That's a great question.
It just seems to be a general process that we get a lot of people, in terms of consultation, coming in and it seems as though they're just note-takers. They come in and they list our concerns, but nothing meaningful is ever done about our concerns, whether they're environmental—and we have our own economic concerns as well, but typically those aren't put in the same light as, say, pushing forward the Trans Mountain pipeline, which is for the benefit for all Canadians. As far as we as a coastal community are concerned, it's nothing but impacts and it's nothing but an infringement on our rights and title.
I brought up the southern resident killer whales because that's a very obvious example, so I'll use it again, but there are others. There are simply these extreme environmental risks that aren't being acted upon sufficiently.
I know there was a recommendation from ministers to enact emergency measures to protect the orcas, which didn't go ahead, which is really unfortunate, but there has to be some other way to have these kinds of concerns addressed meaningfully and really urgently.
I, for one, am quite terrified about the climate report that came out recently. It's frustrating for me to hear that we just need to get our resources out of the ground. Just because they're there doesn't mean they need to be exploited. We need to find something more sustainable and something that really considers longevity of the environment and reclamation of rights and title.
