Well, it's civic election time in Saskatoon. We urge all you pelicanistas to ask your candidates what their position is on the White Water Park and Tiny Hydro Dam.
And let them know that our river is not, and never should be, a playground first and bird habitat second. Let's get our priorities straight.
Isn't it time that we asked "what can we do for our river?" and not that pre-global warming question, "what can our river can do for us?" It's time for a new way of thinking about rivers, and about nature in general. Let's make sure that we Saskatonians don't lose our world-class gem--a natural riverbank in the middle of a bustling city.
We've posted a few fun photos by a visitor to our city, Ross Belot, of Hamilton, Ontario. Enjoy!
