More Chinook Closures? - 2025 Summer

We got what we voted for .......so sad. Folks here can not complain as it gets taken away, not just for us but all users except for reconciliation. MPA will be a huge issue going forward.

We got what we voted for. A minority government with a real opposition party. Now it is time for the opposition to prove that we all didn't make a mistake. I would like to see the MP for each of the ridings on island especially start making noise.

Where is the North Island MP? That is in his riding? What is the plan here?

This isn't like last time the government has no majority or NDP to back them up. It is though up to us to contact our MP on these issues.

It isn't the reconciliation or any of that. It's the closed door meetings and the government just trying to steamroll this in without proper consultation which is really unfair. There isn't just one user group here.

It seems government will do anything to get to yes with buying votes at expense of small business and the economy of our fisheries.

Yup and once a piece of land or in this case lala land, gets in the hand of parks canada its there forever. Carney is going to make sure it happens. 2030 is such a good plan. Soo goood

Yup, exactly SH. The word is "expropriation" - the word that Parks Canada whitewashes from all it's promotional literature. Really horrible history of Parks Canada doing just that across Canada - esp. out East where it started 1st. Wrong federal agency used to regulate fishing, and the wrong "go-to" tool in the toolbox. It's like using a hammer to finish drywall.

I had to deal with parks canada one time on a property I was trying to buy. There was an outbuilding that was encroached onto the neighboring lot ( parks ). It took alot of effort to talk to the higher ups in the parks department of the city of Delta. To see what the possibility was for selling me a sliver of land so that there was a legal setback from the outbuilding. Long story short, when I did finally talk to the head guy down at city hall, he basically told me there's only one way parks will ever give up property and that's if you trade them up somthing they really want. He said their whole agenda is to aquire land. In their eyes they want all the land. It's messed up. Never bought the property because of that.
