It is worthy of significant concern, not just because this has happened on your dime, but because this isn’t the way a just society operates. Regardless of what the special prosecutor arrives at with respect to former Solicitor General john Les, the torture of having spent such an extraordinary amount of time under a cloud [...]

Honestly, posts like this are painful for me. Suzanne Anton is a very likable, committed, sometimes exceptional, but mostly highly competent councilor for the City of Vancouver. But why on God’s green orb she bothers to pretend that as a mayoral candidate she would even have a snow cone’s chance in hell against Gregor (or [...]

In the ongoing saga of how far Bill Good can bury the once most valuable radio slot in Canada (thanks to Rafe), I was told over the weekend of the Vanilla Man’s on air faux pas. After yet another, booooooring interview with his pal the Premier earlier in the week, on Friday, he was called [...]

I like Mary Polak. I know her socially. We have many mutual friends. But her BLIND, I repeat, BLIND support of anything coming out of the Premier’s bailiwick and her dogged refusal to deal with issues related to child poverty in this province, is not only frustrating, but alarming. She is a VERY bright woman, [...]

There is no other way to describe this man who claims he is looking out for the best interests of the people of this city. He’s a joker. But an evil and nasty one. It’s not enough that his insufferable agenda somehow merges with the Mayor’s…for the most part, but now under the spurious guise [...]

The weekend has proven somewhat restful. It’s really my own fault. I think I just wanted a few days to reload, LOL! And I’ve been doing LOTS of research on some very interesting pieces related to the Preem and one VERY telling story on the Mayor of Vancouver and those who surround him. Plus much more! [...]

My apologies, but I’m burning out. I’ve got about six or seven backlogged stories and another major Campbell piece for Monday. But I just really need a bit of a break, so, my apologies, but the Dunsmuir bike lane insanity will also have to wait until then too (but when you read about the fiscal [...]

And she shouldn’t resign from being Deputy NDP Leader alone–she should resign her seat in Parliament. Although, I must admit that this is no surprise for me. The local NDP and supporting brethren in Vision Vancouver are well-known to often advocate for Palestine–at the exclusion of the Israeli state. In some cases, they take radical [...]

I readily admit it. I don’t really like MMA. I never have. I admire, very much, the athleticism of the participants and the dedication to their craft, but this isn’t a sport. Beating the living crap out of someone, using almost any means possible, is not my idea of sport. It’s what we used to [...]

Much has been written about NPA all-round good guy Ian Robertson running for Mayor. And that’s a rarity for someone in his second term as Parks Commissioner to be getting such accolades, but Robertson doesn’t deserve them, he’s earned them. No one on the NPA has so handsomely delivered body-blows and straight jabs to the [...]
