The Colletville/ Midday valley road bridge on the city of Merritt’s Voght street is under works by a local contractor. A pile of crushed rock on the approach is using time and pressure to test for compaction.
To the piles left is the remains of the city RV park (Claybanks RV) both the park and the bridge were destroyed by a flood on November 14th 2021.
The city was funded by the province with Nine million dollars of targeted monies to replace the bridge. The replacement will be two lanes as before. While the river is usually very controllable the wet front coming from the sea collided with a cold artic outflow going to sea over the mountains to the west of Merritt causing what is hoped to be a once in a life time dump that did huge damage to the province including the lower mainland. The fish trap was also destroyed for the second time in a fall event. the river looks inoculus in its summer best however it remains a less then reliable Friend.
Flash floods can wreak havoc in various parts of Canada, posing a significant threat to infrastructure, communities, and the environment. One example is the devastating impact of the November 14th, 2021 flood in Merritt, British Columbia. This event caused extensive damage, including the destruction of the Colletville Midday valley road bridge on Voght street and the city RV park (Claybanks RV). The subsequent reconstruction efforts, funded by the province with nine million dollars, highlight the substantial financial resources required to address the aftermath of such natural disasters.
In addition to infrastructure damage, flash floods can also lead to the destruction of vital structures like the Fish trap Coldwater river in Merritt, BC. The unpredictability and destructive potential of flash floods necessitate both short-term responses, such as rebuilding efforts, and long-term strategies for mitigating future risks. Despite the inherently challenging nature of flash floods, recognizing and understanding the patterns and contributing factors behind these events can aid in developing proactive measures to protect communities and vital resources.
The images depicting the aftermath of the flood serve as poignant reminders of the power and impact of natural disasters, underscoring the need for comprehensive preparedness and response plans to minimize the potential devastation caused by flash floods.

In Canada, March typically marks the transition from winter to spring. The popular phrase “March comes in like a lion and goes out like a lamb” is often used to describe this transition, suggesting that the month starts with harsh, winter-like conditions and ends with milder, spring-like weather. This is not specific to Canada alone, but a common theme in many regions with distinct seasonal changes.

There is suffering by many animals that are attractive to the fur industry. The loss of habitat is as cruel but usually with less drama look at the video in the below photo shared with us by former CBC writer Mark Rennie Forsyth. It is less drama then seeing the results when an animal ches his foot off to escape this crule bite.
The use of leg-hold traps on fur-bearing animals has been a subject of significant controversy and ethical concern. These traps are designed to capture animals by gripping their legs, leading to injury, pain, and distress. The suffering caused by such traps has sparked debates around the world, leading to increased scrutiny and calls for more humane alternatives.
Many organizations and individuals advocate for the prohibition or strict regulation of leg-hold traps, emphasizing the need to prioritize animal welfare and minimize unnecessary suffering in the fur industry. Efforts to raise awareness about the impact of these traps and promote ethical treatment of animals continue to be essential in addressing this issue.
It is important to explore and support sustainable and ethical alternatives to fur production, ensuring the well-being of animals and the preservation of natural habitats. The ongoing dialogue about the use of leg-hold traps reflects the broader ethical considerations surrounding human interaction with wildlife and the environment.

Salmon undergo an incredible life cycle, starting and ending in freshwater. After hatching from eggs in gravel river beds, young salmon spend several months to a few years in their natal streams before journeying to the ocean. In the ocean, they grow and mature over a period of one to several years, before returning to their original freshwater spawning grounds to reproduce and complete the cycle. This remarkable journey is not without challenges, as salmon must navigate through various predators and obstacles both in freshwater and the open ocean. Once they spawn and die, their bodies provide essential nutrients to the ecosystem. This cycle of life and death plays a crucial role in maintaining the balance of the natural world. Ai and Editor
