrieve diesel from a sunken tug near Bella Bella has itself run into trouble.
Dylan Carter with the Joint Rescue Co-Ordination Centre says the craft took on water in rough seas earlier today.
“A small skiff associated with one of the landing barges at the scene was briefly swamped during salvage operations with one person on board. The boat and the person were both recovered. No injuries and no pollution were reported from that part of the incident.”
Earlier this week, crews began removing the remaining fuel aboard the Nathan E. Stewart, a U.S. registered tug that ran aground of Athlone Island, near the Great Bear Rainforest.

Iowa Woman Gets Arrested On Her OWN Property After DAPL Pipeline Steals Her Farm



Uncategorized Cops Arrest Woman Who Was ON HER OWN PROPERTY For Opposing ILLEGAL DAPL Pipeline

October 20, 2016 6:05 pm by Jeremiah Jones

Lately we have seen numerous Dakota Access Pipeline protesters arrested for “trespassing” in North Dakota, even when on public land or treaty land, but now we see an Iowa landowner also arrested on her own property.
Cyndy Coppola was arrested on Saturday on her family’s farm in Calhoun County Iowa, according to KFRYTV.

They used condemnation court and eminent domain to get easements to the property. On Saturday, Coppola and her friend Ed Fallon were arrested after attempting to block trucks carrying pipeline across her own farm.
Coppola describes how it is difficult to see someone else seize control of your property against your will:
“It was very frustrating, and when I first saw that topsoil piled up when they started digging, my first reaction was to cry, because we’ve tried everything,” says Coppola.
Coppola and her family are part of a lawsuit brought by nine Iowa farms against Dakota Access for using eminent domain to gain easements, which they say is against Iowa state law.

The tug was pushing a fuel barge. It holds US fuel and goes to Alaska. Pipelines to the coast are for oil leaving the country for China. What do you not understand about the problem? What do Canadian boats have to do with exported oil and gas? Typical strawman argument.

Let's remember to pray for not only the safety of our sisters and brothers at the camps and on the front lines, but also for the police and politicians involved in this, that their hearts and minds open to the awareness of what they are really doing, and that they be filled with understanding and compassion. - Two Eagles

North Dakota Police ‘Out Of Control’ In Crackdown On Dakota Access Pipeline Protests

STANDING ROCK SIOUX RESERVATION, North Dakota — As reports of police abuse at Dakota Access Pipeline protests accumulate, a civil liberties NGO warns that activists’ constitutional rights are under attack.
“In Standing Rock, the cops are out of control,” warned Cooper Brinson, staff attorney at Civil Liberties Defense Center, in a report published on Thursday.
Citing reports of humiliation, beatings by police, and unnecessary strip-searches of arrestees, Brinson wrote:
“The actions of police against the land and water protectors at Standing Rock are depraved, abusive, and disgraceful. They are exceedingly disrespectful and radically humiliating to the people who have occupied this land since time immemorial.”
Brinson reported that police have confiscated sacred tribal drums and tools used by Native American journalists.
On Oct. 17, a North Dakota judge dismissed criminal charges against Democracy Now! host Amy Goodman, but several journalists still face charges for reporting on Dakota Access Pipeline protests. Four members of the Unicorn Riot media collective are charged with misdemeanors, and three other journalists are facing felony charges, including Emmy-winning documentarian Deia Schlosberg, who could receive a maximum penalty of 45 years behind bars on three felony charges.

The tug wasn't and they have been plying the inland passage for many years. An accident was inevitable. Why does a Yanky barge and tug have special dispensation to ply our waters?

Because it is too small to go outside. A more important question is why logging has been prohibited on much of the inside passage because tourists on boats from Seattle to Alaska apparently don't want to see clearcuts even though they do not spend one penny in Canada.

Jail is a good place for them. Most are probably too useless to do community service.
