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.

Careful Dear…

Merritt, BC File Photo KDG

Deer season and ruffled grouse ( Id be ruffled if there was open season on me)!: start open season mid August in some areas. However limited entry draws were drawn in mid June and may still be of use during emergency wildfire activities. The best laymen advise we have is to stay out the bush.

Ponderosa sports

The people of Ponderosa sports in Merritt have knowledge and will ML tell you to check the guide and Covid-19 restrictions on line as well as emergency conditions. Its common sense that putting yourself or workers in unnecessary danger can be a lot of trouble.

Normal yet, we wonder…

Filed under: Arts and Culture, Environment, Public health by percypaschal — Leave a comment

June 3, 2021

Normal is as normal feels: and sounds…

What is normal? It matters the context, what is normal to a drowning person is not normal to a secure lively individual. So by the end of summer there is a hope for normal life back to the people of BC that have endured a long bout of pandemic lessoned activity. This is a desire that is different with many people those that nearly drowned in the time period . And those that did reasonably well with the support given will have a different take on what is normal of normal. The people that did better by it another take.

To continue the metaphor of the drowning man, throwing a line that is reachable and not taken will produce a survivor that has a view of his individual effort being the value to be preserved. A good and strong reserve going forward for him to risk again, Those that were dependant will remain dependant but in truth no one had a complete case of either or as the effect of one played into the experience of the other. This will be the continuing normal for going forward for some time more.

Build your bridges forward and backwards.

It’s a two way street give and it comes back or maybe if not it goes some where you have effected situations unkown! We are all in this together ,a communicable disease that has no redemption in its self. But we all contribute to the pot of hope and the balancing of outcome.

Everyone offends…

Living our lives and doing our lively hoods offends or challenges others in a way out of our control however offending with our talk is mostly in our control and if we do not offend lightly in speech and other communications we are to be commented. This is needed when trying to return to a normal real or imagined. Good luck!

See you on the normal side…
