🏛️ 政府與政治

  1. 卑詩保守黨候選人 Joachim Agou(喬阿希姆·阿古)因針對巴基斯坦與巴勒斯坦社群的社群貼文被除名。 臨時黨魁 Lorne Doerkson(洛恩·多克森)週四宣布除名,並表示若阿古當選「不會在黨團任職」;阿古的 X 帳號與黨內候選人名單已被刪除,他在維多利亞被接觸時拒絕回應。新民主黨候選人 Amna Shah(阿姆娜·沙阿)稱那些貼文「是可怕的種族主義」,促成多克森發表黨方聲明。

  2. 卑詩新民主黨(BC NDP)承諾若連任將凍結三年基本 ICBC 車險費率。 黨魁 David Eby(大衛·艾比)週四在列治文宣布此競選承諾,表示透過卑詩保險局(Insurance Bureau of B.C.)調整,基本費率將凍結三年。此承諾是在公眾對 2021 年無過失保險模式的辯論,以及臨時保守黨魁 Lorne Doerkson 於 9 月 29 日寄出的備選模式信件之後提出。

  3. 卑詩保守黨在素里再度紮營,距 10 月 24 日投票日逼近並推出新政見。 臨時黨魁 Lorne Doerkson 週四回到素里進行第二天造勢,並承諾公布政策,前一日他曾暗示對部分企業設備減徵省銷售稅。素里共有 10 個省選選區,2024 年素里—吉爾德福(Surrey-Guildford)選區由 Garry Begg(蓋瑞·貝格)以 22 票勝出,素里在選情上具關鍵性;保守黨 2024 年在素里贏得六席。

  4. 選戰期間各黨於卑詩各地互推對小型企業的政策承諾。 本週多個政黨提出小企業措施,包括大衛·艾比在溫哥華提出的貸款方案,最高可達 100 萬元,針對受關稅影響的小型與中型企業;保守黨則在不同場合提出設備省銷售稅減免;這些政策分別在本週於溫哥華與素里的活動中公布。

🚨 犯罪與公共安全

  1. 假釋委員會核准童殺者 Shane Ertmoed(謝恩·艾特摩德)60 天無陪同暫時離所,引發政治要求修法。 艾特摩德因 2002 年性侵並殺害 10 歲 Heather Thomas(希瑟·托馬斯)服無期徒刑,據報他在九月底獲准外出上烹飪課但後被延後;受害者母親 Jody Aspin(喬迪·阿斯賓)本週與保守黨聯邦議員 Frank Caputo(法蘭克·卡普托)會面,尋求修改暫時離所規定。假釋委員會去年拒絕他申請日假。

  2. 命案調查員在 Adam Mann(亞當·曼)審判中出庭作證,指控他涉及 Tori Dunn(托莉·鄧)於 2024 年 6 月 16 日之死。 統合命案調查小組(Integrated Homicide Investigation Team)警員 Const. Ryan Gerlinski(萊恩·格林林斯基)週四作證,表示他在 6 月 17 日查獲一把帶血且刀尖折裂的主廚刀,並在 Port Kells 住所採集 DNA 拭子與向死者男友採樣;被告 42 歲的亞當·曼週一對二級謀殺罪表示不認罪。

  3. 素里縱火攻擊的唯一嫌疑人被發現死亡,警方表示一名受害者重度燒傷。 素里警方報告指出,該起造成一名受害者嚴重燒傷的攻擊事件,唯一嫌疑人在事後被發現死亡;調查人員依舊將此案視為針對性攻擊在處理。

  4. 關於在 Discord 上策劃 Tumbler Ridge(坦伯里里奇)槍擊案的指控,正受到持續調查。 檔案審查人員正檢視有關 Discord 頻道被用來計畫 2024 年 10 月槍擊的報告;調查重點包括線上通訊與可能的協調行為,調查人員本週在報導中指出。
