I'm with my MP on this. While Ibelieve that the despotic Islamic regime must go, I do not support the unilateral and illegal use of military force and the killing of civilians, in contravention of international law. Thank you, @wgreaves.bsky.social. www.timescolonist.com/local-news/v...

I don’t think anyone is going to be satisfied with these answers. Apologies for the lop sided video.

I was just thinking what an incredible interviewee that was on your show just now, and then you confirmed it was your colleague Susan MacNamee (sp) - she was incredibly calm and article considering what’s going on in Puerto Vallarta. Impressive. @cbcstephenquinn.bsky.social

8 yrs ago, I was evicted by landlord who said son moved in. It was renovated (I had bldg permit/photos) and then rented after 6 mos. I still lost at RTB. West Vancouver landlord ordered to pay tenant $38,000 for wrongful eviction www.timescolonist.com/local-news/w... via @timescolonist.bsky.social

This seems painfully obvious but I'm glad the evidence proves it for the remaining doubters. BC would struggle to contain oil spill off north coast www.timescolonist.com/islander/bc-...

Hey @cbcstephenquinn.bsky.social - I went to see the New Pornographers a few years ago in Vancouver - and was underwhelmed. Great music but no interaction with the audience in between songs, no hype or excitement - very business like on stage. In short - better to listen to them on the radio ;)

I am proud of our prime minister. This speech meets the moment. www.cbc.ca/news/politic... #cdnpoli

I moved this week after several months both buying and selling condos in Victoria, BC. I am reading so many new year's stories (including one just now) about us living in "the worst home sales market in 30 years". I know I'm just one person, but that hasn't been my experience. 🧵 1/5

Another "open today" alert in #Victoria: Routine Coffee on Fort btwn Cook and Vancouver. This locally owned hipster haven is my post-workout go-to for coffee - so happy it was open. Grab a coffee and then hit Masala Mart on same block for authentic South Asian groceries (opened a few weeks ago).

Hey Victoria! If you don’t feel like making breakfast at home this morning, the Avalon Cafe on Fort is open today from 9 to 2 pm!

What I find interesting about @bcpolicy.bsky.social's Alex Hemingway's commentary is that his research notes that municipal exclusionary zoning remains one of the greatest barriers to solving the housing crisis.

What a shame. Vancouver Council fails to have the political courage to move forward with an approach that many other cities have embraced. Vancouver council rejects move to fast-track social housing towers, citing public opposition vancouversun.com/news/vancouv... via @vancouversun.bsky.social

Right. Tariffs and inflation aren't driving up food prices - it's price fixing (OK, it might be that too, but you know what I mean...)

So BC Coast is Canada’s coast says premier Moe of Saskatchewan. I guess that makes oil in Alberta Canada’s oil. And uranium and potash in Saskatchewan is Canada’s. And of course that means that Ottawa and the other provinces have a say as to how these resources are managed.
