𝐁𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐍𝐞𝐰𝐬 𝐉𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐈𝐧! An update in today from Hon. Kerry-Lynne Findlay confirms that no funding application has been submitted to Indigenous Services Canada yet. Furthermore, the agency is currently reviewing whether permits under the Indian Act can be authorized.

This project poses significant concerns for our community, and we remain committed to advocating against it. Stay informed and engaged—our voices matter!

𝗦𝘂𝗺𝗺𝗲𝗿 𝗶𝘀 𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲, that time of year when we look to get outside and enjoy Super, Natural BC ! ☀️☀️ 𝗨𝗻𝗳𝗼𝗿𝘁𝘂𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗹𝘆, 𝘄𝗲 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗮 𝗴𝗿𝗼𝘄𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗯𝗹𝗲𝗺 - Summer in BC = Sunshine - and Sunshine + Air Pollution = 𝗗𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲𝗿𝗼𝘂𝘀 𝗔𝗶𝗿 𝗤𝘂𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗟𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗹𝘀! ☀️☀️

A quote from Metro Vancouver for this week: "𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗿 𝗽𝗼𝘀𝘁𝗽𝗼𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗼𝗿 𝗹𝗶𝗺𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗱𝗼𝗼𝗿 𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗲𝘀, especially for people at risk, including those with lung and heart conditions, diabetes, pregnant people, infants, children, and older adults. 𝗧𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝗶𝘁 𝗲𝗮𝘀𝘆 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝗳𝗿𝗲𝗾𝘂𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗯𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗸𝘀 𝗶𝗳 𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗱𝗼𝗼𝗿 𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗲𝘀 𝗰𝗮𝗻𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗯𝗲 𝗮𝘃𝗼𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗱".

𝗠𝗲𝘁𝗿𝗼 𝗩𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗼𝘂𝘃𝗲𝗿 would like us to think that the blame lies with our sunny weather alone - but it's the combination of sunshine and local pollution that causes our poor air conditions - So here's a question then, 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱𝗻'𝘁 𝗠𝗲𝘁𝗿𝗼 𝗩𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗼𝘂𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝗯𝗲 𝗹𝗼𝗼𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗼 𝗿𝗲𝗱𝘂𝗰𝗲 𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝗻 𝗶𝗻𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘀𝗲 𝗹𝗼𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝗲𝗺𝗶𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀? While we're waiting for Metro Vancouver to start taking action to protect our air quality and our health, stay informed - make good choices for activities that won't impact health, and if you're mad that this means you should stay inside, then be sure to get heard ( https://www.thecleanairalliance.org/stop-andion-permit-application.html ) ! Also:

𝗖𝗵𝗲𝗰𝗸 𝗔𝗶𝗿 𝗤𝘂𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗥𝗲𝗴𝘂𝗹𝗮𝗿𝗹𝘆: Monitor the Air Quality Health Index (AQHI) rating nearest you at www.airmap.ca, and www.gov.bc.ca/airqualitymap. Use the current health messages accompanying the rating to make decisions about your outdoor activities. Air quality can change throughout the day and by location so check the AQHI often.
