BERNIE WINS ALASKA, HAWAII & WASHINGTON!!!



I could watch this over and over!!
Happy Easter!
There couldn't be a bigger sign!
Everyone saw it. 
I loved what Bernie said "World Peace! "

















Noting the “huge” voter turnout — in Washington, party officials estimated more than 200,000 people participated on Saturday, close to the record set in 2008 — he told the crowd, “We are making significant inroads into Secretary Clinton’s lead.”

Good Friday Vancouver Aquarium Visit!

So we were super blessed today! We used our leisure pass to go to the Vancouver Aquarium. 
http://www.vanaqua.org/

This is so awesome. We are very very grateful for this opportunity as the cost to visit is very high for us and we usually only make it once a year!

So this is fantastic. AND THEY HAVE A NEW EXHIBIT. The Ray Pool.
http://www.vanaqua.org/experience/feature/discover-rays


You get to touch Sting Rays...or some kind of rays...I have to research it better...sorry..very tired and just edited and put up all the photos on FB and Youtube.

Here they are for your enjoyment if you can not make there.

Help the Oil Sands Workers Go Green!



ALL HANDS ON DECK!!

We have all heard about the high employment and the stress that everyone is going through as we transition from Fossil Fuels to Solar & Wind and other "truly renewables" (NOT LNG!! LFG!)

Anyways, here's a great video (SEE BELOW) and great idea of how we can turn things baby around.
Take all these hard working bright workers and help them go green.

If they are like me at all, who worked in the agriculture and labour industry they will be fabulous at this. They could be our heroes.

Now I am not so sure about the mass production of anything.

Thinking too big got us into this mess.
My idea is a solar panel on every roof. 

 And for that we are going to need a lot of educated skilled hard working people.

So let's get going. Everyone around the world is already ahead of us.

Let's get everyone on board," IT'S ALL HANDS ON DECK!" like the video above states. Let's start training and going solar.
We have a ton of catching up to do, but I am sure we can.




Laid-off By Oil Sands, Alberta Trades Seek Solar Relaunch

Boilermaker Lliam Hildebrand admits he's been living a "double life."
The Victoria native grew up enjoying Vancouver Island's natural beauty and developed a passion for the environment. But unable to find work in his desired field of renewable energy, he applied his training for years in what may be the most controversial industry on the continent: Canada's oil sands.
"When I entered the trade, I didn't have any understanding of climate change and the impact my trade is having on the world," Hildebrand said. "But that awareness has been growing within me and our society."

So Hildebrand rolled up his sleeves and built a non-profit oil sands-worker-led initiative called 'Iron and Earth' -- and on Monday, he and a cadre of other oil workers launched it at a press event in Edmonton.  

 Earlier this month, Hildebrand attended the GLOBE sustainable business summit in Vancouver. His idea won encouragement from other attendees David Suzuki and Canadian Labour Congress president Hassan Yussuff, and according to those present caught the attention of Canada's Minister for the Environment and Climate Change, Catherine McKenna. The federal Liberal government has promised to invest significantly in clean energy this year.

The go-green training concept comes at a tough time for the oil industry. The Canadian Association of Petroleum Producers has said that some 100,000 jobs were lost in 2015 due to low global oil prices.

Iron & Earth
http://www.ironandearth.org/
http://www.ironandearth.org/take_the_pledge 
Iron & Earth is led by oilsands workers committed to incorporating more renewable energy projects into our work scope. We created this organization during the spring of 2015 when oil prices started to fall. We were losing work and conversations about needing to diversify our energy grid was dominating our lunch conversations on the job site. This moment acted as a catalyst for us to realize our shared vision for a sustainable energy future for Canada - one that would ensure the health and equity of workers, our families, communities, economy, and the environment. We founded Iron and Earth as a platform to engage in renewable energy development issues, and to empower us to advocate for an energy future we can be proud of creating. Our membership has since grown to include workers from a variety of industrial trades, including boilermakers, electricians, pipe fitters, ironworkers, and labourers.

http://www.ironandearth.org/


"A company called Iron & Earth is asking the provincial government to help support its Solar Skills campaign, a project that aims to train 1,000 electricians from the oilsands sector to install solar panels on 100 public buildings, making their skills marketable across the energy sector.

