@thetyee That guy and his betrayal on #SiteC and his embrace of coal speak volumes.

@Sanderde
No, actually. But that seems totally on-point. Same with hydro here in B.C., ratepayers subsidize industry. #SiteC

@dyckron

This project should never have moved forward once the BCNDP came into power. A great read, thanks Laila Yuile.

When Government Gaslighting Becomes Policy: The Cost of Official Denial revealed in new ‘Site C Lessons Learned’ report.

Independent observers documented risks years ago, yet public messaging cast doubt on reality itself — until evidence could no longer be ignored.

WorkSafeBC investigated suspicions that workers at the #SiteC dam were discouraged from reporting injuries, but in May cleared the project. Andrew MacLeod reports. #bcpoli

How BC Megaprojects Were Cleared of Suppressing Injured Workers’ Claims | The Tyee

Site C, LNG Canada and pipelines were probed for failing to report job-related medical incidents. A Tyee exclusive.

"Carney was the United Nations Special Envoy on Climate Action and Finance and was behind the UN-backed Net-Zero Banking Alliance, so some Canadians might have assumed he’d prioritize climate action if he won the election.

"Instead, Carney has described developing fossil fuel infrastructure as 'pragmatic.'"

2017: the #bcndp talked about viable green energy, then pushed #sitec, #fracking, #lng

@thegreenpagesBC

Did #BC just flood the #PeaceValley to use #SiteC Dam power for LNG and an Bell/Grok AI data cluster?

Is this the start of US corporations drinking our water for memes of Will Smith eating spaghetti?

This is disturbing behaviour from our province. #BCNDP have clearly forgotten that they are on a razor’s edge and can be voted out easily.

Eby continues to embrace #LNG extraction in the wake of #TMX, #SiteC, #FairyCreek and now Elon’s #AI Data Centers will be drinking our water?

This #BCNDP is clearly no better than destructive #Conservatives, if they continue down this path they’ve lost my vote.

Trump is not an excuse to openly rape our Province for profit, #Eby is completely out of line and no different than #Horgan.

@[email protected] Putin didn't take all of Ukraine, just a tasty easy morsel. Each time.

#BigHands takes BC, he gets all Canada's Pacific ports, 12 Columbia dams and millions of trees, oil, gas, coal, and the switch to the #SiteC

This major leak is at the #SiteC dam, even if video is unlabelled. It shows leaks in a penstock (intake pipe) that brings water down from the reservoir & into the concrete powerhouse to feed a turbine. The concrete at bottom left is the "buttress" or large concrete structure that houses the turbines and powerhouse.

Recall: the buttress was sliding 1mm per day back in 2021 & had to be shored up $$$$. If this leak is caused by the buttress still settling, that extra $8 bn didn't work.
