Once a thriving salmon port, Ucluelet now has just one independent commercial salmon troller left. In this powerful piece, longtime fisherman Dan Edwards traces how policy choices dismantled BC’s small-boat fleet, and why protecting independent owner-operators matters for the future of our coastal communities. https://www.bucksuzuki.org/the_last_salmon_troller_in_ucluelet (fb)

Today we honour the Survivors of residential schools, their families, and the children who never came home. The effects of the residential school system continue to reverberate through the Indigenous communities of BC today. We encourage everyone to take time today to learn from Indigenous voices, reflect on the truths of our shared history, and consider the steps we can take together. https://www2.gov.bc.ca/assets/gov/british-columbians-our-governments/indigenous-people/aboriginal-peoples-documents/calls_to_action_english2.pdf (fb)
