Podcast appearances and mentions of clyde river

This episode navigates this question using an associative method which links stories and sounds, forming a non-linear audio collage. Listeners are invited to tune in to their affective and embodied responses to end time stories including Lulu Miller's podcast and Kiyoshi Kurosawa's horror film, and stories of endurance, with Kathy Jetñil-Kijiner's poem and Tanya Tagaq's audiobook.Nadège Paquette (she/they) is a white settler living in Tiotià:ke/Montréal, on the lands and waters of the Kanien'kehá:ka Nation, where they are completing a master's degree in English Literature at Concordia University. Their research interests aggregate around the relationship between human and nonhuman forms of life and nonlife. They are drawn to narratives of the future extrapolating present troubles and delving into already-existing Indigenous, decolonial, queer, and non-anthropocentric alternatives to a colonial and capitalist world. For them, some of those alternative worlds take the form of collective gardens where they love to work with plants, soil, water, animal, and human neighbors.*Show NotesMusic:Tom Bonheur https://www.instagram.com/dj.g3ntil/Kovd, Kvelden, Tell What You Know, Ivory Pillow, and Fever Creep by Blue Dot Sessions https://app.sessions.blue/Podcast:“The Wordless Place” Lulu Miller https://radiolab.org/podcast/wordless-place“Why Podcast?” Hannah McGregor and Stacey Copeland https://kairos.technorhetoric.net/27.1/topoi/mcgregor-copeland/index.htmlShort Film:Anointed, Kathy Jetñil-Kijiner and Dan Lin https://www.kathyjetnilkijiner.com/videos-featuring-kathy/Film:Pulse, Kiyoshi KurosawaAdditional sounds from:“Interview with Tanya Tagaq,” Alicia Atout https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FupatQbcTeM“Open Dialogues: Daniel Heath Justice,” Centre for Teaching, Learning, and Technology https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VrBN8_IGuuw“Monster 怪物,” United for Peace Film Festival https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m8OJulGi1Rg*Works CitedBouich, Abdenour. 2021. “Coeval Worlds, Alter/Native Words.” Transmotion 7 (2). https://doi.org/10.22024/UniKent/03/tm.980.Butler, Judith. 2003. “Violence, Mourning, Politics.” Studies in Gender and Sexuality 4 (1): 9–37. https://doi.org/10.1080/15240650409349213.Chion, Michel. 2017.

This our ancestors did, according to the reckoning of our culture, from the Creation, according to the common law from ‘time immemorial', and according to science more than 60,000 years ago.This sovereignty is spiritual notion: the ancestral tie between the land, or ‘mother nature', and the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples who were born therefrom, remain attached thereto, and must one day return thither to be united with our ancestors. This link is the basis of the ownership of the soil, or better, of sovereignty. It has never been ceded or extinguished, and co-exists with the sovereignty of the Crown.How could it be otherwise? That peoples possessed a land for sixty millennia and this sacred link disappears from world history in merely the last two hundred years?With substantive constitutional change and structural reform, we believe this ancient sovereignty can shine through as a fuller expression of Australia's nationhood.Proportionally, we are the most incarcerated people on the planet. We are not an innately criminal people. Our children are aliened from their families at unprecedented rates. This cannot be because we have no love for them. And our youth languish in detention in obscene numbers. They should be our hope for the future.These dimensions of our crisis tell plainly the structural nature of our problem. This is the torment of our powerlessness.We seek constitutional reforms to empower our people and take a rightful place in our own country. When we have power over our destiny our children will flourish. They will walk in two worlds and their culture will be a gift to their country.We call for the establishment of a First Nations Voice enshrined in the Constitution.Makarrata is the culmination of our agenda: the coming together after a struggle. It captures our aspirations for a fair and truthful relationship with the people of Australia and a better future for our children based on justice and self-determination.We seek a Makarrata Commission to supervise a process of agreement-making between governments and First Nations and truth-telling about our history.In 1967 we were counted, in 2017 we seek to be heard. We leave base camp and start our trek across this vast country. We invite you to walk with us in a movement of the Australian people for a better future.Proposed addition to the Constitution:                   In recognition of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples as the First Peoples of Australia:                      (i)  there shall be a body, to be called the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Voice;                     (ii)  the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Voice may make representations to the Parliament and the Executive Government of the Commonwealth on matters relating to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples;                    (iii)  the Parliament shall, subject to this Constitution, have power to make laws with respect to matters relating to the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Voice, including its composition, functions, powers and procedures.