Legendary international marathon runner Baba Fauja Singh has passed away after being struck by a vehicle near Jalandhar during a walk.

I had the chance to speak to a very brave ER doctor who has made some damning statements about BC healthcare.
This feels like a watershed moment to me for healthcare in the province. Something has to change.

Seeing so many folks post about ER wait times in BC, and last week, I had to go into RCH ER. Arrived at about 10 pm on Thursday night. Didn't get to see a doctor until about 7 am on Friday morning. The docs and nurses were great... but our system is REALLY messed up.

I was also told by a nurse that there were only 2 nurses and one doctor staffed for that shift (I'm not sure if that's the norm). I overheard the doc say that he had seen about 15 patients that night.

Lol @ the outrage at this very tame Pride month message. People are losing it over absolutely nothing. I even saw some prominent influencer here asking why "straight people" weren't allowed.
Dw, you're still allowed to fly on ANY flight you want, Karen. You're gonna be ok.

Our first all-2SLGBTQIA flight was a heartfelt celebration reflecting our unwavering commitment to inclusivity and equality, in the air and on the ground.
