Do you remember Joni Mitchell's song? Don't it always seem to go … That you don't know what you've got t ill it's gone … They paved paradise a nd put up a parking lot … That is not the case for Howe Sound: we know exactly what we have to lose because we lost it once before.

The Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO) has turned down the Burnco gravel mine twice before. Yet the BC EAO is recommending that the Ministers rubber stamp the project, even though the salmon data being used to assess the project for McNab Creek comes from consultants hired by Burnco.

Our endangered Southern Resident Orcas are starving because there are not enough wild salmon for them to eat. Estuaries provide critical spawning habitat for wild salmon, yet the proposed BURNCO gravel mine threatens one of only three estuaries we have in Howe Sound.

Woodfibre LNG has been awfully quiet lately. What exactly have they been up to? And what are we doing to stop them? Here's the update: What has Woodfibre LNG been up to? Most of the Squamish-based staff at Woodfibre LNG have either quit or been fired. The downtown office is closed most of the time.

Burnco Rock Products wants to build a large scale open pit gravel mine in the McNab Creek watershed in Howe Sound, despite widespread opposition. This highly destructive project threatens McNab Creek, which is one of only three salmon-bearing estuaries in Howe Sound.

Here's a teaser from TOPO Films of our flotilla to Protect Howe Sound on Saturday! It was so incredible to come together as a community with a vision for the future we want.

My Sea to Sky is very proud to be partnering with Patagonia, Howe Sound Biosphere Initiative, and Backbone Campaign to kickstart the launch of our Protect Howe Sound campaign with a flotilla at the Stawamus Waterfront.

Pacific Northwest LNG has announced that it is cancelling its project on Lelu Island, "due to changes in market conditions." The BC Liberals are already blaming the BC NDP, but the reality is that prices for LNG have plummeted more than 70% in the last few years…

Happy 2017 everyone! This year is already shaping up to be a very busy one for My Sea to Sky as we work hard to stop Woodfibre LNG in the lead-up to the Provincial election. ***************** … Protest!

I'd like to take a moment this holiday season to celebrate a few of our successes. In less than three years, we have built a powerful alliance of more than 5,000 people that love Howe Sound as much as we do.
