Living in Newfoundland for almost 7 years now I’ve forgotten how unfriendly everywhere else can be. First encounter trying to help a family in the Toronto airport gets met with unfriendly responses. Happy and proud to be a Newfoundlander now. #Newfoundland #kindness

[RCMP Newfoundland and Labrador @RCMPNL]

⚠️The man has been arrested. RCMP thanks the public for the tips received. Residents can resume normal activities and can expect to see an increased police presence in the area as the investigation continues. There is no further risk to public safety. ⚠️

@jedijudd The spewing hate wasn’t directed at you, just in general. While it’s great to have different opinions, when it’s trying to villainize a group of people based on ignorance it’s not helpful to anyone.

[Jolene Grimes @JGrimesVOCM]

@jedijudd No I don’t. Also, there’s also no propaganda going around trying to change peoples gender. That’s another ridiculously ignorant idea. How about people just worry about themselves (stop spewing hate) and let other people live their own authentic lives.

2 dogs on the loose running around Paradise on Topsail Road near the off-ramp to the TCH Southbound #nltraffic

[Jolene Grimes @JGrimesVOCM]

@juanitamercer_ How am I just seeing this!? Thanks so much, that’s very sweet. I blame my mom brain and lack of sleep 🥴.

[Jolene Grimes @JGrimesVOCM]

There’s a large truck with long flat bed that is stuck and blocking both lanes westbound on the Kenmount Road extension at the roundabout at Karwood Drive. No one is getting through heading into Paradise. @VOCMNEWS #nltraffic

[Jolene Grimes @JGrimesVOCM]

@MHoldenNL I’m also happy to contribute for new skates. Poor girl has been through enough.

[Jolene Grimes @JGrimesVOCM]

Imagine being 11-years-old, fleeing a war torn country and the only thing you brought through multiple countries gets stolen. Sin, I hope she gets it back.

[Michael Holden @MHoldenNL]

Ukrainian family’s car was broken into & daughter's figure skates, the only thing she brought to NL from Ukraine, were stolen. She is so upset. If you see skates/ bag anywhere, please pm. Georgetown area.
