Trump administration 2024-2028

The BC forest sector needs to invest in machinery so they can fill orders from other parts of the world and maybe the government can lend a helping hand to move them towards this.

One of the main issues is that there are no NDP MLAs in the rural/forest sector dependent parts BC.

None of the latte sipping, NDP voting, man bun/ Birkenstock wearing, tree hugging folks in urban BC care.

So the BC NDPs have out-Toronto’d Toronto?
 
Lots of questions regarding this interaction between the USCG and a Quebec fisherman.


The Coasties are typically better mariners than the USN and overall nicer people so this whole incident is weird.
 
Maybe he actually was in the US?

Quick map recce says there are multiple reference points to identify where the boundary exists (the Missisquoi Delta and the point just to the west of it, come to mind).

If the gentleman is correct in that he knows the area and has fished there before, I am likely to believe him that the USCG erred in their assessment of the situation.
 
I refer you to my post in the Canada/US Border Integrity thread.

FSTO: There is little current in Missisquoi Bay as it is not connected to the Richelieu River. Any current there comes from the Missisquoi River, which is a pretty trickle at this time of the year. Moreover, in the Richelieu River affected portion, the current makes you drift towards Canada, not the US. The Richelieu River empties the Lake Champlain into the St. Lawrence River, not the other way around.

You seem familiar with the area, do you think its more plausible he ended up in the States accidentally, was there illegally or the Coasties accidentally entered Canada?

Yep, probably worse to some extent. Price of urban real estate/cost of living has extended the latte sippers’ influence due to urban sprawl. No better example for this than Squamish. More like North/West Vancouver than the Squamish of even twenty years ago. My aunt and uncle who had been there since ‘79 couldn’t take it anymore and moved to Sechelt.