---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Transcript of Earth Matters #1417  Uncle Bunja Smith " A vote for Yes is a vote for hope and opportunity".                                    43 Climate Movement groups agree.  Rebecca: Welcome to Earth Matters, environmental justice stories from Australia &and around the world. This story was produced on the land of the Walbunja people of the Yuin nation supported by radio 3CR on Wurundjeri Country, in Melbourne, and broadcast across this continent via the Community Radio Network. Hello, I'm the show host Bec Horridge. I pay my respects to the elders, past, present, and emerging. Uncle Bunja:        I think:                              “A vote for Yes is a vote for hope and opportunity, whereas a vote for NO just gives me more of the same, so you wanna be in the tent or you wanna be outside the tent throwing rocks throwing rocks at it? The choice is yours.” Id rather be in the tent and change the system from the inside”  Rebecca:       That's today's guest Walbunja Elder with Uncle Bunja Smith. He wants to see a permanent                            voice to parliament so we might be able to close the gap. Rebecca:       Here we are in Yuin country with Uncle Bunja Smith. Jamaka bumbalaga!                      Uncle Bunja:    Jamaka bumbalaga! Rebecca Rebecca:            And we're looking over Bhundoo, which is The Clyde River, it's actually known as one   of the least polluted waterways of any major river in Australia. Welcome to Earth Matters, Uncle Bunja Smith.   Uncle Bunja:         Thank you. Thank you so much, Rebecca. And yes, the Bhundoo, while it is recognised as one of the least polluted rivers, I noticed it change, the cycle of life was affected in the bushfires. The bushfires actually cleared a lot of land at the top of the river and then following the bushfires, we had heavy rain and all that soil had to go somewhere. So, it washed down the river. It affected the oysters; it affected the fish.  I hadn't seen any porpoises or dolphins in the Bundhoo for quite a while since the bushfires and it was only approximately two weeks ago that I saw dolphins swimming at Caseys Beach. So, I can say from that that life is returning but it was heavily affected by the bushfires and the following rains. Rebecca:               Uncle Bunja Smith has a lifetime of experience working with Aboriginal people and the whole community and he's been speaking around Yuin country, the South Coast area, asking people to become informed, at least about what the Voice is. Let's dive in, Uncle, and could you just tell me a bit about the Voice?  Uncle Bunja:         The history is that since the Gough Whitlam government, we have had a voice to parliament in the form of an advisory body in one way, shape or form and the issue with that is that every time we had a change of government, we have a change of advisory. It started with the NACC, the National Aboriginal Consultative Committee, under Gough Whitlam.  Then when Malcolm Fraser took over, he changed it and it became the NAC, the National Aboriginal Congress. Then the NAC, under the Hawke government, was abolished and a couple of years later, Hawke established ATSIC.  So, it appears that every time we get a change of government, as I said, we get a change of advisory and Aboriginal people are getting tired of this because it's not working. Probably because one reason is that they throw the baby out with the bathwater. I think advisories are good and necessary but when you continually change it for your own benefit, not the people's benefit, then it's derogatory, it doesn't work for us.  Now, what's happened is in and around 2016, 2017, there was a movement from the people around the Redfern Statement and there was also movement from government, wondering or questioning how can we get Aboriginal people into the constitution? And if you remember, John Howard wanted to put us in the preamble.  So, going way back to then, there has been discussions around putting Aboriginal people in the constitution and what does it look like? How will we do it? And a group of 250 Aboriginal leaders at the time were gathered, paid for by the government to go to Uluru and have a constitutional convention. That's what they were there for. They were there to discuss how to get Aboriginal people into the constitution.  Now, whenever you get a large crowd of anybody together, it's very hard to get consensus because everyone is going to be a different opinion. Some will like blue, some will like green, some will like yellow and that's what makes us rich is that we have all these different opinions, ideas and it's how to work together.  