I would highly support the effectiveness of the Coast Guard's communication abilities. They have done a fantastic job of keeping not only indigenous but also non-indigenous peoples along the coast exceptionally well informed through consistent releases and updates.
It's the Province of British Columbia as well. It hasn't been just the Coast Guard. Both the province and the Coast Guard have issued regular reports and have been extremely accessible by email or phone when any updates or information was sought by either our group or others along the coast.
