Petition to the House of Commons in Parliament assembled
- There are significant risks to hikers, aviators, and mariners, in the Straight of Juan de Fuca, British Columbia;
- The discretion and interventions of the lighthouse keepers along this coastline have resulted in the rescue of many stranded and injured individuals, which would not be possible through automation; and
- Fisheries and Oceans Canada did not consult with local communities, mariners, union representatives, or First Nations prior to announcing the de-staffing of Pachena and Carmanah Point lighthouses.
