BEAVER BITES

  • Air Canada is denying compensation to passengers whose flights are delayed or cancelled due to staffing shortages, something all businesses are dealing with these days. Air Canada is claiming that the disruptions are a “safety issue”—a potential violation of federal regulations, according to the Canadian Transportation Agency.
     
  • If you're travelling to Newfoundland soon, you may want to get an update on the wildfire situation. Fires in Newfoundland have prompted evacuation warnings over the weekend, with Premier Andrew Furey warning residents in several central Newfoundland towns to prepare to leave if the situation worsened.
     
  • It's no secret that Canada is an incredible country and studies continue to prove it. Every year, the EIU, a sister company of The Economist, ranks 172 North American cities on livability based on 30 factors related to education, culture, the environment, healthcare, and infrastructure. Guess who topped the list? Calgary, Vancouver, Toronto, and Montreal. Ohhhhh yeah!
     
  • Event: Taking place at the Edmonton Fringe Festival from Aug 13-22, as well as in PEI and Halifax, The Fourth R: reduce, reuse, recycle, Revolutionize is an interdisciplinary presentation that fuses climate science, dance, and video projections together. It is an energized look into the people and behaviours that fuel one of the most pressing topics on planet Earth: global warming. 
     
  • As we get back to “normal”, the Canadian government has released its 2030 Emission Reduction Plan plan to reduce Canada’s emissions by 40 percent below 2005 levels by 2030 and net-zero emissions by 2050. With fossil fuels still playing a significant role in the tourism sector, how can we recover, while also meeting these new targets to tackle climate change? One option is to voluntarily buy carbon offsets, which sets the stage for repeating history. But do Carbon Offsets really help?
