It's a fact: violence follows resource extraction projects.
@WoodfibreLNG_ + @FortisBC are proposing two workcamps for up to 1,250+ workers in Squamish, but the adverse ***ulative effects have never been properly ***essed.
Here's why you need to vote!

Is it the fossil fuel industry? Maybe. Gas utilities like @FortisBC are fighting tooth and nail to block fuel switching measures. But Canada's FF industry is mostly focused on production and exports, and it's not clear how big an issue this is for them. 16/

@timothyrenshaw @ChargePointnet @FreightWaves @navistar @workhorse The issue with BEV long haul cl*** 8 trucking may be resolved with alternative electric range extender solutions like @hyliion 's ERX. When paired with @FortisBC' s RNG investments, the ERX trucks can be net carbon negative. BC should tackle truck electrification from all angles!

So it is left to the public to hold the BC EAO and proponents accountable.
I am so disillusioned by this broken process. I am tired, and frustrated, and question whether it's even worth my time to bother trying.
Sigh.

@FortisBC So you caused the outage and your spokesperson says it’s pretty impressive that you got it back on in 35 minutes 🤔 what would be more impressive is if your people knew what they were doing and this didn’t happen at all. But keep rooting your own horn 🤡 https://t.co/nCTy9VvUIb

@EvanLSolomon 25 yrs in the same west coast BC house. In that time, dozens of @bchydro outs from 30 minutes to 3 days but not one single @FortisBC gas outage. Not one.
So, next time your ESG obsessed guests prattle on about total electrification, maybe bring that up.

@TheJenRollins @FortisBC I'd debated it since we have very little gas running to the house now that we've swapped from gas to a HP (BBQ is gas from the house, stove, and fireplace) but when I did some digging, it didn't add up.
