10 year old Ta'Kaiya Blaney is Sliammon First Nation from B.C., Canada. Along with singing, songwriting, and acting, she is concerned about the environment, especially the preservation of marine and coastal wildlife. Shallow Waters was a semi-finalist in the 2010 David Suzuki Songwriting Contest, Playlist for the Planet. The song was recorded in studio by Audio Producer Joe Cruz. Footage from Vancouver, BC was filmed by Colter Ripley. Footage of the traditional ocean-going canoe from the Squamish Nation (Burrard Inlet, North Vancouver, BC) ; Ta'Kaiya in traditional cedar bark regalia (Tofino, BC); the Oil Refinery in Burrard Inlet; and the Vancouver Aquarium was filmed by Tina House. Additional footage contributed from Canada Greenpeace and Living Oceans Society. Lyrics on Drychum channel.

Someday, Tahiti Treat and Pep Chew might make a comeback, but the wild salmon won't, once they are gone. The reason why I mentioned the treats is if you bought them when you were a kid, you would know what its like to have a craving for something you cannot get anymore. Do you have a craving for something you cannot get anymore?
Ta'Kaiya never had those things but if the wild salmon disappear, she will know that feeling too.

I have seen jellyfish in the ocean by New Brighton Park, some years ago. By the grain elevators. I do not go there too often. Only been there three times in my life.

@MyVideoStop yes we should send two spirit bears to them...then they would have to ensure they have what they need to live.
