Machete-wielding man threatens downtown shop owner

She is absolutely right in that back in the day " Speciality Avenue " was a safe and good place to shop.After years of poor city planning, failed government policies , a spineless justice system, downtown PG has become a criminal wasteland with a multitude of social welfare operations that enable and feed the addicts, criminals, and down and out.Put that in your pipe and smoke it Mayor Yu, and while youre at it remove the rose-colored glasses you and council look at PG with.

Lucky for the machete wielding criminal there's a few $ 350,000 salary judges in PG that are just fine with people packing machetes in public.The justice system of B.C., the Attorney General, the Minister of Public Safety....all working together to ensure that criminals have rights.

Fully automatic weapons!Handguns with ammunition!Hand grenades!!!!Why are they not appearing before a judge immediately and put behind bars as the investigation continues? It is not like they are going to miss work. This IS their work and has been shown time and time again they will be back in business by days end with replacement drugs and weapons brought up from the lower mainland

They don't want shelter because they feel it's unsafe? But then they are running around, breaking things, threatening people, leaving trash everywhere...I guess that's ok? There is zero accountability amongst the unhoused.

Downtown Prince George wants security cameras up and running by end of summer

The higher the resolution cameras the better.That way the judges will have absolutely no doubt in releasing the actual criminal back into the public after the police have worked their backs off in capturing the criminal.Criminals should be advised that if they have a machete in their possession that this will ensure that the judge will let them go free right away.

This will all just be a waste of money if the judges don't uphold the law and hold those accountable for breaking them. Every judge seems to fall for the sad life story but after you've been arrested and pleaded that they know better now, that sad story shouldn't fool them again.

Tim Bennett’s comment is beyond insane. The train is amazing and needs to be maintained. We have money for all the unhoused stuff but not the train? Tim you need to step down dude. Enough is enough.

I couldn’t agree more! We want small businesses to thrive, yet we continue to locate shelters and services nearby. Those responsible for operating these shelters should be required to pay for community safety officer that works in the area to help keep the entire area safe and welcoming for everyone.

All this rampant crime is now at the feet of every judge who is soft on crime. If these judges wouldn't let these criminals roam their neighborhoods why do they let roam ours? It feels very much like they live in ivory towers and don't care about their decisions as they are out of touch with reality.

"Coun. Tim Bennett said there might need to be a conversation about the future of the park and whether the train, which represents the area’s colonial past, still has a place on the city’s road to reconciliation."......Sorry Timmy, my whole world doesn't revolve around reconciliation.

Can we just please leave the train? It brings so much enjoyment to families and little people. Why does everything have to be political? I am so looking forward to election time.

Why security cameras. You don't prosecute crime anyway so what's the point. You arrest someone, haul them away and book them, then let them out. Some useless liberal judge if they can get them to show up in court turns them loose with no jail time. You waisting taxpayers money again.

Mandatory life sentences should be a thing for these traffickers . Do better government..

The many reasons I avoid going into town add up. I will not be sacrificing my privacy for so called security. A shallow look demonstrates that the element that the cameras are meant to deter, don't care. OK, a tool to collect evidence, right, the way the courts handle the guilty is not exactly inspiring a lot of confidence in my security either. I will take responsibility for my own security, I am better at it I think. Step one, I won't be showing my face on downtown core cameras.

No public money should be put towards these cameras. Any other area of town doesn’t get handouts. Simply not fair.

In regards to the storage facility for the "Little Prince" it would also be a display storage facility for the antique REO Fire Engine which is currently stored in one of the City PG Fire Hall's. The "Little Prince " is a PG summer tradition for the last 45 years and is an affordable form of family entertainment for all CANADIANS.You learn from history in hope of making a better future.Quoting one famous news anchor "And that's the way it is "
