Off-grid family's problematic property comes down
4Clearly was not built to code and therefore unable able to withstand snow loads etc. Thankfully nobody was hurt.

Off-grid family's problematic property comes down
18As stated the supports were in the process of being removed when the snow collapsed it. But the real stupid thing is the regional district using that as a reason why you need a permit to build, as if it was in mid construction when it collapsed. That just goes to show the lack of intelligence when it comes to bureaucratic red tape.

Off-grid family's problematic property comes down
15I wonder if you read the entire story or just glanced it over. The building collapsed due to several structural support beams being removed prior to the recent snowfalls in preparation for demolition and it collapsed under the weight of the snow due to lack of structural support.

Local MLAs concerned 2026 budget will leave Prince George behind
12Is anyone surprised at this point? People should understand the provincial and federal government stances on things after how many years. Things won't change until they get to hard for the people down south.

5Was it brought down due to not being finished (with all the supports in place), voluntarily by the owner, or via a surprise visitor?

BC to adopt permanent daylight savings time
4This a mistake! Standard time is more aligned with our biological clock. Russia tried constant Daylight time and after 3 yrs changed to permanent Standard time due to assorted issues.

Local MLAs concerned 2026 budget will leave Prince George behind
9Local MLA’s have all expressed valid concerns that should be addressed by Eby. Unfortunately much of what Eby has done has resulted in increasing debts since we had a surplus after Horgan left office. Eby seems to think he can meet his goals on borrowed money but manages to increase the debt year after year, not what we expect from our leadership. We need a change in provincial lead ship, if not party.

9you can't change climate change...you can however adapt for it.NOW pollution, that government and others, like calling climate change , you can change....and it can change the local weather where pollution is high...but not the climate. climate is influenced by the phases of the earth, and unless you are some kind of "GOD" good luckFor years i have offered $1000 to the charity of their choice if those who claim they can change the climate TO SHOW ME, them changing it ( climate not pollution and weather)....so far they can't...it still stands....

7“We all know this hot topic; nobody really wants to discuss it,” said Mobley. “So we’re going to have a discussion now. I just want to share my personal experience as an elected official when it comes to some of the things as a 38-year-old man supporting a family of four on a single income"....Suggest you get another job with better pay and stop crying.

Olympian Hiller-Donnelly says Canada should consider lottery to support athletes
8When the government promoted forming the lottery corporation many years ago, they claimed that a certain percentage of the profits would be directed to sport organizations for this very reason. For the first few years, as far as I can recall, amateur sports group were funded by the lottery profits. Back then you could also receive a very nice booklet annually as a report of sales revenue, costs and disbursements of funds to both winners and non-profit organizations.I would love to see deserving people and groups representing our country receive better funding again. Lottery funds should not be supporting the government or a connected someone's pet project.
