COVID-19: Vancouver Island, BC (Central & North)

Collected by: Vancouver Island University

Archived since: Mar, 2020

Description:

In March 2020 the Canadian Web Archiving Coalition (CWAC) stated: "The deadly flu outbreak of 1918-19 is often called the ‘forgotten pandemic.’ Our responsibility now is to ensure the lessons of COVID-19 are not forgotten. Our collective efforts to capture and preserve the essential online elements of this unprecedented event are critical." (CARL-ABRC). The COVID-19: Vancouver Island, BC (Central & North) Web Archive reflects community experiences and responses to the pandemic in the region served by Vancouver Island University, documenting and supporting diverse aspects of scholarly inquiry, creativity, and community life. The Web Archive is intended to provide a body of information that will support scholarship, creativity, and study. Information rights related to web archiving include considerations of copyright and fair dealing, and of individual and community privacy. The following are among principles and resources that guide web archiving decisions: Ethics of care, for example in VIU Library’s Pledge to our user communities; OCAP® principles, and awareness of relationality and accountability to Indigenous communities, and potential impacts related to web archiving; Good practice and expert advice, emerging and accessed through communities of practice, e.g. the Canadian Web Archiving Coalition (CWAC); and VIU Library, Evolution of Physical Collections: 2017-2021 VIU Library, Special Collections Guidelines (Under review 2020). Web archives are informed by available capture technologies and also by affordances of the content source; not all websites can be successfully crawled or rendered, and quality of archived versions varies. This project is supported by VIU's Special Funding for COVID-19 research projects and carried out in coordination with the University of Victoria’s COVID-19 Collection and the Canadian Web Archiving Coalition. Contact us at research.help@viu.ca with questions or for more information about content included in the Web Archive. [Working description 2021 April 6]

Description: Mick Sweetman on Twitter: "At least 62.7% of First Nations people in B.C. are fully vaccinated in B.C. as of last Thursday. The @fnha estimates 78.2% of First Nations people 12+ have had at least one shot. Which is a bit lower than in my chart—probably due to me using 2016 population data. #COVID19BC"

Title: [Capital Daily and Ricochet Media investigate pepper spray incident at Fairy Creek] | Capital Daily

URL: https://twitter.com/CapitalDailyVic/status/1455172875938263042/

Description: Capital Daily on Twitter: "On Aug. 21, RCMP officers pepper sprayed protesters at #FairyCreek. They say they did so to protect an officer—who they claim was pushed—from a hostile crowd. A joint investigation by @CapitalDailyVic and @ricochet_en has found none of that is true. https://capitaldaily.ca/news/rcmp-pepper-spray-fairy-creek-investigation / The investigation was sparked by a routine due-diligence check after the #RCMP told @JackieLamport their reasoning. We asked for any records that could back up the police story. None was provided. / Video footage emerged soon after the pepper spray incident, however. We watched more than 90 minutes of footage, frame-by-frame, from nine different angles. It directly contradicts what the RCMP said happened. / On the question of the police officer being pushed: there is no evidence. On the question of the officer being unconscious: there is no evidence. In an affidavit, a commanding officer says the officer himself doesn't know if he was unconscious at any point. / On the question of the officer needing rescue: video shows he was able to move away from the crowd on his own within seconds. The police did not use pepper spray for another 4 minutes and 40 seconds from the moment he fell. / On the question of the crowd being hostile and presenting a danger to the officer: video shows that the crowd moved away immediately on noticing he had fallen. People within and outside the crowd signalled and shouted to one another to move away. / On the question of the officer needing evacuation: video shows the officer participated in an arrest after he fell. He walked away from the scene. Paramedics say they did not evacuate him; police then said he was taken by police helicopter to a hospital. / We have asked the RCMP repeatedly for any evidence to back up their claims, which could include flight records, body-cam footage, hospital records, an interview with the officer who fell, or any other evidence. None has been provided. / This reporting was made possible by the generous support of the Misinformation Project by @jhrnews .

Description: Caryma Sa'd - Lawyer + Political Satirist on Twitter: "Chris Sky showed up late to his own rally in #Nanaimo, BC. Apparently he spent time berating the audience, which alienated some followers. However, he was able to galvanize a maskless crowd to storm Canadian Tire— supposedly with support from local police & RCMP. #cdnpoli"
