    the best place in the city, on the seawall past the lions gate bridge, when the full ocean opens up and the pavement bends out of view a world of possibilities, just waiting to be explored -30-

    nobody: me: in the history of disney animated movies there have been exactly 18 types of songs, and i'm going to tell you about each of them

    Replying to @j_mcelroy
    This is the Disney Songbook Table of Elements. It contains every single original Disney animated song, put in categories, organized by time era, and colour-coded for specific films.

    just to be very clear about why many people seem upset about this comparison: - in the video, the pedestrian is not breaking any laws but the driver is - the driver can be moderately inconvenienced for 2-3 seconds while the pedestrian can be killed
    Pedestrian safety is a two-way street. What pedestrians and drivers can do to make our roadways safer ow.ly/zRzo50PWEkq

    Readers added context
    The province of British Columbia has a Distracted Driving Law that prohibits the use of hand held devices such as cell phones. www2.gov.bc.ca/gov/content/tr… No laws prohibit the use of headphones or hoodies while pedestrians use marked crosswalks. In this video, only the driver performing an illegal act.

    I just want to point out that the convoy protestors chose a route that involves going down a 2km road where there’s no possible exit or detour through side streets. And the counterprotestors stopped them at the very end of it.

    If you won't listen to Justin Trudeau, Ryan Reynolds, or any other public figures right now, then at least heed the words of true Canadian royalty.

    A little update on this: - The marketer deleted the video from their company's TikTok and Instagram accounts - The property management company deleted their posting on Craigslist for the $2000 rentals - We'll be doing a story on this, and I understand other media are as well

    A small town in B.C. has the hottest recorded temperature in Canadian history one day, then eclipses that record the very next day, then eclipses it again for a 3rd straight day, and on the 4th day it has a catastrophic fire. It's terrifying.

    you could write thousands of words about British Columbia's floods happening in the aftermath of a world climate conference full of warnings that we're running out of time or you could look at a single @Ben_Nelms photo

    arguing that a disaster that hit merritt, princeton, vancouver island and the fraser valley isn't connected to climate change because 70 years ago there was a big flood in one of those four regions in an entirely different time of the year isn't the gotcha moment you think it is
