That's Got To Hurt.
The Endbridge Proposal would have oil tankers heading up and down the Inside Passage of BC -- an area of pristine wilderness and a wonder of the planetary ecosystem. Tankers would dodge one another in narrow passages fraught with currents, winds and fog and hidden rocky protrusions. Good times until the inevitable grounding, collision or [ahem] "navigation malfunction" occurs. Oil would then slather across water, coastlines far and wide, whales, birds, seals, fish, shell fish, sea plants, and make ghastly the rich, living beauty of the Inside Passage.
On September 25, 2009 a cargo vessel named the Petersfield had a misadventure in one of those passages. Good news. The more the merrier and the better to provide evidence against the loopy, ill-conceived and downright bullgoose looney Endbridge wet dream. Read all about it HERE.
