budget.canada.ca/2025/report-... While there are a couple hundred mentions of Indigenous people, it's all genuflection - little substantial. Look past this fiscal year, and it's all zeroes... where do they think we're going?

Look at this, every year infrastructure spending for non-Native communities goes up, and at the same time spending for First Nations infrastructure goes down.

One of my favourite artists, Tak Tanabe, turns 99 today. He has painted beautiful renditions of landscapes I love. Here is a nice biography, including images of some of his work: www.aci-iac.ca/art-books/ta...

Takao Tanabe | Biography

Growing up in a Japanese Canadian family, in the tiny hamlet of Seal Cove, British Columbia, Takao Tanabe (b.1926) had no meaningful access to art or the possibilities it offered.

The next wave of monitoring cuts crests. Brutal. How do you steward salmon without counting them? You don't. I am close to this issue & I know nuance abounds but I don't see how hundreds of millions of dollars towards restoration work can be effective without counting the fish we seek to support.

The last 10 yrs were the worst decade on record for salmon spawner monitoring in Pacific Canada. Any scientist who works with local-scale salmon abundance data knows this. Many papers written about the 'ghost streams' no longer monitored by the streamwalkers of decades past. We wrote another.

I'm making a schematic fig with a goal to clearly lay out the steps/structure of a pop'n model simulation. Model tracks within-year seasonal dynamics (e.g., a fishery sub-model during part of the year) and yr-to-yr dynamics. Looking for examples of effective figures balancing clarity/complexity!

I am trying to get in touch with a scientist at NOAA Fisheries, Gary Winan. His email address appears to be deactivated and is bouncing back. Any chance that someone on here knows Gary and/or can put me in touch?
