For clarity, the event taking place this Saturday under the VIC Fest name is not affiliated with the original VIC Fest founders, board, or organizing team established in 2011. My intention in sharing this is to provide clarity around the origins + legacy of the original VIC Fest.

If you have been touched in your life with Cancer, then you know how important this journey is. @TourdeRock Gala Dinner and fundraiser. 🤍🚴

[Misty Olsen @MistyOlsenBC]

It was an honour to be a part of this very special signing ceremony. We must take the time to listen, to learn and to make a commitment to do better. This is a big step in building the foundation for which we will grow our relationship with the Songhees Nation. 💚

@JustinTrudeau Hiring Canadian workers and youth should always have priory over foreign workers IMO.

@renomate @cityofcolwood In a beautiful location! ☀️

@ianincolwood Did you get a t-shirt? 😆

[Misty Olsen @MistyOlsenBC]

@ianincolwood Thanks @ianincolwood 😁 This is a prime example of democracy in action. It all began because a resident contacted me to express concerns about the use of harmful pesticides and that action needed to be taken to protect our health and the natural environment and …here we are 🌿

[Misty Olsen @MistyOlsenBC]

The introduction of the pesticide bylaw has been a much anticipated development and I’m pleased that it has received unanimous support. Colwood is leading the way in the Westshore as environmental stewards and I encourage my neighbours in Langford to follow suit. 🐝

@CindyPAndrew1 @renomate @cityofcolwood @DouginColwood @deanforcolwood @Cynthiaday61 @ianincolwood @GordieLogan @RobbieCMartin Big day! See you there.

@Millington90440 @TrilliumComm @JordisonKim A group of people who are often overlooked and underrepresented in our society. It's time for us to recognize their value, listen to their voices, and take action to address their concerns. 🤍

[Misty Olsen @MistyOlsenBC]

Tea time engagement session with the residents at @TrilliumComm West Shore included; Open, honest dialogue and resident led Q&A. Fun afternoon! #cityofcolwood

2023 CRD Forum of All Councils. “When the tide is out, the table is set” First Nations speak to food sustainability and concern for harvesting the shorelines. #reconciliaction a new take away for me. Action is needed now to preserve the culture of First Nations people.

Dear The Rest of Canada,
If you missed your chance to hate us for our cherry blossoms, you can now despise us for our lilacs.
Sincerely,
