Stories like this coming out is going to cost votes Premier. http://www.castanetnet/edition/news-story-188045-3-.htm#188045 From: s'22 Sent: Tuesday, February 7, 2017 6:18 AM To: OfficeofthePremier, Office PREM:EX; Minister, MCF MCF:EX Cc: [email protected] Subject: Alex Gervais death Hi: I am appalled by the lies and controversies your government created with Mary Ellen Turpel Lafond, when she presented the same concerns about your government actually doing very little to address the issues of children and youth in care of your so called ministry/government. To say that this report is balanced, is a slap in the face of the public that pays your wages with our taxes dollars. I follow the issues of youth and children in care and what you have done is wrong, cruel and borderline criminal. Throughout Gordon and your government we have had just lies, lies, and lies regarding this issue. On top of it you tried to make Mary Ellen Turpel Lafond look bad. We the public know better. You will be out of the premier's office and MS. Cadieux will be gone (thank God), however the next premier will have to deal with many permanent crisis created by your heartless decisions and narrow minded actions. As a member of this society I am short of words to express myself. Upon reading about this young man's death I could not help but cry.

  • Message from the President
    Message from the President Congratulations to the events committee for hosting the Women in Media panel discussion in February. It was both inspiring and insightful. Member Bridgitte Anderson did a fantastic job moderating and exploring the constantly changing roles women hold in journalism today. Like many of you, yet another virtual meeting at the end of a long day is sometimes the last thing I feel I need, but this session left me invigorated and thankful yet again for being a member of this community of incredible women. Virtual meetings offer us the ability to create sessions that are more accessible and frankly less consuming of our time as we search for ways to connect. I will be at the front of the line cheering when it is deemed safe to meet in person once again – and I hope the option of grabbing a glass of my favourite beverage, getting comfy and clicking a link to join powerful discussions will not disappear completely. That is the reason I jumped at the chance to sign up for IWF Global’s 2021 Virtual Cornerstone Conference, Change in the Face of Challenge, March 25th with Behind the Scenes (March 24) and Dine Arounds (March 18) all artfully scheduled to accommodate global time zones. Sessions will also be available following the conference for all those who register. IWF Global has opened up the events portal to highlight all the global forum activities that are open to members. Please check them out and register if you are interested in attending. Finally, further in this newsletter you will find a call out for volunteers to build out small group engagement sessions, based on members’ passions and interests.

    From: To: SiteC Review / Examen SiteC [CEAA] Cc: [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected] Subject: Please deny the Site C mega-dam Date: April 3, 2013 8:35:06 PM Linda Jones Panel Manager Canadian Environmental Assessment Agency 22nd Floor, 160 Elgin Street Ottawa Ontario K1A 0H3 [email protected] Dear Ms. Jones, Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) submitted by B.C. Hydro with regard to the proposed Site C dam on the Peace River. The Peace River valley is a significant historical, cultural and natural feature in northern B.C. This significance is recognized by the B.C. government’s designation of the Peace as a Heritage River. The river is heavily used by local residents for boating, swimming, rafting and fishing. The Peace River has significant cultural and historic values associated with First Nations settlement. The upper reaches of river have already been developed for hydro power. The WAC Bennett and Peace Canyon hydro-electric dams produce 31 per cent of British Columbia's hydro-electric power. A third dam, called Site C, is now proposed for the Peace River downstream from the confluence with the Moberly River, near the city of Fort St. John. B.C. Hydro is seeking federal and provincial approval to construct Site C and create a third reservoir on the river. This would destroy virtually all of the historic Peace River that remains within B.C. The purpose of the EIS is to assess the significance of the impacts of the Site C dam and determine whether or not they can be mitigated or offset.

    B.C. Today – Daily Report June 17, 2019 Quotation of the day “We need John Horgan and his government to step up and take action — any action — to help our small, forest-dependent towns get through this challenging time.” Liberal MLA Dan Davies (Peace River North) says the NDP government has not done enough ​ ​ to support forestry-dependent communities, as mills around the province continue to close and curtail production. Today in B.C. The House is adjourned for the summer recess. Committees this week The Select Standing Committee on Finance and Government Services is conducting public ​ consultations on Budget 2020 this week, starting with a session in Prince Rupert at the Highliner ​ Plaza Hotel and Conference Centre at 2 p.m. today. Committee members will also visit Kitimat, Prince George, Fort St. John and Quesnel before heading back to the Lower Mainland for a consultation in Abbotsford on Thursday. The consultation period ends on June 28. Mill closures and curtailments lead to political jousting As announcements of mill closures and curtailments pile up, the opposition B.C. Liberals are calling on the NDP government to slash stumpage rates and reduce the carbon tax for the province’s forestry sector. “To date, the John Horgan government has thrown up its hands and told forest-dependent ​ ​ communities there is nothing it can do to help them,” Liberal Leader Andrew Wilkinson said in ​ ​ a statement, released in tandem with a letter addressed to the premier last week. “This is failed leadership on the part of John Horgan — plain and simple.

  • BC Today – Daily Report April 8, 2020 Today in B.C
    BC Today – Daily Report April 8, 2020 Quotation of the day “We need to double down now.” After several days of encouraging case numbers, Health Minister Adrian Dix urges British ​ ​ Columbians to redouble their efforts to flatten the COVID-19 curve. Today in B.C. On the schedule Provincial health officer Dr. Bonnie Henry and Health Minister Adrian Dix will provide an ​ ​ ​ ​ update on B.C.’s COVID-19 cases at 3 p.m. The briefing will be livestreamed. ​ ​ Essential services, test kits and government aid: lobbying in the time of COVID-19 With the COVID-19 pandemic set to dominate the province’s attention for the foreseeable future, lobbyists and firms are seeking the government’s ear. The provincial lobbyist portal counts 35 new and recently amended registrations that include the key word “COVID-19.” Priorities include selling products and technology to aid the province’s efforts to battle the coronavirus, securing essential service designations, and keeping government officials up to speed on the impacts the pandemic is having on industries. Some company’s interests are more specific than others. Last week, Western Policy Consultants lobbyist Michael Bailey — who served as executive director to former premier Bill ​ ​ ​ Bennett — registered to lobby the health ministry on behalf of the Lynn Valley Care Centre. The ​ facility was the first long-term care centre to confirm COVID-19 cases and remains an active ​ ​ outbreak, accounting for a significant percentage of the province’s coronavirus fatalities. Bailey registered to brief health ministry officials “on the need for government assistance for ​ long-term care homes through the COVID-19 pandemic” and discuss the future of the facility’s contract and funding agreement with the province.
