David Eby says his kid was in a local childcare and these were $10 a day spots. Eby donated the difference to a non profit provider. The Conservative plan for child care: Eliminate the current plan. I remember being on a multi year wait list for child care when the BC Liberals were in power. #bcpoli

Conservative leader just admitted Maahs was spreading hate - but he’s still keeping Maahs in the caucus. #bcpoli

Doerkson agrees his candidate MLA Maahs attack on MLA Sturko and gay people is hateful? But stands with her?
Trump’s taken to publicly displaying his impotence. #AskNatalie

We understand many in our city are feeling unsettled following the critical incident at Westview Shopping Plaza on July 21, 2026. Seeing an event like this whether on the news, through footage circulating online, or perhaps even in person, can be overwhelming and upsetting. (1/4)

Aboard a flight to Angola, Pope Leo XIV noted that “a certain narrative…has not been accurate,” during his trip to Africa. He referred to the coverage of President Trump's comments about him, adding that his words at the Peace Meeting in Cameron were “prepared two weeks ago.” He emphasized the Church’s focus remains “proclaiming the Gospel…to promote justice…[and] peace in our world.”

President Trump has, oddly, accused Pope Leo XIV of being "weak on crime," as if the Vicar of Christ were a mayor or a governor. Here's someone else who would probably be criticized for being too lenient with criminals, even promising one a place a heaven:
One of the criminals who were hanged there kept deriding him and saying, “Are you not the Messiah? Save yourself and us!” But the other rebuked him, saying, “Do you not fear God, since you are under the same sentence of condemnation? And we indeed have been condemned justly, for we are getting what we deserve for our deeds, but this man has done nothing wrong.” Then he said, “Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom.” He replied, “Truly I tell you, today you will be with me in paradise.”
(Luke 23)

I doubt Pope Leo XIV will lose any sleep over this, before he begins his pilgrimage to Africa tomorrow. But the rest of us should. Because it is unhinged, uncharitable and unchristian. Is there no bottom to this moral squalor?

Pope Leo XIV: "Even the holy Name of God, the God of life, is being dragged into discourses of death. A world of brothers and sisters with one heavenly Father vanishes, as in a nightmare, giving way to a reality populated by enemies. We are met by threats, rather than the invitation to listen and to come together. Brothers and sisters, those who pray are aware of their own limitations; they do not kill or threaten with death. Instead, death enslaves those who have turned their backs on the living God, turning themselves and their own power into a mute, blind and deaf idol (cf. Ps 115:4–8), to which they sacrifice every value, demanding that the whole world bend its knee."

Pope Leo XIV at the Stations of the Cross: "Every person in authority will have to answer to God for the way they exercise their power." Jesus says. "Whatever you do to another human being, especially to the small and vulnerable, you do unto me. And it is to me that you will one day give an account."

God help us. This is disgraceful language coming from a Christian, or anyone with a soul. It was just as wrong to celebrate the death of Charlie Kirk as it is to celebrate that of Robert Mueller. May they rest in peace. And may we never forget that Jesus's message is about mercy.