So after gathering for quite a few days and discussing quite a lot of things, including treaty, they came up with a one page document called the Uluru Statement and that's where it was born from. From a constitutional convention at Uluru in 2017 and it was given, presented as a gift for all of Australia. It suggested three things. It called for truth telling. It called for Makarrata, and it also called for a voice to parliament enshrined in the constitution.  So, I wasn't amongst them, and a lot of people weren't. There were only 250 representatives of Aboriginal people from all around Australia. So that's a reasonable representation of Aboriginal people and this is what they came up with was the Uluru Statement.  Now, just because I didn't write a Sally Morgan book doesn't mean that I don't love it, doesn't mean that I don't love the writing. I had nothing to do with the Uluru Statement but I've adopted it. I love it. It's a love letter from Aboriginal people to the broader Australian community. It is saying we want to work with you to make everything better for everyone and, in particular, Aboriginal people. We want the truth to be told.  So that is the history and the genesis of where we have come to and now remember that was 2017 and the government at the time was Malcolm Turnbull. His government funded that trip to Uluru and then when they came back with the Uluru Statement, he said, “Thank you very much” and he shelved it. He didn't want to do anything with it. It was too much for him. He said, “The people will never vote yes for a referendum” and then Malcolm Turnbull handed over – well, he got taken over. He got taken over by Scott Morrison and again Scott Morrison didn't want anything to do with the Uluru Statement.  So we had an election not so long ago and one of the platforms that the Labor government stood on was that they would act on the Uluru Statement. Now, there's three parts to it and when you look at it, the most sensible part for me is a voice because with a voice, we can start the truth telling and we can navigate the complex road to treaty. But you must start with communication. You must start with a voice.  So Anthony Albanese said that he would act on it and he has done that. He has now called a referendum of the people of Australia to ask should a voice to parliament be instilled in the constitution? Now, if you have a look at the ballot paper, that is proposed ballot paper, that's all it's asking people. “Yes or no, do you want a voice to parliament?” Have a look at it, it's on the Voice website, OK.  Rebecca:               OK.  Uncle Bunja:        And that's the question that you're being asked to vote yes or no on. But also on the website, you will see how the constitution will be changed. Now, all it is doing is instilling a voice, a voice to parliament. It's not putting me in the constitution, it's putting a voice in the constitution. So it's a very interesting thing to look at and I encourage people to do that, to have a good look at what's being proposed and fact check everything for themselves.  Dad always told me, he said, “Son,” he said, “Believe nothing of what you hear and half of what you see.” And that's what people have got to do. They've got to do a little bit of research to get to the truth of this matter. Sadly, there's a lot of mistruths and ugliness happening around encouraging people that this is a bad thing. No, I don't believe it's a bad thing.  Remember that when you look at it, it is not Aboriginal people being put in the constitution, it's an Aboriginal voice that will be put in the constitution and I think that's a good thing because as a start, you must have a dialogue. You must have an avenue of communication. That's a voice. So, it's a great place to start. I don't think it's perfect but I think it's the step, the right step in the right direction.  Now, it gets a little bit more complex, Rebecca. The Voice, while permanent in the constitution, the make-up, the model can always be changed by successive governments because they will have the power of what the Voice looks like. But they must have a voice.  So, it's caused a lot of consternation and a lot of anger, a lot of resentment, a lot of confusion, but the sadness for me is that it's also thrown a spotlight on racism in Australia. On Facebook recently there was a post that said, “First comes the Voice, then comes the invoice.” It wasn't so much that comment that worried me, it was the comments from the people underneath on Facebook.  One of them from a lady said, “We should charge them for using our” – actually quote, “We should invoice them for using our infrastructure.” Then someone replied to her, “Yes, maybe they will go back and live in bark huts.” This is out there and this is truth. So that's what saddens me is that it has got down to that level of ugliness. It's a Voice to parliament that I believe will be a communication road and the government of the day does not have to take the Voice's advice. It does not have a veto power.  