Comment on Sidney Northern Gateway Slideshow by Judi Stevenson

Hello Raincoast:
As a long time supporter, I know the quality of the work you do, but even so I was blown away by the excellence and level of information in Brian Falconer’s slide show presentation which I saw on Saturday on Salt Spring (where I live). And I saw what an impact it had, and I wished I could take the slide show with me to other people’s home and to other audiences. So I thought I would suggest that you put together a version that could be made available as a free resource for self- and group-education all over the continent — either using powerpoint or making it into a YouTube video, and including Brian’s narration somehow. He can’t go everywhere, but his information needs to.
Thanks for this — and everything you do!

Comment on Wolves, Caribou, Tar Sands and Canada’s Oily Ethics by G M urray

Greetings from Central Ontario,

Killing wolves…What hyperbolized bs.

I need look no further than in our Town of Kearney to witness such terrible ‘measures’.

Not many years ago, a black bear cub was terrified, climbed a tree, and local #@$#&^@ promptly call MNR for permission to kill this monstrous threat to our small cumminity, and when MNR gave permission, a bunch of locals surrounded the tree and somebody simply used a crossbow to kill it.

Somebody had an empty freezer.

I am disgusted.

We have a small flock of pheasants too, and I set bird seed out. They cuddle in an adjacent field, zooming wherever locals will see them. I am not sure when they too, will be poached.

I hope your efforts will prevail.

Thank you for inviting your website to visit our small place. I will be watchful for any ways we can curtail such wanton abuse of our appreciation for habitat.

More and more seniors are coming this way, and as retirees, share the propriety wisdom to protect our habitat, wolves included, from indiscriminate destruction.

Certain ‘foreign’ indulgences are being overlooked while commercial interests exploit the remaining forests, raping the lakes for what remains of indigenous fishery.

Yours truly

Comment on Raincoast objects to US plan to dart killer whales by Christina Maitland

Can we just let Nature be and stop meddling, poking, prodding, etc? I’m sure most people would absolutely reject to having a satellite tag barbed to them…why should an advanced creature like a whale be any different…we’re all souls in different shaped vessels…♥☼∞

Comment on The Grey: A pack of lies by Adrn

Adrn — Wed, 08 Feb 2012 17:15:04 +0000

Heres the thing, Its a “MOVIE”… a story, there has to be some enemy or foe to make the viewer thrilled…one could say Twilight is an unfair portrayal of vampires, for afterall we know they are dangerous creatures…Wolves have been scary for thousands of years…and if cornered or threatened they “will” attack. They are wild animals and should be respected as such. The movie is not going to create a rash of wolf hunters. I live in Inuvik, the residents up here know wolves better than anybody with a Phd. I watched the movie , I enjoyed the movie…its just a story, a few hours of thrill.
