  • BC's Freshwater Fishing with Stacy Webb

    Stacy Webb of the Freshwater Fisheries Society of BC is here to discuss the health of the province's freshwater fish stock and habitat.

    The Freshwater Fisheries Society of BC is a private, non-profit organization created to enhance and conserve BC's freshwater fisheries for public benefit. BC is home to some of the finest freshwater fishing in the world. Each year, over $300,000 licensed anglers spend around $500M in BC, predominantly in rural and remote areas. That being said, in 2018, the program ran a deficit of $700K, and all hands point towards the incredibly low cost of an annual fishing license, which is set by the Ministry of Forests, Lands, & Natural Resources. This organization needs funding to maintain habitats, and to protect fish populations, including endangered fish species such as the white sturgeon.

  • Opiods & Vaping with Mark Tyndall

    In 2018, overdoses in BC killed over 1500 people. Fentanyl is so rampant in Vancouver that it’s rare to come across an addict who still uses heroin on a regular basis. Walk through the Downtown East Side after welfare payment day and you’ll see collapsed bodies leaning against walls on every street. It’s an epidemic, and one that is not being addressed properly.
