As many have said—‘you can’t make this stuff up!'
Joe Oliver comes to town for a ‘photo op’ of BC’s pride of the clean up
fleet! ...presumably to show the world how we intend to develop/create ‘a World
Class Tanker Safety System’..Craig McInnes must have had difficulty writing this
without the occasional fit of laughter...’slap stick’ for sure..
Questions
1.why is this critical piece equipment (the BURRARD Cleaner No. 9) kept
in Esquimalt---I thought the congested oil tanker traffic was in Vancouver
harbour??
2.we have had no serious oil spill situations –great but was that more a
matter of dumb luck
3.this ‘pride of BC clean up vessel’ apparently ‘got lost’ on the way to
Burrard Inlet...and goes aground on a Fraser river sand bar—slightly off course
and apparently unable to operate the high tech sounder on board??
4.this incident reinforces the idea that ships rarely sink or founder
unless assisted by the crew!
5.and on and on---No, this this not funny---but it is VERY SAD to see this
Looney Tunes operation up close.
Poor Joe for sure...what can you say..
Remember your own famous words Mr. Harper—‘’science
,NOT
POLITICS, should
help us to decide...’
Are there any scientists left
