Living on Salt Spring Island, BC Former science teacher and kayak guide BSc, BEd Married I love cycling, kayaking, hiking and my awesome wife. Just trying to live a healthy, happy life.

None of these photos are from Salt Spring Island. It looks more like Tofino area.

There is another section like this (but shorter) on the north side of Ladysmith.

I don't know the specific context around this quote but it looks like it might be referring to situations where vehicles aren't required to stop. If operating within the rules then adding social norms makes the vehicles more predictable which makes traffic flow better and safer.

The people who do that don't differentiate between playing politics and playing sports. It's all about strategy. They'll play for any team, it's only the game that matters to them.

I really love reading your news stories, thank you so much. However the pop-up to subscribe is really starting to piss me off. Is it possible to have it come less often? I find that I'm more reluctant to read your articles because of the pop-up.

Fossil fuel companies are actually killing people. This is now confirmed. Their own studies from decades ago showed this would happen. How are they different from Russia?

You might be right? I think it is more likely that she is covered. Sorry, I tend to get offended when women are criticized for being bare chested or doing things that men do. A man in a Speedo wouldn't be called nude and would face little if any criticism. Our language affects how we think.

I agree with the sign, but she is not nude. She is just exercising a right that men take for granted.

So far as I am aware, most carbon capture projects fail on measures of cost and actual carbon captured. It looks like carbon capture is more fantasy than reality and might just be a delay tactic for the fossil industry.

Trans-Mountain has profits of 1/2 billion per year. It cost 40 billion to build. At this rate it'll take eighty years to break even (but probably never will). And now another boondoggle.

It's a really lovely speech! However, I think that what is happening in the US is happening here too, just not as bad. It's important that we don't let our guard down and keep trying to promote civil discourse.

I tend to agree, but I don't have enough information to make the call in this case. It seems unreasonable to have everyone wear life jackets on BC Ferries. Where do you draw the line? How big was the vessel?

I guess there are positives, but negatives are pretty high too. I would have ignored this post if it came from anyone else, but you are a politician who cares about climate. I respect you and just wanted to give you a little reminder.

Not me. I see people flying in from all over North America buying tickets that might otherwise be available to the locals who would get there in a more environmentally friendly manner. Driving up hotel prices for people who want to go there for other reasons.

It'll be interesting to see how that goes. I can't quite understand why the world's leading supplier of clean energy technology would be interested in new sources of LNG.

You flew across the country for Earthfest? Doesn't sound so earth friendly to me. Earth friendly would only be open to people who live close by.

The Energy Futures Institute is funded by the fossil industry.