So, some people are saying – some Aboriginal people are saying, “Well, it's a white elephant. If they don't have to take the advice, what's the good of it?” Well, I think something is better than nothing. I think a vote for yes is a vote for hope and opportunity, whereas a vote for no just gives me more of the same. So, do you want to be in the tent or you want to be outside the tent, throwing rocks at it? The choice is yours. I'd rather be in the tent and change the system from the inside.  Rebecca:               Uncle Bunja Smith, I'm so grateful that you've come to talk to me and everybody here at Earth Matters. There's a lot more I could learn and I'm hoping so much to have you and your friends on the show later in the year. Walawaani. Uncle Bunja:         Walawaani, Rebecca and, look, thank you so much and yes, I've actually had a long history with 3CR. Going back to the 80s, I was a student of Koori College in Northcote, we had the radio show on 3CR way back then.  Rebecca:               Wow.  Uncle Bunja:         The Aboriginal program and I was a part of that. So 3CR has a special place in my heart and I say my respects to the elders and tribes people  of the local area, and I thank you for having me on the show. Go well. In my language, Walawaani means safe journey. So Walawaani all my brothers and sisters out there. Take care and care for Mother Earth.  Rebecca:The Australian climate movement has thrown its support behind writing Yes to the voice. 43 climate organisations and groups representing a movement of over two million Australians, who are into a healthy climate and thriving envirionment and are rooted in the values of justice and fairness  signed a public letter supporting YES to the Voice. Here is the statement they endorsed. These groups include World Wildlife Fund, Oxfam, Getup, Greenpeace, Climate Council Australian Parents for Climate Action, the Australia Institute, Tipping Point and so many other groups are supporting the Yes vote on Oct 14. Id like to read you the statement they recently put out.  The Australian Climate Movement Supports Writing Yes to the Voice Australia is home to the oldest continuous culture on Earth. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people have been caring for Country for millennia. First Nations people are the first scientists and leaders in nature restoration, land management and climate solutions. We stand together as leaders representing a movement of over two million Australians whose commitment to a healthy climate and thriving environment is rooted in the shared values of justice, equality, and fairness.  Australians are being asked to vote in a referendum to recognise Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in the Constitution and establish an Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Voice. We wholeheartedly support writing YES in this referendum. By writing YES, we support a pathway for meaningful, transformative change. This referendum calls upon us to reflect upon our colonial history and envision a future where First Nations justice, truth-telling and Treaty help us move towards a brighter future, together.  We know what it takes to demand ambitious change and challenge entrenched systems. We lead movements that bravely challenge the status quo. The Australian climate movement has stood up to vested interest groups attempting to impede meaningful action on climate change in this country. These same political culture wars are now attempting to fuel racism and divide us. Our support for writing YES is based on the fundamental principle that laws and policies are more effective when those who are affected by them have a voice.  We firmly believe in demanding substantive change rather than mere symbolism, and we view this referendum as a step in the right direction. History has shown us that previous representative bodies for First Nations peoples have been dismantled by the government of the day at will.  By writing YES in the referendum, Australians everywhere can establish a permanent representative body that boldly advocates for the needs and aspirations of First Nations people.  Recognising and respecting the knowledge, cultures, stories, and languages of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples will help us move forward from our past and progress together towards a brighter future. First Nations communities are at the front line of climate impacts in this country.  There is no climate justice without First Nations justice. By ensuring that First Nations communities are represented in shaping national policies, we can achieve better health, environment, and climate outcomes.  We encourage all Australians to listen with an open heart and mind through this historic moment. Together we share a vision for the future as a nation that values justice, equity and fairness for all people. Together, let us write YES. And that is the statement endorsed by 43 climate groups, some of the biggest groups and some of the most effective groups. Find online details about the Voice at voice.gov.au Youve been listening to Earth Matters, community radios national environment and justice programme.

