Distracted Drivers: Automobile Dash Clocks have always outnumbered 'hand-held' Wrist Watches

Time has always been an issue when it comes to traveling from point A to point B and C and D and etc..

I don't have the time that Watchismo Times does which lists by years that automobiles have come equipped with the basic dash package, which included the clock, digital or otherwise, right there in front of the driver / passenger line of sight of the road.

 Why is it drivers caught by law enforcement officers today still use the excuse that they were looking for the time on their hand held device, rather that using the dash clock?   The first thing that law enforcement officers should do is to take a photo of the layout of the dash of the vehicle to prove that a clock does exist.   And then declare that the image will be included if it goes to trial.

BC Liberal Leader Andrew Wilkinson's 2018 webpage: 'Your MLAs in the Community' includes Photo Op Queen Premier Christy Clark from 2013

 BC Liberal Caucus website must be short of funding, how else to explain why their new leader is using photos that includes his predecessor, Christy Clark.

 Wilkinson's current 'MLAs' are supposedly from 2017 but some are from 2013 - 2016

To be clear here, the website funding is provided by taxpayers of British Columbia, NOT the BC Liberal Party coffers.  Why are former MLAs who can do absolutely nothing for their former Constituents being used on the website?  Who really cares about Pat Pimm being able to flip burgers back then.

“We might like to be able to magically make the water disappear,” Symonds said. “The only way to get it out of the lake is to have the gates (at Zosel Dam) open and the elevation of the lake drive the water out.”

Wikipedia:

Zosel Dam is a dam in the U.S. state of Washington that blocks the Okanogan River to create the Osoyoos Lake. The dam was built as part of the larger Osoyoos Lake International Water Control Structure, a joint venture of the Washington State Department of Ecology and the British Columbia Ministry of the Environment. The dam was designed by the Canadian firm Acres International Limited and built by the American firm Rognlins Inc.

Dusting off a 40 year old Federal report on Kinder Morgan: 'West Coast Oil Port Inquiry' included BC '3 existing refineries'

In the 1978 version of the proposed Trans Mountain Pipe Line aka Kinder Morgan there were supposed to be three refineries in Burrard Inlet that would justify the volume required for their expansion plans.   The reality in 2018 is the bulk of the petroleum products deviates at Sumas and heads to the US west coast's Cherry Point.  The new, and improved, pipe line is of little benefit to British Columbians when we are continued to be held captive by Ottawa and Alberta.  Where's the benefit for us when he have to pay a higher toll on our needs, of petroleum products, the highest in Canada. 

 1978  West Coast Oil Port Inquiry Statement of Proceedings

Page 8      Issues  Facing the Inquiry

My terms of Reference authorize me to inquire into the environmental, social and navigational safety aspects of oil port proposals and the general public concerns about oil tanker traffic on the west coast of Canada.  There are no inconsequential matters.  I am not to prepare a mere cataloque of concerns or an etiquette of environmental "do's and don't".  Rather, this Inquiry involves what many residents of British Columbia see as life and death issues.  These residents are not extremists.  A great many ordinary citizens of this province are apprehensive.  So far fears about oil spill on this coast are based mostly on fictional scenarios, many of will no doubt prove to be exaggerated when all the evidence is heard. These fears are nonetheless real.   Moreover, I cannot now set these concerns at rest, because I have not been satisfied thus far that a major oil spill in British Columbia coastal waters is unlikely or without the potential for catastrophic consequences.

Because these concerns about a Major oil spill cannot be dismissed, this Inquiry is not merely about the mitigation of adverse environmental, social and navigational safety impacts --    it is about whether an oil port should be built at all!

Page 58

Containment procedures are effective only if deployed quickly, and the equipment only performs satisfactorily in a limited range of wind and current conditions.  Clean-up technology is primitive.

One witness stated only half jokingly that the greatest recent advance in technology that he was aware of was the substitution of long-handled rakes for short-handled ones! 

While detailed evidence about the methods of containment and clean-up is planned to be called in a subsequent phase of the formal hearings, I received first-hand accounts of the efforts to deal with the 20,000 gallon oil spill which occurred at Steveston last August.  At the community hearing we were shown slides depicting the deployment of a boom and the labour of sopping up spilled oil from a skiff using mats of absorbants.  I was given a view from a skiff from a fish boat and could see that the clean-up did not cope with oil saturating the rocky shoreline and clinging to the pilings and beams of docks and buildings.  Polluted march grasses had been dealt with by close-cropping and it was unclear whether the cure or the disease was the greater calamity.

