Now that Mr. VanderZalm has done Your job for all British Columbians I want to know what (if anything) Carole James has to offer this inevitable fall election. Clearly the science of silence has failed your party in the past. The amunition to make Gordo look bad is scattered in every corner of this province. Either mount a real effort or get out of the way, because this time more than half will turn out to vote. This time it's about punishment, weaklings (percieved or otherwise) don't do well when punished.
A province on a silver platter is what your group is holding, drop the ball this time and you all ought to be banished to Saskatchewan.

AngryPrimate: Magic Taps

Magic Taps
The magic taps are holding up nicely on my portion of the planet. I don't have to walk farther than my tap for clean water. I'm very lucky and I know it. Luckier still I was born under a constitution that allows for free thought. As democracy rules this portion we are free to express our views.
It is my view that there are far too many sides on the outside of this sphere.
Easter Island is a nice model, and an island mentality is where we all should be headed island residents
We're surrounded by oceans with plastic rashes, and some seriously oily discharge. Industrialized air quality where the clouds get bigger but it rains less often. I envision a kinder, gentler fate for mankind... due to all the aluminium oxide that our planet has suffered we'll all develop Alzheimer's like symptoms. A world where coloring books are on the best seller list, if you're not busy napping in the sun you can join in the perpetual Easter egg hunt. The best part is it will be Everybody, not just the elderly we'll all be physically and mentally handicapped by our own environment.
And why not? I'm sure things can improve all over if we all forgot where we put our anger, and then lost our focus.
Where I am is a good portion of this worlds water supply. I am telling you "The World" that this water is under the very serious threat of an an unscrupulous industry. Collusion and connivance litter the blatant money trail right to our own democratically elected leaders. I didn't vote for this.
I think, If we supply a fifth of the worlds water supply then a fifth of the worlds population might want to have a say as to how we're treating their supply. Canada may not wish to recognize water as a human right, but the countries it ships to might.
The threat is drilling for coal bed methane, each well draws water and captures gas, then re injects the poisoned water far below past what their team will tell you is an impermeable layer.
Have a look at what coal bed methane projects have wrought. Flamable water is quite a trick.
My province has BP, Royal Dutch Shell, and Petrobakken all looking to use and abuse your water. My politicians are clearly in connivance as a Province wide first nations moratorium against CBM was already in place.
Generating media interest is disheartening, you'd almost think they didn't want you to know,..
That used to be the case, but now we have the net, with an equally endless playing field, we can see for ourselves if we choose to do the research.
I'm a simple creature of habit, fortunately one of those habits is water, I'm rather fond of it and see very little appreciation for its life sustaining properties. How did money out prioritize water? Did anyone get that email...
I can't drink a glass of bills or change, or plastic.

The New British Columbia
British Petroleum is the new British Columbia and similar to the crisis Bolivia faced, our water (and yours) is at risk. Denied as a human right in this modern country, water trades at $1.52 on the stock market. It only makes sad sense that the country with the worst environmental project on the planet would team with the worst offenders of industry practices. Lepers and pariahs share unapproachablilty equally. Just ask anyone who goes near the police lines that protect them.
In the situation of being stranded with strangers and limited supplies, would you trust your precious water to the most irresponsible, greedheads in the group?
Our province was handed a Billion dollars for green energy, BP managed to qualify by having a green logo I guess.... because wells that use 20,000 gallons of water a day doesn't sound very 'green' to me. Neither does risking an entire water supply in the pursuit of profit. Further to that we have simpler, safer methods for energy now.
One fifth of the worlds water supply comes from Canada and we are treating that very important stewardship with no more regard that a used wad of toilet paper. In fact, how does your new water conserving flush toilet and water restrictions stack up against 20,000 gallons a day? That's one mighty flush my friends, and that is just One well. A little research will tell a terrible tale of collusion, corruption and devastation,...oh yeah, and riches for a few. The rest of us go under the bus. When the world comes asking for 'more please' how do you explain that their lives are not as important as the dollars?

