Committees like these enable volunteers to contribute their time towards building and maintaining a city.
Their time is worth millions of dollars and their advice saves millions more. Cutting these might save $160,000 in expense, but it will cost 10 times that amount to pay staff for half the work.

Place National Guard in harm’s way for no good reason. Two members are tragically and unnecessarily shot. The reckless regime’s response: We’re sending 500 more National Guard troops! What a disgrace.

I think the Fawcetts have provided so much to this community over an extended timeframe that I think it probably actually is debatable whether their development has any bearing on their donation to the Arts Centre or whether they are doing this because they want to leave a legacy.

Grizzly attack on 11 kids & teachers in BC.
“one teacher jumped in front of the bear to allow the children to get away…he jabbed the bear’s eyes with his fingers and that’s how he was able to… how the bear just left him.”
“That teacher was later airlifted from the scene.”

I'm always thankful for the leadership AND engagement showcased by New West Mayor @pjnewwest.bsky.social ! Way to go my friend!
Last Friday, I attended a meeting convened by @visionzerovancouver.ca with regional elected folk, transportation & public health professionals to talk about inter-agency collaboration on the ending of road deaths and serious injury. It helped solidify for me the value of the #NewWest VZ approach.

Honestly, for Toronto and Jays fans that is an unforgettable, indelible, brutal way to lose. That is pure heartbreak, pure what-if, forever. And that’s part of what made that one of the best baseball games anyone will ever see.

Keep using your words. Keep passively obstructing (like the cyclist in the video). Don't turn violent