Imagine a knock on your door from someone telling you to gather your stuff and go because a wildfire is headed your way. It's a scenario that played out for hundreds of homeowners in the Halifax area in the last twenty four hours. And while there may be fewer people living in Shelburne County, they are dealing with a wildfire that's ten times as large as the one in HRM. Sam Brannen posted a video to her social media page recently as she was capturing what could have been the last images of her Clyde River home as they evacuated. It's still standing, and she has some advice for all of us who think “it will never happen to me”.

Welcome to Majority.FM's AM QUICKIE! Brought to you by justcoffee.coop TODAY'S HEADLINES: Senators yesterday voted to proceed with the second impeachment trial of Donald Trump after watching dramatic videos of last month’s insurrection. Democrats will begin presenting formal arguments later today. Meanwhile, Lloyd Austin, the first black secretary of defense, is trying urgently to curtail right- wing extremism in the military ranks. But first the Pentagon needs to figure out how to track the problem. And lastly, a small group of Inuit hunters in remote northern Canada has blockaded an iron mine that threatens their food supply. It’s an inspirational story that should also make you feel relatively warmer this winter, wherever you are. THESE ARE THE STORIES YOU NEED TO KNOW: Let’s get up to speed on Donald Trump’s second impeachment trial, via the New York Times. Yesterday the Senate voted to proceed with the trial. The vote was a rejection of Trump’s defense team’s claim that it would be unconstitutional to prosecute a president after leaving office. But the final tally signaled that his Republican allies could muster enough support to potentially block the two-thirds necessary for conviction. The fifty six-to-forty four vote, with six Republicans joining all fifty Democrats, paved the way for House Democrats to formally open their arguments this afternoon. They are seeking to prove that Trump incited an insurrection by encouraging supporters who stormed the Capitol last month. According to the Times, yesterday’s vote came after House managers moved immediately to their most powerful evidence: the explicit visual record of the deadly Capitol siege, juxtaposed against Trump’s own words encouraging members of the mob at a rally beforehand. On the screens, senators saw extremists storming barricades, beating police officers, setting up a gallows and yelling, Take the building, Fight for Trump and Pence is a traitor! Traitor Pence! Representative Joe Neguse of Colorado, a House impeachment manager, told senators QUOTE Presidents can’t inflame insurrection in their final weeks and then walk away like nothing happened ENDQUOTE. Trump’s lawyers argued that his words at the rally on January 6th constituted free speech akin to typical political language and hardly incited the violence, the Times reports. They condemned the violence but rejected the suggestion that Trump was responsible for it. They maintained that the Constitution did not permit an impeachment trial of a former president because it was meant to lead to removal, which is now moot. If he committed a crime, they said, he could be prosecuted criminally. Excellent suggestion – let’s do that next. Pentagon Tackles Soldiers' Extremism How do we prevent the next insurrection? Among the one hundred and ninety people charged in the Capitol siege, at least thirty are veterans, the Washington Post reports. Now Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin is facing an early test as he races to advance a major initiative targeting far-right extremism in the ranks. The military is slated to pause normal operations in coming weeks so troops can discuss internal support for extremist movements. Austin’s highly unusual order for a military-wide stand-down underscores the urgency of the task ahead. Even as they seek to get the effort off the ground, the Post says, Pentagon officials are grappling with legal and institutional issues. First among the challenges for Austin and his aides is the lack of centralized means of tracking incidence of extremism. Last month, Pentagon officials said the FBI had informed them about sixty-eight domestic extremism cases in 2020 involving current or former troops. Little other data exists. One reason for the military’s limited understanding of the problem is