ICYMI: “It’s a slap in the face! - Cinzia Rossi. @adriandix and @Fraserhealth deny family’s wishes and written consent falsely citing privacy law. @BCInfoPrivacy & @bcfipa agree. Real reason? Legal concerns? Falsely hiding behind privacy as an excuse is cleaner. @GlobalBC @CKNW
Some healing, but not too many answers for a B.C. family whose son passed away after doctors missed what was wrong with him. The health authority still not answering Global News questions about his care.

The initial notice passed this off as vandalism. In truth the vandalism/damage is minimal and more an issue of people seeking shelter. District still wouldn’t do interviews passing it off as an “operational matter”. It’s a social responsibility. @GlobalOkanagan @GlobalBC

While the District of Peachland said it reduced the washroom's hours due to vandalism, Global News inquiries reveal the change was "to discourage people from staying in the washroom for warmth and from causing damage."

Health Comms at its finest. @Interior_Health transfers patients to other hospitals & temp closes ERs regularly due to staff shortages. “Last resort” = new normal. Ask for comment on action taken? Comms: no interviews unless matter is “critical to public safety” until after elxn.

This is what happens when health authorities lose autonomy and every media request goes to the ministry for vetting (arguably 100% political). Issues in the ER don’t pause for an election, neither should accountability to the public.

Hey @TransLink. How is it that for the majority of this week, students waiting for the 745 Cottonwood have been passed by because the bus is full? These kids need service to get to school on time.

Engineering reports commissioned by BC Gov back in 2018 flagged vulnerability of bridge towers to ship strikes esp. with flared bows. Recommendations include rock berm for Lions Gate and staggered dolphin structures for IWM bridge. Still only in design phase right now. @GlobalBC
The ship strike and tragic collapse of Baltimore's Francis Scott Key Bridge early Tuesday morning is raising questions about safety on two Vancouver spans, particularly with the Trans Mountian expansion set to boost tanker traffic soon.

Thank you for watching Surviving Edmonton. I’m in awe of the response and discussions it’s generating.
The conversation continues with Alberta Housing Minister Jason Nixon and Boyle Street Community Services.
And—we’ve got an update on Troy and Leanne.
