NBC's top climate reporter quits In an exclusive interview, veteran NBC meteorologist Chase Cain opens up about burnout, suppression, and why he's going independent.

β€œIt just really got to that point where I was just kind of exhausted by the sales, by the constant trying to explain and remind, like, hey, this is important. Please run this story,” Cain told HEATED. β€œIt just wore on me after a while.”

When the BC Conservatives voted for a bill to repeal the human rights code, the NDP caucus promptly put out a press release slamming the Cons who "couldn’t muster the courage to stand against it."

Oilers GMs seem to love making deals with their former teams. Two trades with Chicago this week from Bowman reminded me how much Holland loved dealing with Detroit.

Tonight, two of the white nationalists I reported on in this piece showed up to attempt to intimidate me on a private night out at a small music venue.

I’ll have more to say tomorrow. I’m safe.

They also didn’t pay cover πŸ–•

PHOTOS: The Nelson and area women who protect us - Nelson Star Ahead of International Women’s Day, meet local first responders

Ahead of International Women’s Day, we decided to celebrate all the women serving in first-responder roles. It’s a photo gallery, but took a lot of work to co-ordinate. Really happy with how it turned out and thankful that subjects bought in as enthusiastically as they did.

I understand why you wouldn’t let her do it. But maybe video it happening anyway, for journalism or something.

Exclusive | OpenAI Employees Raised Alarms About Canada Shooting Suspect Months Ago The ChatGPT maker opted against informing Canadian authorities about Jesse Van Rootselaar’s descriptions of violence last June.

Absolutely wild. WSJ reporting that some OpenAI staffers thought the Tumbler Ridge shooter's use of ChatGPT raised the potential of real world violence but leadership decided not to alert RCMP. www.wsj.com/us-news/law/...
