I am still raising my voice to protect wild salmon. Wild salmon are an iconic species. How is it that decisions can be made that could have any risk to the salmon. I can only assume this happens out of human ignorance. It is known that the LNG proposed for the Skeena is the heart of wild salmon habitat. It is known that the eelgrass habitat at Flora Bank is not like other areas and therefore is rare and critical for juvenile salmon. There are further risks to salmon from that Dr. P. McLaren reported but DFO did not even mention his findings. These risks to salmon should stop the LNG. I that is not enough then the impact on climate change is astronomical and would be among the largest point sources of greenhouse gas emissions in the country. This is not BC. We are not that. The Haida have banned tankers in their waters that the LNG project would need. The Lelu Island Declaration was signed by First Nations leaders from across the Skeena watershed, as well as Grand Chief Stewart Philip of the Union of BC Indian Chiefs, MLAs Jennifer Rice, Doug Donaldson, and Robin Austin, and MP Nathan Cullen, to protect the proposed site – and its salmon – from LNG development. Lelu Island has been occupied by Lax Kw'alaams members since August 2015, who have been working to prevent further work on the rejected project. Madii Lii territory, which the fracked gas pipeline would pass through on the way to Lelu, has been closed to pipeline development by Luutkudziiwus people since Aug. 2014. First nations will not be ignored according to PM Trudeau. Please do the right thing, Thank you for the opportunity to participate in this process, Sandy McNamee Sincerely, sandy mcnamee <contact information removed> bc canada <contact information removed> .

Communities that are facing the possibility of the end of their way of life are not looking to negotiate a better deal~ whether in the form of local jobs,higher royalties, or better safety standards. More and more communities are simply saying"NO". no to the pipeline, no to fracking, no to the export terminal,no to Arctic drilling, no to the coal trains, no to the oil trains.... neither here nor anywhere else. In other words... no new carbon frontiers. The Lax Kw'alaams First Nation already voted 100% against this project in May, despite an offer of $1.4 billion from Petronas.

  • Observations on Youth Engagement in Parliamentary Politics
    Observations on Youth Engagement in Parliamentary Politics Maya Fernandez, Rebecca Whitmore, Vanesa Tomasino Rodriguez and Kate Russell Low levels of youth voter turnout in recent elections have caused public concern about the disengagement of young people’s interest in parliamentary politics. In this article, the authors argue that legislative internship programmes and the presence of young legislators are both counter-examples to the trend of youth disengagement and evidence that some young people are actively involved in parliamentary politics. Drawing upon their experience as legislative interns in British Columbia, they offer a few strategies for youth engagement. n recent years, parliamentarians and the public Internship Programmes as a Path to Engagement alike have decried the decline of youth engagement Legislative internship programmes give recent in parliamentary politics. This disengagement is I university graduates the opportunity to participate most clearly evident in low youth voter turnout for in the provincial or federal legislative process. For provincial and federal elections.1 For example, in the example, during the six-month B.C. Legislative 2011 federal election 38.8 per cent of eligible voters aged Internship Programme (BCLIP), interns are assigned 18-24 years cast a ballot.2 In the 2009 British Columbia to a caucus, either Government or Opposition, while provincial election, only 26.9 per cent of eligible voters the House is in session. In addition to working with aged 18-24 years voted and 33.69 per cent of eligible a Caucus, interns take on a placement in a provincial voters aged 25-34 voted.3 Many young people are not Ministry.
