August is a month that has the least amount of sea ice and we are not surprised at the passing. Her tone and demeanor communicated an easy passing different from the second war passage of the St Rock and its 5 RCMP members that got through. A member of a service club that I was involved with had a father who was one of the police officers on that voyage and told of hardship and the perseverance employed by the crew of the St Rock.
Catherine is a member of the Nicola Naturalist Society who’s president is Alan Burger a University of Victoria Alumni and a person keen on the global warming perspective. A responsible perspective and one we hold credible; we have another witness now of its effect. And hardship on some fauna .
