Please submit a public comment opposing Woodfibre LNG's proposal to reduce the exclusion area for seals & sea lions from the required 7km to a mere 125m during construction, exposing them to noise levels that can cause both temporary & permanent hearing loss & alter behaviour.

You can submit public comments until Jan 30: iaac-aeic.gc.ca/050/evaluation

Talking points:
-decision should be delayed until release of DFO Ocean Noise Strategy later this year
-seals & sea lions susceptible to noise above & below surface
-Howe Sound is a UNESCO biosphere region

Please also sign the petition to oppose the project here: myseatosky.org/take-action/sig
And share with friends and family!

Kitchen window view this morning. Looking out over Átl'ka7tsem (Howe Sound) north of Vancouver. Átl'ka7tsem (pronounced At-Kat-sum) is the Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish) word for paddling up the Sound

Ever curious, the raven is watching the activities of the humans. Realizing that no free food was forthcoming, the raven flew off.

“The return of slhawt’ restores relationships between the fish and other species, including the humans who may encourage or impede their survival.”

Great feature by Hakai Magazine on the Search for Slhawt’ project in Átl’ḵa7tsem: hakaimagazine.com/features/wel
