🚑 Pagbabantay at Mga Insidente

  1. Dalawang mag-aaral sa elementarya sa Kelowna malubhang nasaktan matapos mabangga nang bumaba mula sa school bus. Naganap ang banggaan Huwebes sa Arbor View Drive sa Upper Mission ng Kelowna matapos magbaba ng mga estudyante ang bus; parehong dinala sa ospital ang mga bata na inilarawan ng pulisya na may malubhang pinsala. Sabi ng Kelowna RCMP na isang tao pansamantalang dinakip at iniimbestigahan kung nakabukas ang flashing red lights ng bus.
  2. Cyberattack sa Burnaby School District nagpahinto ng mga sistema at nagdulot ng pangamba sa pagtagas ng data. Tinamaan ang Burnaby School District ngayong linggo at nagdulot ng malawakang pagkaantala sa serbisyo at operasyon; iniimbestigahan ng opisyal ng distrito at pulisya ang posibleng paglantad ng data at lawak ng pagkasira ng mga sistema.

🚨 Krimen at Pampublikong Kaligtasan

  1. Siyam na Islamic schools sa buong Canada nakatanggap ng email na nagbabantang mag-‘slaughter’ ng mga Muslim; mataas ang alerto sa mga paaralan. Sabi ng Muslim Association of Canada na ang kanilang siyam na paaralan sa Ontario, B.C. at Quebec ay nakatanggap ng parehong anonymous na pagbabanta na pinirmahan ng isang “Citizen Vigilante,” kaya nagpatupad ng bayad na seguridad at nagpaalam sa pulisya, kasama ang pagsasangkot ng hate-crime unit ng Peel Regional Police at pinataas na mga patrol.
  2. Pinahintulutan si Shane Ertmoed, na may hatol sa pagpatay ng bata, ng 60-araw na unescorted temporary absence para mag-aral ng pagluluto. Si Ertmoed, na naghuhukom ng life sentence para sa pagpatay noong 2002 kay 10-anyos na Heather Thomas, ay maninirahan sa isang community residential facility na may 24-oras na superbisyon, magtatrabaho ng 4.5 oras kada araw kasama ang isang Red Seal chef, at ipinagbabawal siyang bumalik sa Lower Mainland ayon sa kundisyon ng Parole Board.

🏛️ Pamahalaan at Pulitika

  1. Iminungkahi ng lider ng B.C. NDP na si David Eby ang 2% buwis sa mga tapos na condo na hindi nabibili nang higit sa isang taon. Inanunsyo sa isang campaign stop sa Burnaby, sinabi ni Eby na magsisimula ang buwis sa 2% at tataas ng 1% sa bawat karagdagang taon na hindi nabebenta; ayon sa kanya, maaaring mabuksan nito ang humigit-kumulang 5,000 condo na kasalukuyang bakante, at binanggit ang Real Property Data estimate na CAN$4.4 bilyon halaga ng di-bentang yunit sa Metro Vancouver.
  2. Bagong poll ng Angus Reid nagpapakita ng pangunguna ng BC Conservatives sa 43% laban sa NDP na 35% pagkatapos tawagin ang snap election. Nalaman sa poll na 65% ng mga sumagot ay nagsabing “masyadong maaga” ang halalan, at 33% ang nag-aalala tungkol sa kahandaan ng BC Conservatives na mamuno; 20% ng mga sumagot ay undecided, at 35% ang “lubhang tiyak” sa kanilang boto.

💼 Ekonomiya at Negosyo

  1. Canpotex mag-iinvest ng CAN$500 milyon para i-upgrade ang Neptune Bulk Terminals sa North Vancouver. Inanunsyo ng exporter mula Saskatchewan ang investment sa groundbreaking nitong Biyernes para palitan at ayusin ang kagamitan sa terminal; naglalayong magpadala ang Canpotex ng higit sa 15 milyong toneladang potash mula Canada taun-taon at sabi nila na pag-iigihin ng upgrade ang mga export papuntang South America at Indo-Pacific.
  2. Isasara ng Starbucks Canada ang 250 tindahan sa North America, kabilang ang ilang lokasyon sa B.C., na ang huling mga araw ay bandang 26 Set. Sinabi ng Starbucks na mga 1% ng North American coffeehouses ang isasara sa mga lugar na hindi na makakita ng makatwirang landas pasulong; plano ng kumpanya ang hindi bababa sa 1,500 na store “uplifts” pagsapit ng fiscal 2026 at maglalagay ng mga notice ng pagsasara sa mga apektadong lokasyon sa B.C. ngayong weekend.
  3. Mga daan-daang drayber ng dump truck sa B.C. nagkonboy patungong Vancouver upang magprotesta laban sa rekord na presyo ng diesel na halos CAN$2.84/L. Mula Surrey at Abbotsford nagsimula ang konboy nitong Biyernes na nag-ulat ng diesel sa Vancouver na CAN$2.839 kada litro; nagbabala ang mga nagpoprotesta na pinipilit ng tumataas na gastos sa diesel ang mga independent operator na pasanin ang gastusin sa gasolina o ipasa ito sa mga customer, at dumalo sa rally si BC Conservative candidate Bruce Banman.

🏈 Isports

  1. Kinuha ng Vancouver Canucks ang goaltender na si Leevi Merilainen mula sa waivers ng Ottawa Senators. Ang 24-anyos na Finnish goaltender ay nagtala ng 8-10-1 record na may 3.51 GAA at .860 save percentage sa 20 laro para sa Ottawa noong nakaraang season; may 34 NHL games na sa kanyang karera at napili bilang third-round, 71st overall, noong 2020.