  I cite this evidence to make the point that I am not at all satisfied at this stage in the Inquiry that the Government of Canada is organized to deal effectively with oil spills. There was evident confusion and delay in response to the Steveston spill.  It was disconcerting to discover that at Sooke, a tourist, fishing and logging community on the Strait of Juan de Fuca dependent on a natural harbour of unique beauty, no one could discover from the authorities whether there was any plan for community response to an oil spill or even who would be in charge.

If Kitimat is to become a major North American oil port moving Alaskan oil to U.S. markets it would be placed under the Canada-U.S. Transit Pipeline Treaty brought into force October 1st, 1977.  That treaty is based on two basic principles, uninterrupted transmission of hydrocarbons and non-discrimination.

In the treaty each nation has agreed that it shall not impose any fee, tax or other monetary charge for the use of a pipeline transmitting American hydrocarbons unless it also charges such fee or tax to similar pipelines in its own country.

Page 88

Even if the desirable Canadian energy policy is to construct an oil port at Kitimat, this project should be rejected if the oil spill risks are too high, just as the Americans have rejected Puget Sound locations for transshipment port facilities.

 ... this Inquiry is directed to examine social and economic impacts as well as environmental impacts, and is to study navigational safety and general public concerns about west coast tanker traffic

 Page 112

The second proposal was by Trans Mountain Pipe Line Co. Ltd, which operates the pipeline system that brings Alberta oil from Edmonton to WEST COAST REFINERIES.  Trans Mountain's partner in this proposal was the Atlantic Richfield Co.  (ARCO) which operates a major refinery at Cherry Point, Washington, and is also one of the major producers in the north slope oilfield in Alaska.  This proposal was to deliver oil to expanded ARCO docking facilities at Cherry Point, just a few miles south of the Canada-U.S. border.  The Trans Mountain pipeline system would then be engineered to enable it to receive offshore crude, deliver it to the refineries in the Puget Sound region, and also deliver it into the Trans Mountain system.  This system would operate on an alternating-flow basis to carry the offshore crude oil to Edmonton where is could enter the INTERPROVINCIAL PIPE LINE system for delivery to the northern tier states.  The SCHEME was to continue the flow of Alberta crude oil to British Columbia refineries for part of each month and to reverse the flow for the remainder of the month.

Page 117

The unique characteristic of this type of inquiry is that it is CENTERED ON A MAJOR DEVELOPMENT PROJECT --- in the Berger Inquiry, a northern natural gas pipeline, and in this case a west coast crude oil port.  The novelty is not that hearings have been held into a development project:  in the case of pipelines, the National Energy Board has conducted public hearings into the feasibility of oil and gas pipeline proposals since the Board was established under the National Energy Board Act in 1959.  What is different about the new project-oriented inquiries is the broad ranging scope of their terms of reference.  In requiring an assessment of ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS, these terms of reference can be seen to have their roots in the heightened environmental consciousness that swept North America in the 1960's and, for the United States, manifested itself in the requirement for impact assessment contained in the NATIONAL ENVIRONMENTAL POLICY ACT, 1969 (NEPA).  Indeed, the terms of reference of this Inquiry are even broader in scope than the mandate of that Act because this Inquiry is directed to examine social and economic impacts as well as environmental impacts, and is to study navigational safety and general public concerns about west coast tanker traffic.

I sure wish that today's un-housers of Metro Vancouver could get a handle on their parents scrimping and saving of the 1980's

When the 1980's rolled around along with escalating oil prices from overseas, interest rates were driven sky high on the supply lines to the north american market which were unable to supply our own needs then.  Here we are again. For a country such as Canada not refining our own resources .....  benefits outfits like Kinder Morgan and their fellow American based in their outpost of Calgary.

An oh yeah... Edmonton  too.

August 1981  the keys to houses were being accumulated on an hourly basis by the lending institutions with no one to pick up the tab.   No jobs too.  Restraint Premier Bill Bennett was useless, his vision to balance his Budget was to sell BC Rail.
