OIL SPILL OIL SLICK is an homage to 12-year old song writer, singer and environmental activist Ta'Kaiya Blaney and her haunting song, Shallow Waters; a call to action—a wake up call from a young Sliammon youth warning that if we do nothing it will all be gone. Ta'Kaiya sang her Shallow Waters live before thousands attending the April 2012 No Pipeline No Tankers Rally in Comox. Ta'Kaiya Blaney has dedication, courage and drive to rock the boat.
