@WhitehorseStar Tragic news. I have fond memories of working at the star with some great people in the 80s.
The systems needed to support Journalism in Canada are broken and few seem to care.

Very large police presence down near Granville Island on the seawall. Divers are suiting up and there is a police boat on the water.

And a Jeep came out of the lane, saw the carnage down the hill, and decided to go up the hill instead. Me: yer ngmi.

Lameys mill rd a sheet of ice. 6 buses stuck! #vancouversnow #snow

another day, another derelict boat washes aground in false creek. When is @CityofVancouver going to do something (anything!) about this problem?

@eastsidedads @michaelgeller @ParkBoard here's my pic with the machine in question....

Granville island this morning

[greg rasmussen @CBCgreg]

the marquis de sade at #telus who insisted I couldn't cancel services I was paying for without a blood sample and 400 page handwritten letter delivered to telus HQ by dawn. (after putting me on hold repeatedly for no reason whatsoever)

[greg rasmussen @CBCgreg]

Did the Marquis de Sade personally train everyone at #telus customer service?

[greg rasmussen @CBCgreg]

@TheresaLalonde Congratulations!! Welcome to the party.

And now for the very serious subject of my cat chasing the squirrel on the TV.

@oryxspioenkop looks like half of a dog tag - taken off after a soldier dies? (just watched all quiet on the western front - looks the same)

@charliesmithvcr @pditchburn @JamesBRoberts @CBCRadioAnne Those were the days charlie! Very sad to hear about what's happened to you and others at the Straight. It used to be a great publication.

[greg rasmussen @CBCgreg]

@palmerla @cbcradio Absolutely to both

[greg rasmussen @CBCgreg]

All the best @davidfrenchcbc ... enjoy sweet sweet retirement!

[Doug Herbert @DHerbertCBC]

Huge congrats to @davidfrenchcbc as he is set to retire after reading his last newscast this morning. David has spent an amazing 33+ years in the biz covering news all over BC. And despite the early AM starts, he remains a nice guy. Please share your congrats with him! #Kelowna

So why is @McDonalds still operating in Russia?

[greg rasmussen @CBCgreg]

@katyakotrikadze Katerina, which organizations can we contribute $$ to that support Russian journalists in exile and those continuing to fight for press freedom?

[greg rasmussen @CBCgreg]

In the debate over using #RussianOil why not put a 90% tax on it to remove the profits for Russia as described here

use the revenue to rebuild/defend #ukraine and defund Russia?

[greg rasmussen @CBCgreg]

Frightening close call for Sky News journalists. Amazing they survived.
