new welfare office just opened across the street and a abused women shelter is also going next door. Anyone in that area is doomed

Another famous hockey loving Canadian who also sadly passed away from brain cancer almost nine years ago said it this way before he died," See you down the road sometime ..."- Gord Downie - The Tragically HipAnd just like with Gord, this country mourns the loss of this special boy.RIP Mavrik

Instead of going along with the government mandate of 3% a year increase that the other public sector unions have agreed to, the BCNU and its nurses have opted to be selfish and greedy.If they do indeed manage to negotiate more than the other unions, then by virtue of the " me too " clause, the government will have to pay all of the other unions the same increase on top of the 3% already agreed too.That will apply to all 456,000 public union members in B.C. who represent roughly 10% of B.C.'s population.That's a lot of parasites gorging on the carcass of public tax dollars.With all public unions it's only ever about the money and nothing else so please spare the public your whining that you'd rather be at work than on the picket line.No you wouldn't. Hopefully, the BCNU's job action in their greedy quest will not harm the lives of patients.

Another great local business gone and the govt focusing on the tent encampment trash etc all these businesses are affected and the tax paying citizens. Look at CrossRoads and Birch Boar there’s many loss of local businesses due to the actual issue in society.

Maybe there is the odd exception someone can tell me, but on small vessels it should be mandatory for everyone to wear a life jacket or personal flotation device. Of course, if such a law was instituted, there would be a hue & cry from the uptight right with the tired old complaint of too much government regulation. Recall the whining when seatbelt law was introduced. The sky did not fall.

PG would benefit a lot more if tankers were allowed to access Prince Rupert (incidentally a much less congested and safer port to access than going through the Burrard Inlet, in a busy harbour, with multiple bridges).

Your glib comment implies free heroin is given out easily & in vast numbers. Not true. “wherever you want.” Nope. In the rare cases where one is given & ingests medical grade heroin, it’s under the direct supervision of a health professional. (thereby being safer & evidence shows that those who ingest regulated drugs are less likely to have interactions with 1st responders & criminal justice system) Don’t let the facts get in the way.

Sad to see another small business disappear from the downtown.

While the police keep retailers safer with their " boost and bust " , the judicial system brings back the danger with their " catch and release ".Thank you Courts.

It is long past time for the RCMP to start cracking down on the people that are buying the stolen goods and have them charged as well.

I believe this to be nothing more than a feel good exercise...youth have always been able to find and get stuff they want, alcohol, drugs, now vapes. There is always someone out there who will help them acquire stuff and skirt the system. Why do they figure this should be any different today..this should be a parental thing... if they want their children on line they supervise it if not shut off the wifi and internet until they can supervise their youth.Maybe go after the problems more harshly, less finger waggles and more penitentiary time....

You, Mr Eby, and your government’s policy on hard drugs, are THE primary reason this facility is needed.

The only way BC benefits is if the Albertans keep quiet and move back to the hayfileds from which they came.

While the internet is a powerful tool, I think it does more harm than good to your average person.Who knew access to a lawless virtual wasteland could be harmful to people? Where anyone, including youth can watch depraved pornography, sliding deeper into the depths of addiction, as they consume ever more extreme content. Where there are websites that showcase people being maimed and killed for your pleasure. And of course social media, where criminals prey on naive young people, while veiled in the anonymity of their cyber identity It all started off innocent enough, but it has rapidly descended into madness. Where people will resort to doing the most depraved things, all to monetize viewership. Tide pods was the tip of the ice berg lolAnd of course the companies that enable all of this and grow filthy rich showcasing human depravity and misery are simply protecting your rights and freedoms to create and consume the content you want.
