Especially all of you millennials and such!

There is every reason to believe that Stephen Harper is going to make an election call this Sunday; after that, the entire country will be in an election campaign for the next two and half months.

Stephen Harper is going to try everything he can to stay in power in spite of being awful, but literally his entire reelection strategy depends on millennials staying home on election day.

I therefore urge every last one of you over the age of 18 to go to the Elections Canada website (here) and register yourself to vote.

Please spread this around! Even if you are not Canadian, please signal boost!

The review into the April Vancouver oil spill that spread from English Bay finds the grain ship’s owners slowed the reaction time to the emergency because they refused to admit the vessel was the source of the fuel spill.

The report was commissioned by the Canadian Coast Guard after a malfunction on the grain carrier MV Marathassa caused about 2,700 litres of bunker fuel to spill into the bay on April 8.

The report released Friday also found uncertainty of roles and responsibilities, miscommunications and technical difficulties resulted in an almost two-hour delay in response after the slick’s discovery.
