🏛️ 政府与政治

  1. 不列颠哥伦比亚保守党(BC Conservative)候选人乔阿基姆·阿古被开除,因其社交帖文针对巴基斯坦和巴勒斯坦社区。 临时党魁劳恩·多克森周四宣布开除阿古,并表示若当选阿古“不会在党团内任职”;阿古在社交媒体上的推特账号被删除、党网站名单也已移除,他在维多利亚被接触时拒绝置评。新民主党(BC NDP)候选人阿姆娜·沙(Amna Shah)称这些帖文是“可怕的种族主义”,促成多克森发表相关声明。

  2. 不列颠哥伦比亚新民主党(BC NDP)承诺若连任将对基础州车险费率实行三年冻结。 党魁大卫·艾比周四在列治文宣布这一竞选承诺,称冻结将适用于通过不列颠哥伦比亚保险局的基础费率。此承诺是在公众就2021年无过错保险模式的争论以及临时保守党魁劳恩·多克森9月29日就替代模式致函之后提出的。

  3. 保守党在萨里再次拉票,距10月24日投票临近并推出新政纲。 劳恩·多克森周四返回萨里,进行第二天的竞选并承诺公布政策,前一天他已暗示将对部分商业设备实施省销售税减免;萨里含有10个省选选区,2024年加里·贝格(Garry Begg)以22票赢下萨里—吉尔福德(Surrey-Guildford),该地区在上次选举中至关重要。保守党在2024年赢得萨里六个席位。

  4. 各党在省内竞选期间互相提出针对小企业的竞诺。 本周多党在温哥华和萨里分别发布对小微企业的措施,包括大卫·艾比提出的对受关税影响的小中型企业提供最高可达100万加元贷款计划,以及保守党关于设备省销售税减免的承诺。

🚨 犯罪与公共安全

  1. 假释委员会批准对儿童杀人犯肖恩·厄特莫德为期60天的无陪同临时外出,引发政治层面要求修改相关规则。 肖恩·厄特莫德因2002年性侵并杀害10岁希瑟·托马斯(Heather Thomas)被判无期徒刑,9月下旬获准外出参加烹饪课程但随后被推迟;受害者母亲乔迪·阿斯平本周会见保守党国会议员弗兰克·卡普托,寻求修改临时外出规则。假释委员会去年曾拒绝其日间假释申请。

  2. 调查凶杀案的警官在亚当·曼(Adam Mann)被控托里·邓(Tori Dunn)于2024年6月16日死亡一案的审判中作证。 综合凶杀案调查组(Integrated Homicide Investigation Team)警员瑞安·格林林斯基(Ryan Gerlinski)周四作证称,他在6月17日缴获一把带断尖、沾有血迹的厨师刀,并从波特凯尔斯(Port Kells)住所及邓的男友处采集了DNA拭子;被告亚当·曼,42岁,于周一对二级谋杀指控表示不认罪。

  3. 萨里一宗纵火袭击中造成一名受害人重度烧伤,警方称疑犯为单独一人,后来被发现身亡。 萨里警方报告称,此起事件中的唯一疑犯在案发后被发现死亡;调查人员继续将此案视为有针对性的袭击。

  4. 对坦布勒里奇(Tumbler Ridge)枪击案的持续调查关注疑犯是否通过Discord策划。 正在审查该案的官员查看了报告,称某些Discord频道可能被用于策划2024年10月的枪击事件;调查目前聚焦于在线通信和可能的协同作案迹象。
