Letters to The Sun: Community services not keeping up with development in Vancouver
Being a long-time Vancouver resident, I've seen the evolution of the city firsthand. There are so many amazing attributes to enjoy and be proud of, but the current direction of city council and development at all costs is not one of them. They work to build more housing — great, but then delay the needed investments in renewals for community services and amenities, which is a travesty. Add 24,000 people to the old Jericho lands, 64,000 people to the Broadway corridor, three towers at Commercial and Broadway, perfect. A replacement 50-metre pool at the Vancouver Aquatic Centre, I don't think so. A new Britannia Community Centre, delay that. More park and recreation amenities, no, let's just cram the people in. Given this current trajectory, the Vancouver of tomorrow will be a far cry in terms of livability from what people know today. Start your day with a roundup of B.C.-focused news and opinion.

Ferries announced on June 10 that the bidding process to replace four aging vessels resulted in contracts going to China Merchants Industry Weihai Shipyards. Since then, loud accusations have come from all corners and levels of British Columbia's political spectrum, with many incendiary comments from professional pundits and members of the public. Many declare that the vessels should be built in Canada, although no Canadian yard answered the invitation to bid. Then come claims that China is untrustworthy in trade tariffs and international politics. Some dissenters worry about the quality of steel used in Chinese shipyards, along with perceived lack of expertise of welders and other trades. Having spent a large chunk of my life working on freighters and tankers criss-crossing the oceans, it's amazing to hear so much negative rhetoric from those who should know better. Hardly ever mentioned is that China has been the world's leading commercial shipbuilder for many years, and is far more cost-competitive than anywhere else. Latest figures show China accounting for 62 per cent of global shipbuilding orders. China produces and delivers to all parts of the world just about everything used in our daily lives, from vehicles to appliances to electronics, and everything in between. China manufactures the goods and builds the ships to transport them — they also build huge gantry cranes that load and discharge containers at ports worldwide. These cranes arrive from China on purpose-built heavy-lift vessels, of course. Recently, U.S. President Donald Trump blustered that he would revitalize the shipbuilding in the U.S., but industry experts advise that it is five times as expensive to build comparable ships in America than in China. I rest my case. Bernie Smith, Parksville British Columbians should be concerned about the B.C. government's reported plan to purchase ferries from a Chinese state-linked shipyard. This raises serious ethical and security concerns, especially given China's increasingly aggressive behaviour in the Indo-Pacific, including its harassment of neighbouring countries and threats to regional stability. Just last year, Canadian naval vessels were confronted by Chinese warships in international waters near Taiwan. It would be troubling for B.C. to direct public funds to a shipbuilder linked to a regime known for threatening peace and democracy. There are also cybersecurity risks. Modern ferries are not just mechanical — they rely on embedded digital systems that could be vulnerable to interference, particularly if sourced from authoritarian states. Premier David Eby should cancel the deal and commit to sourcing from democratic countries instead. Public infrastructure should reflect our values and protect our security, not compromise them. Gabriel Yiu, Vancouver Re: Alberta minister 'optimistic' B.C. tanker ban will be lifted During a visit to Prince Rupert, Alberta's minister of transportation and economic corridors, Devin Dreeshen, questioned why there is a ban on oil tanker ships to and from that port but no ban on similar ships at the Port of Vancouver. Dreeshen is too young to remember the Exxon Valdez oil spill that fouled the northwest coast. The moratorium is its legacy. Nevertheless, Dreeshen pointed out that American oil tanker ships routinely carry Alaskan crude oil down the west coast. I wonder if the diluted bitumen from Alberta poses more of an environmental risk in the event of a tanker spill than a spill of Alaskan crude oil? After passing new legislation to expedite national projects, I expect the new Mark Carney federal government will lift the northwest oil shipping ban by pledging to expand the 'world class' emergency response infrastructure at the Port of Vancouver to include the Port of Prince Rupert.

House of Commons passes One Canadian Economy Act Français
OTTAWA, ON, June 20, 2025 /CNW/ - Canada's new government has a mandate to build big, build bold, and build now. Today, the Prime Minister, Mark Carney, welcomed the passing in the House of Commons of Bill C-5, One Canadian Economy Act. The legislation will build one strong Canadian economy by: Removing federal barriers to internal trade and labour mobility, helping goods, services, workers, and businesses move freely across provinces and territories. Expediting nation-building projects that will connect and transform our country and unleash economic growth while ensuring environmental protections and Indigenous rights are upheld. Working with Indigenous Peoples through consultation and engagement to build shared prosperity. Taken together, these measures will create and connect Canadians to good-paying careers and more prosperity. The Prime Minister shared an update on this work with the premiers of the provinces and territories during their meeting earlier today. The leaders agreed to stay in close contact as they reinforce Canada's strength at home. Indigenous partnership is a critical component of this legislation, and fulsome consultation will be pivotal to the success of future projects. The Government of Canada is committed to respecting the rights of Indigenous Peoples recognized and affirmed by section 35 of the Constitution Act, 1982 and the rights set out in the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples. To this end, Prime Minister Carney will be meeting with First Nations, Inuit, and Métis over the coming weeks. Bill C-5 now moves to the Senate for consideration and brings us one step closer to removing federal barriers to free trade by Canada Day. Quotes "Today's passing of Bill C-5, One Canadian Economy Act, will remove trade barriers, expedite nation-building projects, and unleash economic growth, with Indigenous partnership at the centre of this growth. It's time to build big, build bold, and build now. As Canadians, we can give ourselves more than any foreign nation can ever take away." — The Rt. Hon. Mark Carney, Prime Minister of Canada "The adoption of Bill C-5 by the House of Commons is a crucial step in building one Canadian economy and getting big projects built faster. Thank you to colleagues who supported this legislation – you are helping build a stronger Canada." — The Hon. Dominic LeBlanc, President of the King's Privy Council for Canada and Minister responsible for Canada-U.S. Trade, Intergovernmental Affairs and One Canadian Economy "This legislation is about building a stronger, more united Canada. Let's build trust, tear down internal trade barriers, and create one single economy – from coast to coast to coast. Together, we're building a stronger Canada, for everyone." — The Hon. Chrystia Freeland, Minister of Transport and Internal Trade "I am pleased to see the One Canadian Economy Act achieve this milestone. This Act means we are no longer asking 'Why build?', but instead 'How do we get it done?'. We are removing barriers, leveraging Canada's resources and talented workers, centring Indigenous consultation and equity, and continuing to fight climate change – all to get building and to become an energy superpower. In the new economy we are building, Canada will be defined by delivery, not delay." — The Hon. Tim Hodgson, Minister of Energy and Natural Resources "Indigenous Peoples' voices are at the table where discussions are happening, and decisions are made. This government understands that Indigenous Peoples have the right to determine their future. As the first Indigenous Minister of Indigenous Services, I understand the importance of relationship moving forward – and I am pleased to see the Prime Minister has determined this as a priority and a critical part of the work ahead." — The Hon. Mandy Gull-Masty, Minister of Indigenous Services
