Today is national Donald duck day in the USA. It is that way because Donald Duck was born ( so to speak ) on June 9th 1934. The cartoon character like others of Cartoonist and Entrepreneur. Walt Disney the silly duck cartoons brought a lot of relief to many people during the tough times of the 1930s.

Did you play the exercise in school, you know the one where you are given a statement to whisper in the ear of the class mate in the desk ahead of you, then see how it ends up after going through the class. It was often way out of its starting voice You wonder if now days, is it starting out as something bad and maybe got closer to the truth along the way. That is how I feel when I try to see and add rational footing to statements that are inflaming and derisive. Where did this thing come from, a delusion forum, a fear and sensational reserve of misinformation, we wonder! Some say that it is now a public health issue , not a only a journalism or free speech issue.
. Humour sometimes softened the effect, but that science has gone over to one ( in most incidences) format, that is derogatory sex jokes, is it the last refuge of civility to use sex to get a laugh at hard positions of fear and delusion, we wonder.
Engagement worked as a softener of hard positions once, now power of speech is used to gain undeserved engagement. We separated criminal attitudes once, and most people knew what that was! Blinding of good values by constant misinformation ( once called slander or libel ) is a real prospect now, that has as its best cure the resolve to know that truth! Not just the truth as It may be truth, but is it presented in a way that will harm or in positive action in remedial gain. You are responsible to do that in a way that sees a pathway to peace, not in unrelenting wrath.
Gravediggers never run out of work, when it gets slack they can protest in a way that leaves only one way forward. While a recurrent evil, those attitudes do persist in the panic of mistruth and reciting it stirs that pot of inspiration, Do not be a gravedigger unless its a truth that has to live…We wonder…
Some Truths Kill…

“Trust in news has become a public health issue,” said CJF Board Chair Kathy English. “With misinformation about vaccines readily available online, journalists provide trustworthy information that can inform life-saving decisions.”
The CJF survey included a quiz that measured people’s belief in some of the most prominent false stories about COVID-19 and the vaccine. Quebecers were least likely to score an A (at least 10 out of 12 questions correct) compared to any other region in Canada and more than a quarter of Quebecers failed altogether. Only 28 percent of Canadians scored an A.
“Our research shows that those who trust media and journalists are more informed about the benefits of COVID-19 vaccines than those who mistrust media and get their information from other sources,” said Natalie Turvey, President and Executive Director of the CJF. “In addition, we found that 83 percent of the people who scored highest on the quiz trust journalists to give them information about COVID and the vaccines, indicating that their news literacy is high.”
The research showed that 64 percent of Quebecers will get the COVID vaccine as soon as it is available to them (higher than the national rate, which saw 61 percent of Canadians say they will get a COVID-19 vaccine right away). Eight percent of Quebecers say they never will get a vaccine. By comparison, Alberta has the highest number of people who will never be vaccinated (13 percent).

Construction in the the Burrard inlet…
A construction safety zone has been declared in a portion of eastern Burrard Inlet and Notices to Shipping have been issued by the Canadian Coast Guard (CCG). Additional notices have been distributed to Indigenous groups, local area residents, marinas, port users, pilots, industry stakeholders and others.
A floating construction safety boom around the immediate construction site is there to assist in ensuring the safety of boaters in the area; it is demarcated by navigation buoys carrying appropriate day and night markers. Please do not anchor your vessel near the buoys to avoid entangling your anchor with the buoy chains.
Boaters and other vessels will be able to navigate safely past the work area. Large commercial vessels navigating the area will continue to follow the well-established vessel movement practices under pilotage.
On-water safety vessels will provide guidance and assistance as required and they can be contacted via VHF radio Channels 09 and 16.
Trans Mountain will continue to regularly communicate and update all marine waterway users, including boaters, commercial fishers and Indigenous groups on construction activities in the construction area. Communication will include meetings or workshops with key user groups, mail-outs, local advertising and on-water and onshore signage.
For recreational users, a Transport Canada Safe Boating Guide provides valuable information and the VFPA has a Port Information Guide. Enquiries regarding recreational boating safety near the Westridge Marine Terminal in Burnaby can be directed to info@transmountain.com or 1.866.514.6700.

Butterflies and Moths…
Butterflies are watched and data collected File Photo KDG
The last item under Interesting things in he right hand menu bar on the blog home page has a butterflies and moths link to log sightings. data collected is used for conservation purposes. If you take in a campsite this year why not take a picture of butterflies , moths and caterpillars and register them once you open an account. There are many identified on the website already and adding yours will enhance data collection.
The power utility has camp sites in BC and unlike the the the dam visitor sites the rec sites are open this spring and summer (avoid weekends) as they are busy then.
