This award appears to be baseless, similar to best employer awards: if you pay the $200 fee, congrats! Looking at what comox has done (and the paragraph from their application) their bee efforts are minimal but at least exist (2 large flower beds).

The purpose of this award is to get people talking about bees, so they have succeeded. I prefer to recognize significant accomplishments however.

It is well known that BC buys cheap power from AB, but I didn’t know the extent of the restrictions to sell power back to them.

I guess competition is scary and in their mind hampers further investment? And the bout of banning wind/solar farms still defies any explanation.

It’s a bad attempt at copying Nate Silver’s work, but lacks any statistical quality or funding. It’s something to read but in my opinion, total BS.
