Ajax Weather Concerns
Wednesday, May 16th, 2012 | 5:14pm PDT

A former longtime Environment Canada Scientist is raising concerns over what the proposed Ajax mine could do to the quality of life in Kamloops.  Dr. Robert  Schemenauer has come forward saying the mine could have a number of negative impacts including creating more haze and fog in the tournament capital.  With Kamloops already a dusty city, Schemenauer is questioning if building a mine will add more problems to our weather and climate. A spokesperson for KGHM Ajax reached us after our news deadline, but Norman Thompson assures their scientists say the data they've been studying since 2007 doesn't back up what Schemenauer is saying noting Jacko Lake has more water than the site will be using, and does not produce fog.

Person-Caused Fires A Serious Problem
May 14th, 2012

It's hard to imagine that people are still so stupid when it comes to the number of person-caused forest fires. It seems that almost every year it gets worse. So far this young fire season, we've had over 40 fires, all of which are person caused. The latest fire, near Pavilion Lake is costing a bundle to fight, as well as threatening a number of homes.