that current rules permit troops to join extremist organizations, so long as they don’t become active members who fundraise, recruit or take part in other prohibited activities. While the distinction is rooted in troops’ First Amendment rights, it means supporters of extremist causes can go undetected. What’s more, the Post reports, some extremism experts say the military’s screening procedures for recruits are insufficient. Lawmakers including California Democratic Congresswoman Jackie Speier are calling for stronger screening of social media for service members. Speier chairs the House Armed Services’ military personnel subcommittee. Under her proposal, recruits would be required to provide social media handles when they apply for security clearances. Wait, they don’t check those already? Crazy. Inuit Hunters Blockade Mine Here’s a remarkable tale of community organizing. A group of Inuit hunters have braved nearly a week of freezing temperatures to blockade a remote iron mine in northern Canada, the Guardian reports. The hunters are protesting an expansion plan they say will harm local wildlife. The blockade has prompted solidarity rallies in other Nunavut communities. Since February 5th, seven hunters have created a makeshift barrier of snowmobiles and sleds to block the airstrip and service road of the Mary River ore mine, halting operations. Temperatures in recent days have dipped to twenty degrees below zero, Farenheit. At issue are controversial plans drawn up by the mine’s operator, Baffinland Iron Mines Corporation, to double output, the Guardian reports. To bring twelve million tons of iron ore to market, the mine has said it needs to build a railway to a port near the community of Pond Inlet. But hunters have pushed back over fears that the expansion could threaten the populations of caribou and narwhal – two key sources of food – if approved. As the standoff entered its fifth day, seven hundred workers were stranded at the Mary River site, according to the Guardian. The company claims the blockade on the airstrip means food supplies cannot be delivered. Residents of Clyde River plan to bring supplies to the Mary River protesters in the coming days, a journey that could take three days by snowmobile and requires travellers to brave mountain valleys and perilous sections of ice. Jerry Natanine, mayor of Clyde River, said QUOTE We’ve been clearly and repeatedly telling the mine that their plans were unacceptable. And they haven’t listened to any of our suggestions. So now we’re left fighting for our culture and way of life ENDQUOTE. Solidarity with the Inuit hunters. AND NOW FOR SOME QUICKER QUICKIES: Joe Biden, along with vice president Kamala Harris and Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen, met with corporate executives at the White House yesterday. It was an attempt to rally support for Biden’s $1.9 trillion coronavirus relief bill. Those invited included Jamie Dimon of JPMorgan Chase, Tom Donohue of the US Chamber of Commerce, and Doug McMillon of Walmart. What a diverse crew. I guess the Monopoly Man wasn’t available. It is extremely unlikely that the coronavirus leaked from a lab in the Chinese city of Wuhan, where Covid-19 first emerged, NBC News reports. The new assessment comes from the head of a team of experts that yesterday released details of its fact-finding mission into the virus's origins. Doctor Peter Ben Embarek from the World Health Organization said it was more likely that the virus had jumped to humans from an animal – possibly bats. Take heed and don’t cuddle up with those those furry, winged fiends. The Biden administration yesterday asked the remaining US attorneys appointed by Donald Trump and confirmed by the Senate to submit their resignations, the Washington Post reports. The request applies to fifty-five federal prosecutors and spared only two, who are conducting politically sensitive probes, including of President Biden’s son. One way or another, Hunter Biden is going to stay in the news. German prosecutors have charged a one hundred-year-old man with three thousand, five hundred and eighteen counts of accessory to murder, the Guardian reports. The man served during the second world war as a Nazi SS guard at a concentration camp on the outskirts of Berlin. His name was not released. The prosecutor called him QUOTE part of the functioning of [a] machinery of death ENDQUOTE. Old fascists are still bound to lose.

