Apparently a “serious” police incident on Route 3 ferry, according to a B.C. Ferries employee. I saw at least 5 emergency vehicles heading towards the ferry while waiting in lineup in HB. 12:10 to Langdale delay. #BCFerries #SunshineCoast

Listened yesterday for the first time in a year - and I cried. As someone who had never been a journalist till I joined CBC at 65, this project meant the world to me. I'm so happy that everyone can still enjoy it online. There are so many more stories to be told. Not done yet!

Thrilled that my documentary Better Late will air again today at 4pm across Canada (4:30 in NL) on CBC Radio. This episode is dedicated to the memory of my guest Eli Mitchell, who passed away a few months ago. You can catch the episode online already cbc.ca/listen/live-...

Sorry to hear of the passing of former Gibsons mayor Barry Janyk… in the words of the Town’s statement on Insta, Barry Was “one of the BC coast’s most memorable, colourful and influential community leaders.” Yup.

This series was one of the most exciting feats of audio production my earholes have ever devoured. 7 months ago, I knew only that baseball existed as a pastime. Now, I use the terms bullpen and RBI with confidence — and I’ve cried over Freddie Freeman. 💙 ⚾️

My old colleague @dswdrff did a thing looking back briefly one of the Sunshine Coast’s legendary annual rituals -The Boat Blow-Up! (And if Murder in a Small Town gets a second season I expect to see the tradition incorporated into one of the scripts 😏) labs.canadaland.com/2024-loc…

So cool to see this happen. Congrats @CathyBrowne and Jen Wilson! Such a thoughtful doc about a thing we all do, if we’re lucky.

Such an honour to be recognized - and it couldn’t have happened without Jen. I’m so thrilled and so humbled.

The upside to having a terrible pitching average in this industry is that eventually the satisfaction of submitting a pitch becomes an end in itself - creating less space for the disappointment of an inevitably unfulfilled desire. #JournoPhilosophy

This q-line by @rumblestripvt is so thoroughly humbling, not just because many of her q’s are spontaneous, derived from pure focus and respect, but because they foreground Mark’s astounding insight. I’m utterly blown away. No words, really.
