@VancouverSun Was the captain legal to work in Canada? Was he an employee or being paid under the table? I see no Work Safe registration for this company so no employees?
@pmayvr@CityNewsVAN You assume he felt he was in position to stand up to the corrupt owner. Consider the power balance. He was young and a new immigrant and likely felt he had few options if he wanted to keep his job.
@john_roston1 Iβm not a mariner so this could be wrong, but for what itβs worth this has been circulating on Reddit as a craft last seen in the area of the rescue, having left from Steveston. https://t.co/wtgIlDBcay
@CHEK_News The lesson from this tragedy is that life jackets matter.
Why does @CHEK_News (among others) showcase anglers who choose not wear them? Media have a role to play in normalizing these types of safety measures.
I find it a bit jarring that none of the media reports mentioned the fact that BC's health officer, Dr. Bonnie Henry, is a founding owner of a BC winery and has a lifelong passion for wine. Henry directly profits from sale of what she calls "a leading cause of preventable death."

someone knew. 16 minutes early. $580 million in contracts. the corruption is staggering.
@sam_d_1995 Meanwhile another Mexican Marriott property made the news the other night because their guests were leaving incredibly ill - requiring hospitalization, and being offered incentives if they sign an NDA.

Nothing will get better unless and until we reject the system that prioritizes and protects the ultra wealthy at the expense of everyone and everything else.
