Shared article from "The Province" pinned to the top on X with NDP's Fin Donnelly:

B.C. takes a bold, positive step with watersheds initiative | The Province

"Following the 2020 provincial election, Premier John Horgan instructed his ministers to make good on their election promises to create a new B.C. watershed security strategy, backed by a B.C. watershed security fund. These commitments have landed in the mandates of Environment Minister George Heyman, Minister of State for Lands and Natural Resource Operations Nathan Cullen and Parliamentary Secretary for Fisheries and Aquaculture Fin Donnelly, all of whom have shown themselves to be real water champions."


More environmentalism means less freedom for the people...

"40th Parliament

Donnelly entered the 40th Canadian Parliament during its third session, which lasted one year; he was named the NDP's national fisheries critic.[21] During that year he sponsored six private member bills, none of which advanced far enough to be voted upon. He sponsored two amendments to the Criminal Code, both of which Dawn Black had previously introduced in the previous parliament: Bill C-520 would have added the offence of luring a child to those offenses prosecutable in Canada even if committed outside Canada, and Bill C-521 would have expanded the offence of luring a child to include all means of communication rather than solely through a computer.[22] In March 2010, he introduced Bill C-502 that would prohibit oil tankers in the Dixon EntranceHecate Strait and Queen Charlotte Sound. In May 2010, he introduced Bill C-518 which proposed to amend the Fisheries Act to require commercial finfish aquaculture only take place in closed containment facilities. He also proposed Bill C-526 that would have expanded Employment Insurance coverage received as a result of illness, injury or quarantine from 15 to 52 weeks."



Seems like an award from Terra Carra Chuck cannot be far away for Fin Donnelly:

DescriptionAs a long-time resident, former city councillor and Member of Parliament for Coquitlam, Fin knows and understands our community. He has seen the devastating impact COVID-19 has had on his neighbours and local businesses. With his extensive political and community experience, Fin is ready to help John Horgan and the BC NDP ensure a stable recovery and stronger BC for everyone. Prior to being elected in 2002, Fin was a well-known community and environmental advocate completing 14 environmental marathon swims, including twice swimming the 1,375 km length of the Fraser River. Fin was honoured by the Squamish Nation for his stewardship work, and given the name, Iyim Yewyews, which means Orca or “strong swimmer in the animal world." Fin is the founder of the Rivershed Society of BC and lives in Coquitlam with his wife Lynda."