Our guest on this episode is Chris "Critta" Hayward and Chris "Lord Wildlife" Zinon :)We originally met with these legends at the start of November 2019 to discuss their planned trip through the Budawangs from the top of the Clyde river down to the ocean. They wanted different local characters to join in to show off the beautiful country we are a part of and wanted Treading Lightly to be a part of it. We absolutely loved these genuine fellas and wanted them on the podcast.Since then the fires have come through and the podcast took an even more meaningful purpose. They rolled up their sleeves when fire threatened and were also a part of the community that rallied together to help people in need. They came on to report what they've seen out on the land post fires and to share their personal experiences during that time and where they've placed their energy into recovering personally.A great discussion on what we can learn and prevent another disaster and how do we better manage the land and our community to create a more sustainable future.Enjoy the sound of the rain in the background!Take a snapshot of your phone screen while listening to the show and post to Instagram with #treadinglightlyincTreading LightlyFacebook | https://www.facebook.com/TreadingLightlyInc/Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/treading_lightly_inc/Big Nature AdventuresFacebook | https://www.facebook.com/bignatureadventures/Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/bignatureadventures/

Tallurutiup Imanga is a conservation area twice the size of Nova Scotia and is key to Inuit self-determination.

Strange but true, Peter Morse has just travelled to the fly fishing mecca of Oregon on the American West Coast and New Zealand with his 2 handed Spey fly rod and didn't catch a single fish! Anyone who knows Peter, knows that he could catch them in a bath tub, the reason he didn't catch fish was that he was too busy competition casting! We also hear about the 13 year old girl who is the world fly casting accuracy champion. That's our first cast this morning on The Big Fish. Rob Paxevanos has a Clyde River special, we look at the king of the estuary, the mighty Mulloway and some of the other winter options. Stinker takes us on a minimalists fishing trip to the Dampier Archipelago. Armed with nothing more than a 50lb handline and a 6/0 hook he caught bags and bags of hard fighting great eating fish. Alex Bellissimo continues our fishing journey along the Northern Beaches of Sydney. This week we share some hot spots on Freshwater and Curl Curl beach as we work our way from Manly to Palm Beach.

Weekly fishing news, events and tips etc from a NSW perspective.

En un artículo publicado en el sitio en internet Le Huffington Post, Québec, Creimer escribe que este miércoles 30 de noviembre, la Corte Suprema de Canadá escuchará dos casos en torno a las operaciones potencialmente destructivas que quieren llevar a cabo empresas de exploración y transporte petróleo en los territorios tradicionales de los inuit de Clyde River y los de la Primera Nación Chippewas del Támes.

Church History: Chapter 19 – St. Patrick St. Patrick was born in Roman Britain, but at the age of 16 was taken to Ireland and put in slavery. He was put in charge of his master’s sheep and as he spent a lot of time away from family and friends he spent his time contemplating his sinfulness. God used this time of persecution and isolation to work in Patrick’s heart and mind and he gave his life to God. He wrote his Confessions as a guide for those who came after him and it is evidence of how much God had spoken to him. He returned to Britain and after a number of years returned to Ireland where he became the first missionary there and led many into conversion.

Se podra pensar que la cada de los precios del petrleo sera suficiente como para poner fin a la idea de llevar a cabo perforaciones de exploracin petrolera en el rtico canadiense, pero ese no es el caso en Nunavut. El 20 % de los depsitos de petrleo en el mundo se encuentran en el rtico. Es por esta razn que las empresas petroleras tienen planes para empezar las exploraciones este verano. Pero la oposicin de la poblacin del lugar a esos planes es firme. La pequea comunidad de Clyde River, que en lengua inuktitut se llama Kanngiqtugaapik, considera que esas exploraciones petroleras son una amenaza real a su existencia.
