Powerplay - About BC Rivers, dams, and hydro power

We don't tend to enter the political realm here as we focus on the enjoyment of fly fishing and our trout, but this came in to our inbox and is of interest. It's obviously political, with the sentiment that the BC gov is secretly selling river rights to private companies. It's an interesting thing to watch, and it certainly isn't confined to BC. Dam issues run the world over. I recall reading an article about a Maori leader in New Zealand who was happily quoted as saying the life spirit of a river has value, and that value can be monetized. So much for the free flowing Mohikonui R on the west coast of the S Island. Regardless, this link is worth a visit:
