The Premier has taken to Youtube to denounce the Federal Government decision to close the Kitsilano Coast Guard Base.
In the video Christy Clark calls the decision 'disappointing" and adds response times will increase threatening the safety of those in harbour.
Clark also says the new inshore rescue boat in Stanley Park still leaves Vancouver with a dangerous drop in service.
"My government is planning to balance the budget this Spring so I understand the importance of controlling spending and keeping costs down but not when lives are put at risk. For the safety of British Columbians the Federal government must find the funding to keep the Kits Coast Station open and to keep Vancouver families safe."
Clark says she has asked the federal Conservative government to reconsider its decision to close the base.
Earlier this month, Vancouver Mayor Gregor Robertson confirmed he had support from the Premier on the city's fight to keep the station open.
He made those comments on January 9th - the same day the federal government announced Stanley Park will be the home of the rescue boat station replacing the base.
