On June 17, 1958, the Second Narrows Bridge being built over Burrard Inlet collapsed. Nineteen men died. It has remained Vancouver's worst industrial accident. Sixty years later, all that remains are a few old faded photos and a sign declaring the bridge as "The Ironworkers Memorial". It turns out a young draftsman had filmed the entire project being constructed. He arrived five minutes late to the site on the day of the tragedy. Had he arrived on time, he would have died. Peter Hall's 3000 feet of 16mm colour film was put away the day after the bridge was officially opened and had never been seen. Until now. "The Bridge" takes Peter's fascinating footage and tells the story of the men whose lives were irrevocably changed that day. It provides a unique look back into a major formative event in Vancouver's history. "The Bridge" is a collaboration between Peter Hall and award-winning documentary producer George Orr. The film will debut in Vancouver on the 60th anniversary of that terrible day. A truly lost treasure of history has been discovered and brought to the public to inform modern-day Vancouver and provide a lasting memorial to the nineteen who lost their lives. George returns to The View Up Here to discuss the project and how once discovered, he could not deny telling this story.

The long and winding road. The one where the end never gets closer but the billboards and neon signs along the way keep telling you how spectacular the final destination is. The destination that keeps getting moved further and further into the future. Just keep going, just keep trusting, it's coming. No, really. Every newspaper you open, every TV channel you watch tells you it's just around the corner, that incredible result that the world will be envious of. All brought to you by your intrepid BC Liberals and Princess Christy Flim-flam, who are only interested in the best for British Columbians of course. LNG, which once meant Liquid Natural Gas now means Logic Never Given. Pacific Northwest and Woodfibre are nothing but elaborate public relations campaigns that will almost certainly never be built. Rich Coleman can continue his Sham-Wow impression but when the corporate interests that will have to spend those billions fall silent, the writing is on the wall. Site C, the mega-project which never made sense, now tries to justify an estimated 70 year deficit period for BC taxpayers while producing a product with no demand at a staggering loss. BC Hydro has all but abandoned trying to justify the madness. Now they just release estimates and data as quietly as possible. But the Clark government keeps spending on it. Kinder Morgan continues to misrepresent, misinform, misguide and outright lie regarding the Burnaby Mountain expansion, which is actually a tripling of pipeline capacity. Municipal authorities continue to vow refusal of the project. The Second Narrows of Burrard Inlet are woefully ill equipped for a 3 fold increase in tanker traffic. But the band plays on. Grant G (@Realmediavoices) returns to deliver The Straight Goods once more on these pipe dreams and more, no pun intended. Visit his work at http://powellriverpersuader.blogspot.ca/
