BC Government to get a deferral on old growth from first nations.
On November 2 the provincial government announced that it would be working in partnership with First Nations to defer the harvest of 2.6 million hectares of BC’s most at-risk old growth forests. Logging deferrals are viewed as a temporary measure – as recommended in the 2020 Old Growth Strategic Review – to allow for the development of a new approach to sustainable forest management that prioritizes ecosystem health.

Today is National Pharmacy Technician Day, since 2015 the third Tuesday of the month is NPTD ” we thank technicians for their tireless efforts.”
- Buy a gift only we could tip pharmacy techs! Failing that, a teddy bear, balloon, box of chocolates, or a nice flower to brighten up their workplace (artificial, so as to keep things clean) is sure to light up their day.
- Get a flu shot, National Pharmacy Techs Day happens to land right in the run-up to flu season, and most pharmacies offer flu shots. Seeing your pharmacy tech for a flu shot now is a great way to ensure you don’t have to see them under less happy circumstances later.
- Just say “thanks”! Pharmacies can have hundreds of people in and out in a single day, and most of those customers aren’t there to socialize. Simply taking the time to tell a pharmacy tech you appreciate them can make a pharm tech’s day.

Opinion
The Trans Mountain pipeline gained some more credibility with a Canadian electorate having the opportunity to discuss and decide on the platforms of political parties carbon plans, which included net zero by 2050.
The pipeline brings oil sand products to the coast and is squarely in the public interest in generating the revenue neutral income and incentives to bring down emissions by the registered UN convention of net zero by 2050.
Revenue neutral means that income to government must reduce tax’s or fees elsewhere. Most likely green incentives.
The 30% cap and trade on emissions has the potential to create capital in existing industrial entities, greener capital, and updated capital that may have a net zero effect on other industries as they produce into the GDP.
Leave it in the ground…
The leave it in the ground idea was some what muted by the discourse that produced a minority government on September 20th 2021. This released the great Canadian imperative, the potential for reasonable compromise amongst reasonable people as they pursue the constitution purpose for Canada; peace order and good government, always, and in particular during the 44th federal parliaments time.
Original asperations in 2013 video, outlining proposal.
We are not telling the reader anything that they have not had opportunity to hear. As they give leave to those they have elected to carry out the business of parliament to continue. We are not government by plebiscite but responsible government with the option to call for elections if confidence in that of a time of working on our behalf loses it shine. So let’s enter the rest of our own business for at least 2, 4 or 5 years.

Trans Mountain Expansion,, TMX is a pipeline that is a twinning of an existing one that comes from the Edmonton Alberta area and brings Alberta crude west through Burnaby to refineries in the US that process and distribute oil products into the free market. Trans mountain works on a tariff system that it charges producers to transport the crude to destinations. They do not own the oil.

Owned by the Government of Canada.
The 60 year oil company that was the Trans Mountain Pipeline was bought the Trudeau Government from US investors to ensure that the national interest of its bringing oil from Alberta was secure against the “oppression of the majority” and other dynamics of the provincial interest of big against small, wealth transfer, strategic supply of the needed chemicals for energy, food , medicines, and the sovereign Canadian ability to mange its own.
Trans Mountain pipeline was commissioned in March 1951, after an act of the Canadian Parliament created it.
Trans mountain pipeline was born in the public interest, moved in and out of public control over its life time and at this time remains steadily in Canadian public control, at least until completion of and the maturity of its role in the supply line. The standards of construction and maintenance may exceed what is generically called an oil pipeline elsewhere in the world, which is good we believe. The following videos are produced by Trans Mountain however they are film and can be easily verified by interested.
Climate Change Emergency.
The discourse of the current federal election has some candidates calling global warming as an emergency situation. We agree that the demands of human population is making for all kinds of emergency situations and they all need attention. The carbon thing is to be addressed by emissions controls after use and requires industry to do it if other needed dynamics are not to be neglected.
Insurance
Some are calling for the insurance industry to not give insurance to the TMX operations, in an effort to stop the construction. We have not researched who may be providing insurance to the operations. However for those that find comfort in the fact that insurance company’s often partner by under writing projects we would remind you that the Canadian Government self insures its operations as do some large corporations and because the TMX operations are government owned its a mute point to try to undermine its construction by that kind of boycott
Sense of place
The way the expansion and indeed the continuation of life on earth should not violate our peoples sense of place or belonging.. Three generations have come along of people that directly benefited from Trans Mountain operations, sense of place is well established with these, we hope that those that are not at arms length will try to and speak out when needed, to support the good things, that may come to the people in the macro sense.
