Raised in political life I am a critical thinker and rarely take things at face value. I look for logical explanations, and evidence to support conclusions

Have any of you been following the problems at @icbc?
They have no driver road test for class 6 from Nanaimo south for the next 6 months.

As such, anyone on a restricted licence set to expire by then is being forced to go back to take ALL the steps again, including written exam. Need some help from media to bring this story to light and pressure @bcndp @jjhorgan @mikefarnworthbc to correct this. #corpfailure

I would add to this, that I have now also looked at 5 lower mainland locations and not ONE has any space in the next 6 months.
This is something that deserves answers for. Is there a staffing or funding shortage @icbc @VaughnPalmer

Good morning
Where can I find the legislation, regulations or policy which governs class 6 licensing and the need to go back to beginning in instances where learners expires ? TIA

I’m old enough to remember when the NDP railed against the Carbon tax in British Columbia, rightly pointing out that it would punish average working folk for driving to work and heating their homes.
That was 2008 & the guy doing most of the Axe The Tax speeches was John Horgan

Today's ruling from the Supreme Court is great news for climate action in 🇨🇦.
BC has long been a leader in this fight. We're going to keep moving forward with North America's most progressive plan to reduce carbon pollution while building a cleaner, stronger economy for people.

800 #COVID19 cases is worrisome. But the numbers I've kept my focus on since day one are hospitalizations ICU cases. They have been fairly consistent (even down today) for a while. It appears more young folks (20-39 yr olds) are testing positive but don't become seriously ill.

High end battlebot? No - this motorist very lucky when saw blade came off of passing vehicle and wedged itself into her car. Ensure ALL items are secure before driving. #avoidedtragedy #lucky #secureyourload #drivesafe @YourCaledon #CaledonOPP ^im

$500 a tonne would be $1.11 a litre plus HST/GST on top of the current cost.
You’d be paying (or borrow to pay) $2.30 a litre

You haven’t seen anything yet . If re-elected Trudeau will finish the job . He will raise the Carbon tax up to $500 per ton in two steps and eliminate the rebates. @GasPriceWizard . I think that might take gas to $2 per litre before we get to the top of the next energy peak costs

In 9 years your #carbontax will be 37.5 cents/litre for gasoline & 45 cents/litre for diesel.
Soon it will cost Canadians $27 extra to fill up a minivan, $45 extra for a light duty pickup truck & $204 extra to fill a diesel fuel cylinder on big rig trucks that deliver everything
