I'm angry. As an asthmatic, I couldn't even take my dog out today because of whatever toxic crap #DWR shipbreaking-retrofit site was burning today. So, not only mind bending noise, we've so much smoke, it's impossible to breathe. @josieosborne.bsky.social @gordjohns.bsky.social what is happening?

I am sick of this province. Such hypocrisy. @josieosborne.bsky.social @gordjohns.bsky.social @davidebybc.bsky.social do nothing to protect families. Spent the entire day listening to deafening sound of anti-fouling paint being sprayed onto barges. Happy frikin Saturday. youtu.be/6SKkVmunAjM?...

#DYK Baynes Sound is a globally protected area? KPA11073. #WLRS allowed an #unpermitted #unregulated #shipbreaking industry to operate; resulting in toxic discharge into marine environment! @birdscanada.bsky.social @birdnewcaledonia.bsky.social @keybiodiversity.bsky.social @bcndpcaucus.bsky.social

The herring are coming! The sea lions are ready! But #unregulated #unpermitted #shipbreaking #retrofits threaten #BaynesSound with toxic effluent! Sound the alarm! #DFO #ECCC enforce the Fisheries Act! 13 Warnings. 1 Pollution Order. Environment Appeal ruling! nrced.gov.bc.ca/records;keyw...

Get informed! Get involved! How can we stand by and say nothing when #ECCC & #DFO ignore the Fisheries Act while #BC MofE issues 13 WARNINGS, Pollution Order, and validated by an Appeal Board report. Yet, the Feds allow toxic effluent discharge with NO consequence.

Thankyou @wcelaw.bsky.social for supporting our fight to end #shipbreaking in ecologically sensitive areas and for #canada adoption of international shipbeaking regulations! Ecologically sensitive areas should be protected from heavy industrial marine work. One-third of #BC herring spawn here soon.

Hey, here's a thought. Perhaps #BC would be better off as the 51st state. If we were, then #DWR would be shut down. Washington State wouldn't let them #shipbreak, but #BC had no problem. That's one thing the USA does better than Canada 🇨🇦. They have #shipbreaking #regulations. Do better #BC #Canada

@ubcm.bsky.social It is time to stand up! You agreed unanimously: NR48 to petition #BC Gov't for world class #shipbreaking #regulations. #MEC wants to start an #unpermitted facility. Will another coastal community be sacrificed because @bcndpcaucus.bsky.social failed? www.ubcm.ca/convention-r...

#bcpoli #BC must start permitting #shipbeaking facilities! Now! Before another #BC Coastal community suffers from #unregulated #unpermitted #hazardouswaste facility operating with NO #regulations! @gordjohns.bsky.social OMG, what will it take? Zero community consultation! #PortAlberni
February 19, 2025 at 2:31 AM
Do you love #clamchowder & #BaynesSound? Demand #DFO & #ECCC enforce Fisheries Act. 13 Warnings, 1 Pollution Abatement Order & Environment Appeal Board (EAB) decision issued by #BC proves that the #shipbreaking site located in #BaynesSound is discharging heavy metals 1600% over limits.
February 19, 2025 at 12:04 AM
Hey, anyone out there like #clamchowder as much as I do? If so, please support us in ending #shipbreaking #shipretrofits in #BaynesSound, where 68% of #BC shellfish are produced. #DFO #ECCC continues to allow toxic discharge 1600% over limit into marine environment with zero enforcement. #Oysters

This is how close the #shipbreaking site is to #BC residents who were not consulted when #hazardous #waste #shipbreaking facility started. No #permits required. No #regulatory approval. No #shipbreaking #regulations. No gov't overnight. Support @gordjohns.bsky.social for #shipbreaking regulations.
February 17, 2025 at 1:15 AM
I do not understand how anyone from #BaynesSound area remains silent on #unregulated #unpermitted #shipbreaking. 13WARNINGS. 1 Pollution Order. 1 EAB report all state Proven levels higher under #MillerFreeman than at highway. 1600% over toxic limits! #DWR bought site as is where is. #ECCC? #DFO?
February 17, 2025 at 1:07 AM
#WorldWhaleDay #DYK that #herring is critical for #ecosystem in #BC and that #environmentca & #DFO_Pacific allow proven acutely #toxic effluent from #unregulated #unpermitted #shipbreaking into #BaynesSound where one-third of #BC herring spawn?
February 17, 2025 at 12:58 AM
For those #Environmentalists out there, why are you silent? We've provided evidence thru #BC reports of toxic effluent 1600% OVER the limit! How can this be justified at any level? Children at risk due to contamination. If you don't care about #marinelife, what about the families? I'm ashamed of #BC

BC's Ministry of Environment fines Deep Water Recovery for leaching heavy metal effluent into #BaynesSound in its shipbreaking operation. The question is who will enforce it? www.vancouverisawesome.com/highlights/b...
B.C. ship recycler penalized $46,105 for leaking toxic effluent into ocean
The penalties to Deep Water Recovery's Vancouver Island operations come after testing found toxic metal concentrations 160 times the provincial limit.

@comoxvalleyrd.bsky.social @bcndpcaucus.bsky.social #DFO #ECCC Look at this photo,#DYK there's NO permit required to operate a #Shipbreaking facility in #BC? NO permits, no regulations, no oversight & no community consultation before it opens! Now, #acutely #toxic discharge into environment!

A huge shout out to @ngoshipbreaking.bsky.social @wcelaw.bsky.social @gordjohns.bsky.social for supporting #Canada's adoption of international #shipbeaking #regulations. This facility in #BaynesSound should have #permits #regulations #oversight. No #beaching vessels >500GT across foreshore!

#DYK that #Canada has the longest coastline in the world but no regulations to protect it from #unregulated #unpermitted #shipbreaking? Please support @gordjohns.bsky.social & #BaynesSound to stop #toxic #discharge 1600% over limits. @josieosborne.bsky.social
