A haunting and beautifully written piece by Nancy Macdonald ; the best overall telling of this week and its context that I have read theglobeandmail.com/canada/article…
When excessive rain in BC caused rivers to overflow, sturgeon swam out of the rivers and were stranded when the water receded. Our RescUAV Team has been working with the Fraser Valley Angling Guides Association to help relocate these fish by creating maps and flying aerial surveys. #drones #BCFloods
Thank you Nancy Macdonald for this beautiful piece highlighting some great work by our members.
During the #BCStorm, amazing flood relief efforts were provided by private citizens & organizations like Fraser Valley Angling Guides Association, who rushed into the flood waters to rescue stranded travellers by boat, deliver food, transport people to critical medical appts, & save sturgeon & salmon.

Fraser Valley Angling Guides Association They sprang into action using their own resources, including their own boats, fuel, & time. They continued to help in the days & weeks that followed w/flood recovery, as they distributed flood clean up kits to impacted homes and monitored for stranded sturgeon and salmon. [2/3]

To save the Fraser River’s white sturgeon, B.C.’s angling guides go fishing for data /via The Globe and Mail theglobeandmail.com/canada/british…
Critical funding provided by Habitat Conservation Trust Foundation for the important work we do on Juvenile Sturgeon. That funding comes from user license fees from the Sturgeon Conservation surcharge needed for fishing above mission bridge in the freshwater section.
