MLA accused of 'stunts' Re. Effort to oust MLA underway (Castanet, March 13)

I’d encourage the residents of Kelowna-Lake Country - Coldstream to back the Armstrong recall petition.

Any replacement MLA would be better for her constituents.

She really needs to stop this crap and get out of politics. We have important things to be worried about than thinly veiled racism. This isn’t the way to deal with this matter but it is giving her a voice to spout her views of hatred.

I thought it was just me, but now I’m seeing more and more chatter online about frustrations with typos on iPhone keyboards.

Netflix Backs Out of Bid for Warner Bros., Paving Way for an Ellison Takeover

The richest man owns X.

The second and third richest men control Google.

The fourth richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.

The fifth richest man owns The Washington Post.

And now the sixth richest could soon take over both Paramount and Warner Bros.

See the problem here?

If Team Canada scores one goal a minute in the third period they will win the game 21 - 1.

I may be an early riser, but it’s not often that hockey is what’s on my TV at that time, but I imagine much of the country has done the same. Even Missy is getting into it!

I was late to watching this week’s episode of Starfleet Acadamy and somehow avoided spoilers. All I can say is wow shit just got real. I have so many feelings right now.

One thing that is on my mind this morning: There is a dangerous counterfactual attack on e-bikes all across the US right now and there are no bike companies or bike orgs pushing back with clear storytelling to combat it. A multi-billion dollar industry without a clear comms strategy.

The city just laid off 300 people. "Zero means zero" etc. But ok let's have a $2 million one-night show.

Honestly the dumbest thing about this is that the funding shortfall for the Celebration of Lights - for 3 shows - was about $650k