Princetitution
Attention all Princetitutes
When a money deal goes down in agreement of bodily exploration and fluid exchange, those being rented are at least semi aware of the arrangement. Now that the Oil & Gas Commission have granted Petrobakken (formerly Petrobank)another one year extension to the tune of fourty six grand, we're all industry ho's. Just til November 6, 2010. Still, I was told. "You've been rented". All of us. So a pimping parallel isn't such a stretch. Except that the volumes are worse. A stranger will arrive and as fast as possible, violate Mother Earth, beginning the exchange of fluids. Here's where the parallel gets a bit wider. Cause this is no hotel romp, no convention fling nor nightclub pick up. No, this is so epic, with changes of magnitude uncomprehended, this is a copulation of Royal proportions! It's a busy schedual. Get your rest and look forward to November 6, 2010.

Stoogeville
It was while taking notes about methane gas, I noticed a reference to the ministry of environment as MOE, and just that fast Larry and Curly solidified the image.
Let's delve shall we, into the past, where (by the way) fossil fuels belong. Back to when Moe & Co were at their peak. At their backhanding,nose twisting, eye poking, whoop whooping finest.
Now, if Moe is the brains of this here environment, who plays the cohort ? Clearly Curly bears a striking resemblance to the Oil & Gas Commission, for although a stooge, can instantly invent hair brained notions to be sold quickly then abandoned when the plans meet reality.
Certainly not least we have Larry. Good old Larry. He's the vital stooge, without him it'd just be two clowns in the street duking it out. Larry brings defensive skills to the dance. We learn to block the double eye poke with the slick nose salute. He's got the stamina too, he can go on for ages. That kind of an act has needs. Big ones. Just ask him, he'll tell you.
So, here comes Larry,...a strolling along a nice country road. He spies an apple tree just beyond that fence with the private property sign. It's a good thing Larry's literate, that way he can claim he thought the 'fence' was private property. A simple little communication error.
Unfortunately Larry's also a klutz and face-plants off the fence into a fresh, warm, cow pie. The trace of methane nearly draws his attention away, but he's hungry and takes all he can carry from the apple tree.
Moe and Curly meet up with Larry as he tries to nonchalantly hide his haul. Moe bops Curly on top of his head. Curly twists Larry's nose. Larry pokes Moe in the eye then blocks Moe's two pronged retaliation.......
(Cue the circus music)
The next act may be historic in nature. See, Curly has been a cohort for so long he's never said no. Ever. Just look at the way Larry abuses then cajoles Curly into compliance. There's big pie in the sky dreams and promises of wealth, prestige & power.
Curly's heard it all before though, he's tired and sore from all the unfavourable attention. Maybe, just maybe Curly can make a decent decision and save himself from the constant aggravation. If he does it will be just as historic as the oil & gas commission denying a contract.
And so it goes in the industry world. Crazy, old fashioned ideas dealing exclusively with fossil fuel. If they ever decide to upgrade into our 21st century, maybe we'll see an improvement in character as well. How bad could it be?
Cory and Trevor come to mind....
It's 2010 now and Curly is in his office hard at work. He has been a busy stooge in a busy season. Contrary to his previous bumbling and connivance, this time he's really landed a whopper. Curly's bedfellow this time is British Petroleum. The same BP presently heading the daily news. This time it's more than a bop on the head and an eye poke. This is a maelstrom of treacherous deceit.
Curly's plea of "private land' and "already logged" rings like dreaded late nite call. You just know it's bad news.
Curly is slicker this time and consults with Larry too. Larry explains the art of distraction & demonstrates by waving one hand then slapping Moe & Curly with the other.
"A distraction!" cries Moe.
"Where!?" Curly says.
Bob, slap, kick.
Curly begins to pay attention and while rubbing his cranium mutters.."well, we did ignore a province wide first nations moratorium."
"Perfect" Larry says. "Let's give em something"
"Uh, Larry" Moe butts in, "68% of Canadian reserves don't even have potable water..."
"Poifect" Curly enthuses.
"Let's get em that."
"Not my water."
"Somebody Else's."
"But who...."
Larry spies a globe in the corner, the stooges spin and choose.
"Australia" they chorus.
"Right" Larry confirms. "They're so crazy down there it's illegal not to capture water.""Who'll pay for the shipping?" asked Curly with his brightest notion of the day.
"Leave that to me" Moe asserts. "After all, I'm with government."
Please note that the Gulf of Mexico is not only leaking oil. This is also the worst methane escape in modern human history. BP is doing it's best to go after the methane in this province at the expense of every living thing that requires water for life. The attention ought to be shared by everyone.
Canada provides one fifth of the worlds fresh water supply. The world ought to have a say on how we treat their water
