On January 23, 1995, British Columbia's then premier announced that he was cancelling Alcan's Kemano Completion Project. But is such a simple political announcement all it will take to cancel this $1.4 billion hydro megaproject? Many tough questions remain: about who will pay for the cost of cancelling this megaproject, already half-completed at the time of Mike Harcourt's announcement; about whether or not binding legal contracts dating from 1950 and 1987, between Alcan and the governments of Canada and British Columbia can be broken by a simple political decision; and about why Alcan has fought so hard to preserve a project which makes absolutely no sense, either economically or environmentally. This book outlines the 45-year history of Alcan's industrial activities in British Columbia, uncovers the back-room political deals that have made those activities possible, and discusses the roles Canada's federal and provincial governments must play in their attempts to reverse the dangerous precedents that the Alcan deals have set. It also examines the consequences for Canada and North America if these governments fail to address responsibly the mess that they themselves have created.This book is a must-read for those who wish to remain informed on the question of who is to control North America's vital water and power resources in the twenty-first century.

Price Paid untangles truth from some of the myths about First Nations and addresses misconceptions still widely believed today. The second book by award-winning author Bev Sellars, Price Paid is based on a popular presentation Sellars often told to treaty-makers, politicians, policymakers, and educators. The book begins with glimpses of foods, medicines, and cultural practices North America's indigenous peoples have contributed to the rest of the world. It documents the dark period of regulation by racist laws during the twentieth century, and then discusses new emergence in the twenty-first century into a re-establishment of Indigenous land and resource rights. The result is a candidly told personal take on the history of Aboriginal rights in Canada and Canadian history told from a First Nations point of view.
Flares, France and Serious Fashion Crimes - My 1975 Diary
Flares, France and Serious Fashion Crimes - My 1975 Teenage Diary It's 1975 and 16-year old Bev can scarcely believe it when the dishiest boy at youth club asks her out. But then Mike dumps Bev for the girl down the road and Bev's whole world falls apart. Thankfully Bev is off to stay with her French penfriend but her passion for all-things French turns sour when faced with the lack of public toilets and endless dusty museums in the searing Provence heat. Horribly homesick, Bev counts the days until she lands back on British soil and can meet up with old-flame Simon who's working at a hotel in Weston Super Mare. But Bev just can't get Mike off her mind... This is Bev's real-life 1975 teenage diary in the raw: hilarious yet tearful, bitchy yet philosophical, laugh-out-loud yet toe-curlingly embarrassing. If you liked Rae Earl's 1980s Mad, Fat Teenage Diary, you will love this real-life teenage diary from the decade that taste forgot: the 1970s. Now a positively ancient 55 and thankfully no longer with a pair of platform shoes in her wardrobe, Bev's 1975 diary, along with all her other teenage journals from the 1970s, is dedicated to her 19-year old son to prove that his middle-aged mum was once a teenager too
