Like many in our community concerned about water, fish and the future, we have serious questions about the data centre proposed for the Terrace area. We’re heartened to see so many locals raising their voices.
At this stage, nobody has many details. But given the water and energy demands typically associated with AI data centres, it's important we all pay close attention.
Proposals like this deserve careful rigorous assessment and meaningful community involvement from the very start. The fact this proposal is coming forward at a time when the federal government is quietly gutting environmental assessment law raises concerns about whether residents of our watershed will get the process they deserve: https://www.wcel.org/blog/canadas-environmental-safety-net-being-shredded-again
Let's stay vigilant. Healthy salmon and healthy communities go hand in hand, and decisions made today will shape the future of our region for generations to come.
