10While the devil's in the details, at least she has a plan. I like it so far .

Province-wide state of emergency declared as wildfires grow
7Why does the news often omit the fact that most of the largest most distructive fires this summer have been human caused or under investigation meaning it clearly wasn't lightning? This needs to be probed, questioned and certainly part of the discussion and news.

4And i'm sure that Global SouthBC TV news staff have vested real estate interests in the south okanagan and that's a reason for their biased coverage in favor of the Summerland fire.When their news team uses the phrase " fires are raging across B.C. " what they really mean is Kamloops on south.To the Global SouthBC TV news team THAT is B.C..It must have taken everything they had to send a TV news crew to the Tumbler Ridge tragedy, after they located Tumbler on a map.

MLA Rosalyn Bird proposes multi-use inland port project
6This is such a great idea. A military base supported national would be a super stellar plan for Prince George. If there was ever a major event PG is located in a very safe geographic zone. The local college would be able to provide great training facility. How do we accelerate this plan Mrs. Bird, nerd to get Zimmer and Doherty on board.

MLA Rosalyn Bird proposes multi-use inland port project
We need an inland port but I believe it could have a more broad application. Ashcorfts has had much success with theirs and with the pressing ongoing fires in the south put province critically needs more of this infrastructure. I also think this is where a partnership with the L'heidli Tenneh would be of huge value to our region.

1a welcome center, that supposedly helps people who are evacuated and have no help, and it is closed on the weekend when it might be need is USELESS especially with all the fires this province has right now...

Old Knights Inn to be demolished
1a 2024 article titled BC Government Defends Deals to Buy Prince George Hotels “We’ve got three hotels in Prince George, all with the same individuals involved, all with massive profits for hotels that also needed to be renovated afterwards,” Rustad said. “This trend is very disturbing, to see that these kinds of trades are being made, that these individuals, whether having inside information or whatever it may have been.”

City's economic development manager urges action on major projects
1Rather than sitting in a nice comfy office an economic development office should be proactive making sure the city has a seat at the table in the planning stages of area projects. Once the money has been found and shovels are ready to hit the ground it is too lateInstead of asking what the city can do he should be pounding on the door telling them what the city has to offer for a project and how those goods and services can improve efficiency or save money.. If more is required that the city will do whatever it can to cut red tape to ensure it gets done. A soft sell approach will not work with projects of this scale

First-time council candidate touts 'well-rounded' background
I am starting to suspect by the way out money is managed, that some of these city administrators carry massive debt loads.
