@panelguy1 @steeletalk The facts are 1500 batteries, 1500 metal and plastic drones are far more environmentally more intensive to build and recycle than a fireworks display is to build.
@StopFrackingA It's a sad day when activism behaves in a destructive way especially to culturally important works of art. This is not how you build support. Two wrongs don't make a right! Take the higher road.
@thejohnrobson Good thing you're not an MD, because diagnosis based on tweets is likely as deep as you manage to go to formulate your "opinion" pieces on. Check your ego, when you can't manage to accept criticism or fact check your own work!
@Shabadoowilliam@thejohnrobson He's entitled to his opinion, when it's published in a major media outlet even it it's an opinion piece or not it still fails to be accurate. I merely pointed out his article is heavily biased and fails to account for many economic factors. I do my homework just like he should.
@Shabadoowilliam@thejohnrobson Instead of having a discussion and actually validating his "opinions" which are rife with false narratives he illustrates he clearly is incapable of writing honest pieces. Failure to back your opinion with factual info is by all means poor communication.
@Shabadoowilliam@thejohnrobson It shows a persons intellectual abilities when they go to insults rather than discussion. Another reason the National is losing readership for supporting articles by poorly educated writers.
@thejohnrobson As someone who was unfortunate enough to have to participate in the KM expansion project I have read my share in regards to the oil industry in Canada. Your bias in regards to your article and your response illustrates you are not a journalist rather an advertorialist.
@elviralount@pfak@sandilou2u@CityofVancouver@VancouverPD@PtFry@greenestcity There's no such thing as silent fireworks, there are flares but they don't achieve any height. Fireworks work on a concussive charge that propels them into the air and another to detonate the shell and create the desired effect.
@thejohnrobson your article on gas prices is missing major pieces of why fuel in Canada is so high. Sensationalism journalism is why people are moving away from media sources, you need to do better.
@carsonting It's great that Vancouver is embracing events once again. The industry was the first to shut down and last to reopen. Looking forward to all sorts of things lighting up our city once again.
