Solid reporting from Global BC on recent events at Vancouver public hearings. It’s unfair and outrageous that callers from California, who admit they’ve never even been to Vancouver, are clogging up speaker lines with AI scripts & delaying feedback from local residents. #vanpoli

Some personal news: I am running to be mayor of West Vancouver in the Oct. 17 municipal election. Kirk LaPointe Announces Candidacy for Mayor of West Vancouver Says community needs stronger financial discipline, better consultation, and a clearer plan for the future WEST VANCOUVER, BC — Veteran journalist, business executive and community board member Kirk LaPointe is seeking the office of Mayor of West Vancouver, launching a campaign focused on restoring public trust, bringing greater discipline to taxes and spending, strengthening village centres and local business, planning responsibly for housing and infrastructure, and giving West Vancouver a stronger voice at Metro Vancouver. Learn more, and how to support, at “We need to manage public money more carefully, support a healthier local economy, and make sure West Vancouver speaks with a stronger voice regionally,” LaPointe said. “Above all, we need to rebuild confidence that local government is working with the community, not simply presenting decisions to it. People want to know their voice matters before decisions are made, not after.” LaPointe said he is entering the race because local government has become too reactive, too costly, and too disconnected from the people it serves. He said West Vancouver needs leadership that listens earlier, explains decisions more clearly, and works with the community on a practical long-term plan. LaPointe has spent decades in journalism, business, and public life, leading major national and local news organizations, serving in senior business and communications roles, acting as an ombudsman, teaching at the university level, and serving on community not-for-profit boards. He said those experiences have been grounded in public accountability, sound judgment, and helping people understand complex issues and institutions. “My career has been about asking tough questions, listening closely, and ethically holding institutions to account,” LaPointe said. “I want to bring that same seriousness, openness, and respect for the public to the mayor’s office.” LaPointe said West Vancouver needs a more disciplined approach on taxes, spending, infrastructure planning, and service delivery with greater burdens looming and many residents feeling they are being asked to pay more without enough clarity, consultation, or long-term vision. He said the community also needs a practical economic plan to strengthen village centres, support local business, and broaden the tax base over time. He said West Vancouver must plan thoughtfully for changing housing needs, including gentle densification that respects neighbourhood character and protects livability. He said the community must be more welcoming to seniors, families, workers, and younger generations who want to build their lives here. LaPointe said recent controversies, including the paid parking debate, have reinforced a growing public concern that consultation too often comes late in the process, after key decisions have effectively been shaped. He said decisions affecting daily life, neighbourhood character, and local business must be grounded in meaningful public engagement and clear public justification. He also said West Vancouver needs stronger accountability at Metro Vancouver, where major decisions on spending, infrastructure, and regional priorities have significant local consequences. He would not accept additional compensation from the Metro Vancouver board. “This is a community with deep strengths, high expectations, and a strong sense of place,” LaPointe said. “It deserves leadership that is prudent, consultative, and prepared to work with residents on a real plan for the years ahead.” Further details of LaPointe’s campaign for the October 17 election will be announced in the coming weeks.

Kamlager-Dove: Well, I do think that Speaker—or “Squeaker”—Johnson caved and did what Democrats have been telling him to do for months now, because the American people are sick of waiting in long, long lines at the airport. They are sick of having to apologize to federal workers who are working without a paycheck. And they are sick of Republicans clogging up the government and stopping it from working.

Protecting Vancouver: Drew Takes a Stand After a Year of Protests For over a year, weekly political protests have dominated Vancouver’s prime tourist and cultural spaces. Families, kids, local businesses, and visitors are being forced to absorb aggressive political messaging in areas meant for enjoyment, community events, and public safety. This isn’t about free speech — it’s about boundaries. Vancouver cannot become a permanent protest zone every Saturday, especially with global events on the horizon. Drew lays out what he’s seen, why it’s escalating, and why this needs to stop now. Full video drops in the morning.

