Blog Watching week ending May 10, 2015

The LNG files received some heavy reviews over the last seven days, particularly anything to do with developments from Lax Kw'alaams where community members have been receiving information and providing consultation related to the Pacific NorthWest LNG proposal for their government through the week.

Our item on the push from opponents to the Lelu Island project also found a wide audience this week, as did our LNG related item about the announcement of Amy Dopson being named to a community engagement position with Kitimat's LNG Canada project.

A review of a recent Marine Search and Rescue exercise and the results from this years Fraser Institute elementary school findings rounded out the top five items.
