@e_bloor @nardwuar Congratulations, @nardwuar! And thank you again for showing me around @CiTRradio a “few” years ago - although I still owe you an audition cart - doot doot!

I am honoured to announce I’ve been appointed as a member to the Order of Canada. Thank you to everyone for the support! I dedicate this to my late Mom who taught me so much about history, local independent media & research. I know that she would be, like me, screaming with joy!

@StuartHumphryes @e_bloor Thank you, @StuartHumphryes, for taking the time to rephotograph my great-great-great-great-grandfather @e_bloor and all the loved ones on this thread. Merry Christmas!

I've been watching some YouTube videos where historical figures had their paintings re-rendered by Ai as contemporary photos, and the connection it creates with the subject is quite profund. So I tried it on some Victorian photos such as the shot below of Sir John Herschel from 1867. The potential it offers family historians is considerable, and so I thought, as a fun little Christmas present to you, I would offer the service freely to my followers during this week. So if you want to post a shot of an ancestor I will, in turn, reply with a re-rendered version for you, re-imagining them as if taken by modern photography. But just single shots (not groups or couples) and they need to be of clear enough resolution that we can clearly see their faces and not have to guess at their features.

"I'd like to see the BC government put absolute number one priority on getting our economy rolling again."
At last week's AME Town Hall in Vancouver, President & CEO Todd Stone had the chance to talk to AME member Patricia Mohr, commodity expert and developer of the Scotiabank Commodity Price Index, about what it takes to accelerate the mineral exploration and development sector in BC.

A day much like today in Vancouver, but one in the early 1960s. By 1965, a building boom would have commenced in the vicinity!

"Vancouver, B.C., Canada", a Natural Color Productions Ltd. card (no. S-970) which looks modern (as a card) but also prehistoric (as an image of Vancouver). As the text on the card notes, "the City annually hosts thousands of visitors from all over the world, who arrive in ships like the 'Canberra' (seen in the Inlet)." S.S. Canberra was an English-registered P&O liner and cruise ship from 1961-97 (other than a short stint as a troop ship in the Falklands War).

Congratulations to @KamloopsExplora on a great #KEG2025 conference that highlighted the importance of grassroots exploration - record attendance and good conversations throughout!
AME@AME_BC
At the #KEG2025 conference, AME Chair Trish Jacques took to the stage to highlight the importance of certainty in the regulatory environment in advancing exploration across British Columbia. The AME team had an excellent time connecting with members and conference attendees and we thank you for your valuable feedback. If you haven’t yet, stop by our Booth 27 at the tradeshow before 4 PM today to connect with the team and say hello! @KamloopsExplora

Thank you to Minister @JagrupBrar1 for the meeting this morning; we look forward to working closely with the new Ministry of Mining and Critical Minerals.
Keerit Jutla@KeeritJutla
A successful mineral exploration sector will help government meet its critical mineral and social goals. But there are many challenges facing us. Today we sat down with newly appointed Minister of Mines and Critical Minerals to talk about solutions. We’re working on behalf of our members to ensure that the Mineral Tenure Act modernization is implemented in a way that is consistent with the justice Ross decision by March 2025. We shared why we can’t afford to get it wrong and how our industry is willing to help build a new path forward that doesn’t leave reconciliation behind. Thank you to Minister Jagrup Brar for taking the time in your first week to meet with us. @AME_BC @JagrupBrar1 @JBExplores

In my oped in BIV, I outline why permitting timelines matter. Delayed permits and the impacts that they have to businesses and communities, hitting the regions the hardest.

Given that my descendants thought that the Hong Kong MTR system was decidedly space age compared to ye olde TTC back in the 1990s, this thread might make @JBExplores feel as old as myself!

Last week I visited the "Station Rail Voyage" a popup museum using the old Hung Hom platforms to exhibit old Hong Kong railway rolling stock for a few months. A picture thread of my experience.
