Waking you up this morning with Stevie Nicks. It was on this day back in 1981 that her first solo album - Bella Donna - was released.
We're playing the biggest hit of the four that charted - Edge of Seventeen.

And yes! The Early Edition is on air!
Great show for you this morning.
Talking about federal help for softwood lumber industry here in BC, and a UBC study looking at VERY early signs of MS based on hospital visits long before an MS diagnosis.
Here's your weather:

do you want terminators? because that's how you get terminators

Good Morning! CBC's The Early Edition is on the air.
I'm waking up unusually tired this week, even for a guy who gets up at 3:00 AM.
I think I might be in Star Trek TNG Season 6, Ep. 5. The one where Riker is tired because aliens are abducting him in his sleep and doing experiments on him.

it has been said over and over but it’s worth reiterating in the face of this horrifying decision: RFK is quite literally joining the war on cancer on the side of cancer

Waking you up this morning with a very gentle, quiet, post-long-weekend song from a Quebec City band called "Men I Trust."
So if your alarm has just gone off - stay in bed for a bit.
The song is, "I Come With Mud" from their March 2025 album, Equus Asinus.
It's a lovely tune...

Good morning! Happy post-long-weekend Tuesday!
CBC's the Early Edition is on the air.

Here's your weather - and showers are back in the forecast. Yay!

Love you guys.

Yes. I hope everyone else got that!

Not swagger. Just that I work for a legitimate news organisation and public broadcaster.
We abide by journalistic standards and practices. We check facts. We verify.
It ain't tik tok.

I wouldn't have posted it if it didn't happen.
But as one person mentioned, the theme was supposed to be "How far we've come as a society."
I'm not sure that's what some people took away.

Real sources?
I was there. I took the photos. I spoke with them.
What real source would you prefer?
Some "content creator?" Some "influencer?"

What stage of capitalism is this?

Good Morning! Happy BC Day!
Yep, not only is The Early Edition here for you, we're Province-Wide!
Great BC Day show ahead.

The shirts of Pride:

Okay, so's here's Vancouver Centre Liberal MP Hedy Fry and some Federal Liberal colleagues, supporters and (presumably) staff at the Pride Parade in Vancouver.
I wish I was in the room when they chose their theme this year...

A bazillion people downtown for the pride parade. And this Granville...

Let's see what Illuminated E. Pender Goose is wearing today...

I imagine this has become a bit of a collector's item by now.
The screened, Kneecap "Falls Park" tee.

Yes, there is a song called "August and Everything After" - though Counting Crows didn't include it on the album of the same name.
Here's is a gorgeous video of the song being recorded at London's Air Studios with a full orchestra - it's brilliant.

Coming up on The Early Edition - we'll talk about what the "35%" Tariff means for Canada (less than you think.)
And we celebrate a birthday and the first day of August (and everything after) with our wake up song.
88.1 FM in Vancouver.

Good Morning - Happy Friday!
CBC's The Early Edition is on the air.
Great show this morning - lots on the tariff news out of the US.

Here's your weather, and a kitten...

Yeah, but 9 minutes before the restriction is no longer in force?

Not mine...

Gorgeous!