“Now is definitely the time to be launching this organization,” said Iron & Earth founder Lliam Hildebrand, who came up with the idea during lunchtime discussions with fellow oil workers who felt oil and gas tradespeople could become the workforce behind Alberta’s renewable energy sector.

“My dream is that one day I’ll be able to go to my union hall and have a renewable energy job to choose from.”"

"He mentioned that the Chinese regulations state it clear that all waste water pump from a factory into river or sea needed to be treated. So he questioned why the government let Sateri crossed the law without any punishment.

As the water continued being polluted, it became impossible for local farmers to grow the rice they used to grow. The smell of the natural water stinks. Once famous for its fresh and sweet seafood, now Putien’s seafood became inedible because of the contamination.

"On the side of the LNG plant is all the money, the company itself and its crooked multi-billionaire owner, the federal government, the provincial government, the LNG lobby, the fossil fuel industry, the tanker industry, the corporate media, and the right wing in general. Shilling for Woodfibre LNG, as readers will know, is an outfit called Resource Works, funded in part by the BC Business Council and, one suspects, Woodfibre LNG itself – although that’s not been admitted or proved.
Incidentally, Woodfibre LNG and Woodfibre Natural Gas are the same company."

"Suffice it to say, you cannot be a friend of the climate and still approve LNG projects. No way, no how. Which is why it came as a huge – though not surprising – disappointment when, this past Friday afternoon, the Trudeau Government quietly approved the proposed Woodfibre LNG plant in Howe Sound. (PS you don’t make an announcement you’re proud of on a Friday afternoon)."

HABITAT belongs in the FISHERIES ACT -cause it's 2016

 

Dear Justin & Catherine, Please put the HABITAT back in the Fisheries Act!!


Put Habitat Back in the Fisheries Act from SWCC on Vimeo.

We were in Mexico in the winter of 2012 when many of the changes were taking place. As part of a homeschooling assignment I asked her to help write a letter (using another as reference) and put her own words into it. Here is what she came up with.

Justin, you can make kids smile!! Put the habitat back in the Fisheries Act and protect our environment from evil greedy corporations that want to destroy our children's future.








This part at 1:50 makes me start to cry!!
Save the Walbran!
Save the Peace River!
Stop Site C!
Keep the Peace!




Calls of Voter Supression and Vote Fraud in Arizona

Just watching from Canada. Doesn't look good!! Calls and obvious videos, texts, tweets and fb - evidence of voter fraud and suppression in Arizona.

I hope the UN  or some International body is monitoring this. Someone sure needs to. They came in and watched when Harper was up to no good.

Saying prayers for Justice!!

“In the United States of America, democracy is the foundation of our way of life. And what happened in Arizona is a disgrace. I hope that every state in this country learns from that and learns how to put together a proper election where people can come in and vote in a timely manner and go back to work. Whatever the cost of that problem is people in the United States of America shouldn’t have to wait five hours in order to vote. We do not know how many thousands of people who wanted to vote in Arizona did not vote.” http://trofire.com/2016/03/23/bernie-sanders-on-voter-suppression-what-happened-in-arizona-is-a-disgrace/

There Were 5-Hour Lines to Vote in Arizona Because the Supreme Court Gutted the Voting Rights Act Reducing the number of polling places in Phoenix had catastrophic consequences in the March 22 primary.
http://www.thenation.com/article/there-were-five-hour-lines-to-vote-in-arizona-because-the-supreme-court-gutted-the-voting-rights-act/ 

   Aracely Calderon, a naturalized citizen from Guatemala, arrived just before the polls closed at 7 pm in downtown Phoenix to vote in Arizona’s primary last night. “When Calderon arrived, the line spanned more than 700 people and almost 4 blocks,” the Arizona Republic reported. She waited in line for five hours, becoming the last voter in the state to cast a ballot at 12:12 am. “I’m here to exercise my right to vote,” she said shortly before midnight, explaining why she stayed in line.







But many other Arizonans left the polls in disgust. The lines were so long because election officials in Phoenix’s Maricopa County, the largest in the state, reduced the number of polling places by 70 percent from 2012 to 2016, from 200 to just 60—one polling place per every 21,000 voters.











The significance of this election feels tangible and weighty and personal suddenly. The line to vote at the Utah House District 24 Democratic Caucus tonight with Anson Fogel.
