TMX-Feature

West Alternate Route.

On August 19th 2021 TMX reiterated that the west alternate route is approved and 99.9 percent of the expansion is

approved at this writing.

Variance came from request of Coldwater FN Band.

The Commission also found there has been adequate consultation and accommodation with respect to potentially affected Indigenous peoples for the purpose of their decision on the variance application. The Commission gave significant weight to the fact that Coldwater, which is the Indigenous community located in the Coldwater Valley and closest to the West Alternative, indicated its support for the West Alternative as the superior route option through the Coldwater Valley. The Commission noted that in the West Alternative variance application, Trans Mountain included several letters from other Indigenous peoples in support of Coldwater’s position on the West Alternative.

1500 Covid-19 cases reported…

There were 1472 new confirmed cases reported on Saturday the 21st of August. this brought the weekly average to 2336 for 7 days. The curve has been trending up since the last week of July. The end of March 2021 saw daily averages around 6000 going to around 9000 before trending down mid April. Bottoming out around 300 cases in the second week in July.

The case load is moving up again as 1500 cases reported by Canada today. Vaccination in Canada is high however the unvaccinated can put hospitals in stress as yet and individual personal tragedies can present a lot to grieve for people who have not yet availed themselves of readily available vaccines.

Emergency assistance to keep the health and safety of workers.

Trans Mountain is available to assist in wildfire management in BC.

We have offered the use of our camp communities in Merritt and Clearwater for evacuees and are currently housing evacuees and firefighters working in the area in our Merritt facility. In Kamloops, work was stood down in Kenna Cartwright Park and Pineview Park areas as requested by the City of Kamloops, with team members helping to mitigate fire risk by wetting and cutting grass in areas under active construction for the Expansion Project. Trans Mountain also supported the Robson Valley Fire Service response efforts with a skidder and water tank after a fire ignited in the North Thompson region.

Covid-19 BC

One hundred and twelve new cases.

BC had 112 new cases on Friday with a weekly average of 89. The daily average is approaching one hundred is significant:

The Merritt BC vaccination facility has moved to a smaller complex, that is the Memorial arena to the smaller civic center. With billions of people in the world not yet vaccinated and the border being opened on August 9th to the US, it is closing in on Vaccination availability.

Issue dropping from first of mind in Canada.

Perhaps Covid-19 will be not be top of mind soon and will go from pandemic to endemic status, so safety may not be out front however unvaccinated people can still pick up a debilitating case of the disease.

Forth serious outbreak of a strain coming from Asia.

From Covid -19 to Sar’s there has been four strains of serious virus driven disease coming from the east in recent history. It should be a priority to address this in respect to world travel and safety as variants are dangerous.

Stay out of the hospital…

Summer and seasonal considerations are working along with vaccinations to lower the new cases down to a manageable amount. Vaccinations are central to the health authorities program to leaving restrictions in September. The key to the thinking is that when enough people are vaccinated to keep the systems going then restrictions will come off. This will leave a minority of people that could suffer at a rate the same or greater then when the whole population was at risk. These can be a awful personal tragic suffering with remorse and guilt that will be harsh when realising vaccination was within easy reach.

Yes some may have A symptomatic reactions and be strong enough to live through this disease but some will be a big burden on those close to them. Neglecting vaccination could be considered as selfish. We recommend that you shallow your pride and get the shot.

Do it! Small pox, Polio and to some extent TB are gone because of science and cooperation. So its academic do the deed, today!
