‘What should the consequences be?’: Injured Whistler skier questions Canada’s ski-safety laws - BC News Two years after a high-speed collision at Whistler Blackcomb left her with a shattered knee and broken collarbone, skier Lesley Broadhurst says she isn't looking for another story about her accident. She'd rather talk about what happens next time—especially when the person who causes a crash just skis off.

Probably more like 50,000, or more. Eight years without a doctor, our entire life in BC.

Relying on the health lottery call line (primary care clinic) to see if we can win access, is not healthy or safe.

Sadly, I do not see a solution coming to Kamloops.

Tumbler Ridge is a village we hold close despite its isolation. This is devastating, and we are heartbroken with them. Tumbler is an absolutely beautiful community where we have played and worked.

Brutal. Stupid damn guns, again. So angry at this type of attack creeping into Canada.

In the poster for their residential school denial documentary, Juno News puts a blurb from noted liar and racist Keean Bexte in film festival laurels to make it look all official-like. In other words, it's perfect don't change a thing.

One of the main reasons we left AB is to get away from the resource rollercoaster.

The UCP claimed they would manage finances better. It's been nearly a decade of their gong show. They haven't managed any problem well. Finances, health care, business growth, or housing.

Next? Huge UCP deficits.

So telling of today's conservatives. I long for a place to vote ethically.

CPC delegates stole the voting machines and cards. Even though they were likely told to return them. 🤣 🙄 🤥

May I have the address of the cemetery where your loved ones are allegedly buried? I have questions. Oh, and any children who died. Give me their graves first, I'll start there. Shovel and pickaxe are waiting.

That's how sick you appear.

PEI Premier-elect Rob
Lantz received more votes this weekend than Poilievre did last week from the party faithful.

So did the loser in the PEI PC Party battle.

Mmm, I don't think so. Even Harper prefers Carney, it appears.

At least Poilievre gets to keep our mansion, chef, and driver.

You share links to "your truth" when the truth is in stacks of evidence from RCMP, Oblates Missionaries, TRC, and even words from the Pope.

Go away scum. Learn about true history, not the whitewashed one you want.

In the wake of the NS mass shooting, these idiots need severe consequences within the law. This is eerily close to the NS shooter's kit.

Made worse by the reality that RCMP did nothing with the NS shooter, despite knowing what they had.

Stop.

There is a mountain of evidence of violence, abuse, and killing at the former KIRS. It was documented by Oblates Missionaries, by government and RCMP.

Putting no effort into looking into these reports is lazy and shameful.

Their are survivors alive. You can hear if you listen.

No snow? Not even at the summit, beyond the odd patch. I've not seen that in my years in the region. I'm used to unpleasant cold, especially at night.

I wore a sweatshirt many evenings. That has never happened.

Hopeful early season snow pattern returns. This is not sustainable or safe.

Weather/climate

I drove from Kamloops to Burns Lake and back this week. Staying most of the week between BL and Prince George.

Above freezing the whole way north. Only one lake frozen, all others had water on top, some were partially melted.

Snow on the ground began only at McLeese Lake.

77% want 30kmh in residential zones.

Councilors are unlikely to see that level of support from any municipal vote this fall. 🧐

Make it happen! I saw 80kmh multiple times on our street yesterday. These are a few people who need forced motivation.
