You’d think there was an actual playoff game happening here… 11,000 tickets sold for a viewing party at Rogers Arena. All tickets $15, the proceeds going to Canucks for Kids Fund @GlobalBC
NEW - Following a meeting with senior federal government officials set for today, the B.C. Government will be announcing this afternoon it has asked for decriminalization exemptions to ban drug use in all public places including hospitals and parks. #bcpoli
The final piece in the series...
If you want to know a little back story to how Chris Bailey's story came to light... you can listen here to my conversation with @JasJohalBC on @CKNW podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the…
The Stanley Park that Christenson Bailey walked into 34 years ago looks very different from today. Tonight, in the final installment of a Global News Hour at 6 series, he takes us through the changes he’s seen over the decades and what comes next for the park’s longest resident.
Christenson Bailey has spent the last three decades living in Vancouver’s Stanley Park and says he has loved every minute of it. He survived on only $300 a year and used only candlelight for nearly two decades. READ MORE: trib.al/E7MCBR2
Bailey says, in the early days, he loved the remote feeling of the park. For more than 25 years he sustained his lifestyle and created his art. But as @AlissaMThibault explains in part two of a Global News series, things started to change in 2017. READ MORE:…
This is amazing storytelling. 👏
Living in Stanley Park for 30 years has inspired Christenson Bailey to create beautiful works of art. Tonight, in part two of a Global News Hour at 6 series, @AlissaMThibault takes us through the twists, turns, triumphs and tribulations of the Vancouver park's longest resident.

@AlissaMThibault Fascinating story about the Stanley Park "Monk"! He needs a book written about him. Looking forward to part 3. I'd love to hear what he thinks about the current tree removal project. Thanks, Alyssa!
This is amazing storytelling. 👏
People have always lived in Stanley Park, but did you know someone has been there for 34 years? He's been there by choice, and his time is coming to an end. This is part 1 of a 3-part story. Meet the man who’s lived 30 years in Stanley Park. @GlobalBC globalnews.ca/news/10418430/…
What a fantastic story - lots of emotion and colour. Bravo @AlissaMThibault and @GlobalBC team.

@BrendanDawe Only thing missing is more neighborhood shops. Vancouver’s planning for having retail on main roads only is a fundamental flaw in planning.
In tomorrow's @currentfv member's email, I write about "earned media" and an emerging world filled with press releases, media relations executives, media trainers—and little to no actual media.

NEW: @JustinTrudeau is in Vancouver to announce a national renters’ bill of rights, which will include a legal aid fund to protect against bad landlords Also moves to have rent history being taken into account on one’s credit score to help qualify for a mortgage @CTVVancouver
Unqualified because I'm a Professional Engineer, a Project Management Professional, and a @UBCSauderSchool graduate with nearly seven years experience as a parliamentarian? Or unqualified because I'm a woman who had a baby?
@BowinnMa @nathancullen Bowinn, you are showing how completely unqualified you are to have the position and great power of responsibility bestowed upon you. God help our freedoms, safety and our province
More of my thoughts in the below story for CTV. Thanks for providing some important context on this @martinmacmahon bc.ctvnews.ca/b-c-government…
Ahoy. I don't tweet often anymore but when I do going forward it will likely be about @BCFerries. After 16 years as a reporter, the last seven as a proud @BCLegislature press gallery member covering #bcpoli for CityNews & CKNW, I am moving on to a new challenge with BC Ferries.
Also I’d like to think my early morning musings to the Premier helped influence this decision. Either way this is an encouraging step forward and I hope there’s enough resources to support.
This is amazing news! My husband and I went overseas for IVF because getting it in BC was not financially feasible. While this is too late for me I’m encouraged by this step
NEW: BC Government announces one round of IVF will be covered starting April 2025. Gov says people should be able to have a child 'regardless of their relationship status, who they love and how much money they make'.
STORY: Meet Jack. When his wife got sick he could no longer volunteer at Mission's food bank, so he started making jam - a lot of jam. Every couple weeks he delivers 100 or so jars to the food bank. Jack seems great. @GraceRuth44 in today's @currentfv fvcurrent.com/p/mission-jam-…