🇨🇦 North Shuswap’s Police State… Shelter in place orders now being enforced for locals of Lee Creek, Scotch Creek, Celista, Magna Bay and Anglemont who stayed behind to protect their homes and properties from the government arson attacks. Those who returned to their property by boat, as all roads have been blocked, and manned now by local police or officers imported from Vancouver. RCMP and Conservation Officers are parked on drive ways and at gates preventing residents from leaving their properties – Unable now to help each other and have virtually no access to food, water or fuel.

I've been a Chairman at every level, from local to national, and I've never seen Republicans dominating on voter registration like we are now. That, paired with President Trump barnstorming the country and our voters showing up in November, is how we are going to win.

I had a ball on a recent hike with kids from Compton, Inglewood, and South Central Los Angeles, many of whom had never been in the Santa Monica wilderness before, even though it’s not far from their neighborhoods. It’s important for our youth to experience nature and to feel the sense of accomplishment that one gets from overcoming challenges like climbing a mountain. #Kennedy24

🌍🌏⚽️🇨🇦 : Mark Carney congratulates David Eby for Vancouver showcasing the best of Canada during FIFA. Premier David Eby and the VPD spent huge resources clearing the homeless drug addicts from the streets and stopping open air drug use. This is the same government that swore we needed open air drug use, human feces on the sidewalk, injection sites and needed to fight stigma around homelessness, to save lives. But I guess those "life saving measures" are not needed during FIFA. The BC NDP are so embarrassed about the conditions they forced on Vancouverites, that they had to cover it all up, when the world comes to major events. If history is any guide, things in Vancouver will return to the wretched old normal in a few weeks & slide even further into dystopia, heading into winter. If there ever was proof the BC NDP are a failed government, it's the need to radically change how Vancouver operates, simply because the world is temporarily watching. Let us all push for a Fall election in British Columbia. To take back our Province from the pro cartel BC NDP that trashed paradise.

Does Tom Bower know that there are hundreds of videos from the 2025 Invictus Games, right? Second, the Invictus Games Foundation publishes a final report after every Games, and according to that final report, the Vancouver Games had 125,000 total in-venue spectators across all events, with the Opening Ceremony at BC Place Stadium selling out at 40,000 attendees. The Vancouver Games were heavily covered by the press, both friendly and hostile, to the Sussexes, so if this had actually happened, it would have been reported already, so it's a bit convenient for him to say this. But he does have a history of making things like saying Meghan's mother Doria went to jail.

Joe Rogan and Taylor Sheridan blast California for passing a law specifically designed to stop Nick Shirley from investigating fraud. Rogan ended with a legendary rant about the Somali daycare fraud that Shirley uncovered. SHERIDAN: “Didn’t California pass a law?” ROGAN: “A Nick Shirley Law.” SHERIDAN: “To prevent that...specifically that guy from f*cking poking around in California?” ROGAN: “Yes! Yes! Yes!” “I mean, they’ve even referred to it as the ‘Nick Shirley Law.’” “The idea is to keep people from investigating fraud, which is outlandish!” “That is OUTRAGEOUS!” “That is a crazy thing to emphasize. And they say, well, these people are showing up at daycares and looking in.” “Right. They shouldn’t, you’re right. 100%. Random people from the internet should not be showing up at daycares with cameras. I agree.” “HOWEVER...when there’s NO ONE in that daycare for YEARS and YEARS and YEARS, and they can prove that f*cking MILLIONS of dollars are being earned by that daycare and there’s no one in there...it gets a little weird.”

I’m at BC Ferries Tsawwassen Terminal. Both Jordan Armstrong and @jungangela have been here and I wanted to see what’s going on first hand. It’s absolute mayhem. It’s easy for CEO Jimenez to say he understands the concerns raised by British Columbians about BC Ferries in an article. He and the BC Ferry Board should be down here with the PEOPLE who are SUFFERING FROM HIS INCOMPETENCE.

Spencer Pratt is now only four points behind Karen Bass according to a Tavern Research poll from May 1-4, 2026. Bass has been stalling in the polls over recent weeks, and Nithya Raman remains in third place. Pratt has been steadily rising thanks to his enthusiastic appeal and positive publicity, in part from influencers who don’t even work for his campaign. People are hungry for change in Los Angeles and California. (Video: AI)
