COMMENTARY: Let’s say it plainly: There has never been a president as corrupt as Donald Trump.

There is no close second in our history.

“If the company pays $25 an hour, the worker might only get $10 to $15,” said Gurcharan Brar, a long-time farmworker with more than two decades of experience. “The contractor keeps the rest.”

The BC Policy Solutions report highlights cases of verbal abuse, sexual harassment, and retaliation against those who speak out. Frontline interviews suggest these fears are grounded in everyday reality, affecting anyone without stable status.

I emailed FIFA two questions about @BCSportsHall and never got a response.

"This strikes me as odd only because if a Canadian citizen died in Ukraine, would you be asking Moscow to investigate?" -- Scott McLean questions Anita Anand on Israel leading the investigation into the death of a Canadian killed by an Israeli airstrike in Lebanon

Spencer, I wasn’t going to do this. It’s not worth my time. Seriously. But your dinner check the other night was $682 . Hope that helps. Don’t be a dick to the service staff where you stay. I’ve got your breakfast order, and the list of made up food allergies you claim. You’re just lying; stop. @TMZ

The Vancouver Canucks have missed the playoffs 16 times since the NHL introduced the draft lottery in 1995

They haven’t jumped up a single time 😬

She was murdered by a Trump supporter and republicans refuse to acknowledge what happened to her. They wanna talk all about the violent left but never acknowledge the fact that one of their own killed a US representative and her husband.

Hey @VancityReynolds I’ve got an idea. Since you’ve got all this experience as a football club owner now… buy the club in your own backyard and keep them in Vancouver. @WhitecapsFC

On mere suspicion of his wife having an affiair, he slit throats of his twin daughters. But left his son alive.

How misogyny kills women.

Kash Patel’s colleagues are alarmed by what they say is erratic behavior and excessive drinking, Sarah Fitzpatrick reports. More than two dozen people she spoke with described his management failures and conduct that could harm national security. https://t.co/3dz8oweYBI

TMZ DC ran into Sen. Lindsey Graham, who was on his way into his office Monday at the Russell Building, and asked about the now-famous photo of him in Fantasyland at Disney World clutching a bubble wand during his 2-week Spring Break.

The Senator was not in a chatty mood. 😬

The water taxi wait at Horeseshoe Bay as would-be Langdale ferry passengers say the communication from @BCFerries has been terrible.

BC Ferries has grown its communications dept. under current CEO from 2 people to 6 — but @GlobalBC told no one available for interview.

[Jordan Armstrong @jarmstrongbc]

Reporter @jungangela_ called @BCFerries Board Chair Joy MacPhail - but MacPhail said she was on vacation and ended the call.

No one associated with @BCFerries would do an interview Sunday.

Queen of Surrey lasted 40 min in service after annual refit — then broke down.

Brady Tkachuk & Linus Ullmark were both requested to speak with the media ahead of tonight’s game vs Buffalo but were not available according to the #Sens.

[Trevor Beggs @TrevBeggs]

Guess last Wednesday will go down as my final in-person practice of the season.

Despite everything that happened, I do appreciate the #Canucks approving take your mom to work day. My family is the reason I became obsessed with the Canucks.
