all the fires in this town as of late is getting a little concerning......no actually a lot concerning......

Hmmmm ... I wonder if this is the work of another Fire Bug..???? Like the one woman who started a fire at 7-11 on 15th/central dew weeks ago or the one who lit Several fires all the way down Victoria st from 15th to 20th Ave. If so this is wayyy beyond ENUFF!!!! THESE G DAMN Homeless n Addicts are out of control. When are the people gonna say " THAT'S ENOUGH! WE'VE HAD ENOUGH " These people are ruining everything they touch. Don't even deserve housing cuz they burn those places down too. Dont believe me, look at the old Knights Inn or now the old North Star Inn/Connaught Inn. Not even done yet and boarded up broken windows, fires, calls for police and ppl with guns ffs. Im so sick of being hostage in my own town, HOW ABOUT YOU?

Fire at Fort George Baptist Church

Terrible .. and sad. On another note anyone else notice the difference in the color of the side walk in front of St Vincent's on 2nd Ave compared to surrounding side walks ? Someone should swab that area, looks like a breeding ground for a pandemic.

The past and potential future of Prince George's relationship with Jiangmen

Quite a humorous story but not really when you realize its PG taxpayers picking up the tab for these international holidays taken by Mayor and council members.No Chinese investments in PG and region have ever come from any of these five star holiday extravaganzas.All that's been delivered is a bunch of verbal exchanges and meaningless signed papers.Mayor Colin Kinsley visited China decades ago....does anyone know where that chopstick factory is ?

To the average person. Insurance companies aren’t in it to break even. They are for profit. Every fire affects everyone’s premiums. Owners, renters, non profits, residential or commercial. In a world full of rising costs this one can be stopped. Our politicians just need to grow a pair and stop bending to social warriors.

I notice they are very quiet on how much this is going to cost us and what we really get out of it

Fire at Fort George Baptist Church

Politicians are not the only people responsible for creating an atmosphere where this sort of crime occurs. How about a society whereby people spent as much time volunteering as they do with casual screen time? Numerous positive interactions with others would surely decrease crime. Instead of spending time watching that “important” game spend time with that teenager who is alone evenings due to a working single mother. That sort of thing makes young man less likely to become a firebug years later. That sort of thing times whatever would be amazing. Sitting on the sidelines barking at the moon does nothing. To paraphrase a famous quote: “ask not what your politicians can do for you; ask what you & others can do for your community.”

Copper theft leaves six communities without Telus service

the sad part is the scrap dealer who buy this metal has to know or at least should know it is stolen.if there was no buyer the thefts would stop.... start ID'ing the scrap sellers,,,,, proof of address and proof of where they got the metal....if they can't produce it don't buy the metal...

November to become Veterans and First Responders Month in BC

This is a great idea, first responders deserve recognition. It’s wild we live in a time where activists target the police, but say nothing about the horrible abuse and crime being carried out by criminals. Its not hard to figure out that legions of criminals have a profound effect on the public, than a handful of corrupt police. I just wish we would see tangible progress being made to protect first responders. It’s pathetic we live in a country that facilitates career criminals. Letting these people to endlessly commit crimes with a nothing but a slap on the wrist, only emboldens them and further endangers the public and the health and safety of first responders. Some of these people have dozens of convictions and they continue their spree with no intent to stop. They should be locked up permanentlyThe craziest thing is reducing peoples sentences because of trauma. So they can get out and continue to traumatize the same people

If every school and community had the same funding they did, they could implement some of the learnings.

CNC and partners helping students take Adventures in Health Care

I see this sort of thing as very important. Inspires youth. Not always easy for students to see the relevance of lot in schools. Programs like this can inspire & motivate students in all parts of their lives: school, possible careers, becoming a more thoughtful & caring person. Well done for those participating & for those who develop these sort of programs.

'Nelly's could rise from the ashes at some point,' says owner

Difficult circumstances & Mr Malgunas still has a positive outlook exemplified with the comment “PG has one of the biggest hearts for a city.” Wonderful. An example to all. A business worth supporting once up & running again.

Collision closes downtown intersection

Moved here about 3 years ago, I have a few safety recommendations for the core area:1st. Set maximum speed limit to 40 km per hour 2nd. Install a turn left light on the left turn lane only. No turn left on red.3rd. Replace all analog light bulbs with LED bulbs on all traffic lights. High visibility. 4th some traffic light intersections are crowded together, within a block of each other, so I recommend between lights installing signs on the left and on the right that say traffic lights ahead 50 m etc. Everybody gets home intact and vehicles in good health.

Copper theft leaves six communities without Telus service

This article was written with quotations from Telus that lack clarity."-damage caused by thieves attempting to steal copper cables, who cut through our fibre lines.""We are bringing in specialized equipment to repair extensive damage caused by thieves-"The way Telus described this incident it appears there may have been no actual theft of coated copper cable, but extensive damage to coated fibre cables.So did thieves actually get any copper? Or did thieves just cause extensive damage in an attempt to steal copper wire?I am left wondering if this was an actual attempt to steal copper wire or whether it was actually a deliberate attempt to sabotage communication in a large area of northwest BC? Maybe Telus should clearly label its coated fibre cables as "COPPER LESS CABLE, FIBRE ONLY INSIDE OF OUTSIDE JACKET"But also maybe thieves trying to steal copper cable that has no copper in it cannot read.
