Called @Impark and was told to "wait there, a parking lot attendant would be by to help". Total B.S.! Finally admitted after multiple calls, and an hour of waiting, that no one was coming! Why was gate closed early??? Sign said M-F, 5am-11pm. #parkadenightmare
Hey @Impark! WTF!? Parked in one of your Vancouver lots last night that was SUPPOSED to be open until 11pm, but when we arrived to get our car at 9:10pm, gate was closed!! What a nightmare to get home to Maple Ridge and then get back this morning for car!!! (Thread)
Another full house for the 9th annual SD42 Trivia Night! Lots of snacks, socializing, and brain-busting trivia! Thanks to @KanakaSD42 for hosting, and thanks to all for coming out! Hope everyone had fun! @sd42news#Trivia See you next year!
It is with a heavy heart that we share the news of Ryp’s sudden passing late last week.
An incredibly special member of our Canucks family through our partnership with BC Guide Dogs. You and your legacy will not be forgotten ❤️
COPIED FROM JOE BECIGNEUL: THIS IS PROBABLY GOING TO TICK SOME PEOPLE OFF, AND I HOPE IT DOES. BUT I’M GOING TO KEEP ON SHARING IT AND SAYING IT. AND ONCE AGAIN, I AM NOT A SWIFTIE, BUT I AM A HUMAN BEING, A DAD AND, A MONSTROUS FOOTBALL FAN.
I am extremely disappointed in so many of you who think that "not being a fan" of someone means you're entitled to shit all over them.
I want to remind you of something.
Your children are watching you complain about Taylor Swift sitting at a football game, being happy, and cheering for a man she loves in what appears to be a very loving, respectful relationship.
Your Children are watching you judge a woman for literally just EXISTING and taking up space happily.
And you know what? Ms. Swift has won 324 awards? How many do you have?
She brought $5 BILLION dollars in consumer spending and boosted the U. S. economy so significantly, that leaders from other countries actually beg for her to play there?
Did you know that there are over 20 college courses about her skills as an artist, lyricist, and musician - including at places like Harvard, Stanford & UC Berkeley?
Did you know that Taylor Swift quietly donates mass amounts of money to local food banks in every city she performs in?
AND DID YOU KNOW …
That Taylor Swift was sexually assaulted by a radio DJ, and she got him fired? When he sued HER for over $3 million for defamation, she counter sued for a symbolic $1 in a court case that took 2 YEARS for her to win. And, she did that just to show women that fighting for what's right has no price tag & to never be silent in the face of oppression.
WELL IF YOU DON’T CARE BY NOW, YOU SHOULD.
Because your daughters, nieces, and your nephews are watching you run your mouth. And they are seeing the world hate a woman who does so much good, simply because she exists in their line of sight.
DO BETTER PEOPLE.
Teach your boys to respect women. Teach your girls that as women - they are ALLOWED to take up space.
Fix it. Become aware of your words. Because we all have the ability and the obligation to fight for the future of our children with simple moments. And we need to consciously choose to be better for them.

Deep down inside, all Trump supporters know this is true.
Some don’t care. Some are too proud to admit it. Some silently exited the GOP. Some think he would have done it during the next 4 years. Some refuse to talk about it. Some resort to violence.
But ALL know this ⬇️ is true.
