Weather stations fall silent as school network nears the end of its run cheknews.ca/weather-stat...
It’s been more than 20 years since I installed the 1st school-based weather station at Strawberry Vale Elementary on March 11, 2005. Now, the project is at a critical juncture. Do I shut it down, or do I try to reinvigorate it? Decision day is Sept. 30, 2025.

I’ve been investigating Paramount’s deal with Trump. Here’s what we know:
- Trump sued CBS
- CBS called the lawsuit “meritless”
- Paramount (owner of CBS) still settled, handing $16 MILLION+ to Trump’s library
- Paramount has a billion-dollar deal that needs Trump’s approval
This post, written by my father, was originally published on Mar 22 2016. I am reposting this it is particularly timely in light of the ongoing controversies in local governance happening around Victoria. His case for amalgamation is very compelling. #yyj #bcpoli

Should the @liberalca.bsky.social and @mark-carney.bsky.social who are talking about “decarbonized oil” be charged under Canada’s new anti-greenwashing law (Bill C-59) that they recently bought in? Decarbonized oil? Do you mean hydrogen? #cdnpoli #bcpoli @stevenguilbeault.bsky.social

As a long time federal Lib & supporter of their climate plan, I'm disgusted by what I'm seeing in Ottawa. Talks re: dredging Burrard Inlet so Aframax tankers can export dilbit r shocking. Strong Liberal advocates 4 BC have been sidelined. We're left with no names to represent our interests #cdnpoli
I am struggling to see the difference between the Carney Liberals and the Harper Conservatives at this stage. It's early days, but I'm already musing that we might have been better off with a Conservative minority since at least we know where they stand on important issues. 1/2
Jonathan Wilkinson, one of Canada’s most effective ministers, not being in cabinet is shocking. It’s telling that Carney demoted the architect of Canada’s climate plan (representing Burnaby & North Shore) as they proclaim plans to dredge Burrard Inlet for Aframax tankers with BC NDP support #cdnpoli
My take on the Canadian Federal election for Vancouver Island.

Just did the CBC Vote Compass! I've always said I was a serial centrist! Looks like Vote Compass agrees. 😂 #cdnpoli
I could not in good conscience participate in this Gordon Conference in the US. I have cancelled my attendance. I join many other Canadians who have cancelled participating in events in the US. www.grc.org/machine-lear...
Eby just set a huge trap for the @bcgreens. It’s politics at its worst. If the greens vote for Bill 7 - “the NDP’s authoritarian regime act” they betray all BC. If they vote against it, Eby will say non confidence & call an election. Eby wants a majority. He may not get what he wants #bcpoli
This is a disturbingly obvious attempt to win a majority government. Let’s see if any NDP MLA has the courage to vote against this. The Greens could force the Speaker to cast the deciding vote. The federal NDP will now lose a ton of seats now in BC #cdnpoli #bcpoli 🍿

I rarely use Facebook but I found it rather unusual to see this sponsored ad appear in my feed. With Trump making America weak again, the DJIA likely heading for a major market correction after completing a double-top pattern Americans worldwide seem to want out. Putin is smiling!
That’s reassuring.
This article is very disturbing and has inspired me to change my profile picture. malcolmnance.substack.com/p/urgent-war...
And so, today, the classic double top pattern was hit on the NYSE today. The obviously fiscally incompetent US president has just triggered a major market correction. He is making America Weak Again.
“In times of crisis, great leaders take decisive action while inspiring and protecting the vulnerable, offering them strength and hope in the darkest of hours. And great leaders also warn of the danger that awaits us.”

Pretty rich for these folk to think that they got elected because of their views.
BC really needs a centrist option. It would nice to see a real BC LIBERAL party: fiscally responsible, socially progressive and environmentally conscious. #bcpoli

This is what you get when you put conspiracy theorists, oligarchs and narcissistic sociopaths in positions of power!
So many Americans voted against their own interest. And this was to be expected!

To my US friends. We look to you for leadership. Canada has always played a more diplomatic role. But now the US is an international pariah. Your leadership is utterly chaotic & playing into the hands of Putin & various oligarchs. Trump is making America weak again. What is wrong with you? #cdnpoli
Looks like the Dow is completing a classic double top pattern. That’s thanks to Trump and his incompetent approach to economic issues. He’s Making America Weak Again.
Agree. This is ridiculous and normalizes the absurd.
