Jasper National Park has been my backyard and my playground for 35 years. There isn't a trail in the park that I haven't hiked.
During those 35 years I've seen a lot of mismanagement, but nothing like I've witnessed during the last decade. I've ranted about it it all my videos, talked about it online, discussed it with other users and even written to the staff.
The devastation that's happening right before our eyes was totally predictable. We all saw the hillsides covered in dead, beetle infested pines. Forest are living eco-systems that go through life and death cycles. The fires are natural, but didn't have to be this dramatic. Park managers should have conducted some controlled burns and cleared dead forests.
As usual, everyone is full of prayers. That's not what we need. We need to abandon this woke ideology that has infiltrated all our institutions.
We need heads to roll after this one.
Don't praise the fire chief for his efforts. His primary job is to prevent forest fires, not put them out.
Don't celebrate the the park's superintendent who wanted to rename mountains instead of maintaining a healthy eco system.
Blame the bureaucrates who worried about wheelchair accessible trails instead of fire access roads.
Criticize the politicians who sent billions to the Ukraine meat grinder instead of buying water bombers.
I'm beginning to think this really is by design. Ottawa doesn't want Alberta to have anything nice.
@TODAYshow@SavannahGuthrie How can anyone defend her?! She blatantly lied! Social media was harsh but she still could help but not be truthful. Lost all credibility.
