After sitting on an @AirCanada flight for 40 minutes, 20 min after pushing back and moving to taxi, the Captain says @yvrairport cannot handle any more flights for 2.5 hours. We were told we’d go back to gate and figure out what to do next. @CBCNews @CBC @Canada #EpicFail

Going to Blue Sky

Yet another #yvrfail 25 minutes at gate after landing and counting as they try to connect the sky bridge. On top of a “pre-take off” delay to get here because they were t able to handle the originally scheduled flight time. I guess 7:15 am is peak time at this local airport.

@CityofVancouver So why were streets blocked off at 7 AM when you posted saying 8 AM? Every year it's the same. Hornby closed at Robson, Burrard closed at Robson, West Georgia closed in the same area & many others. Please send out ACCURATE information for those who need access before 8.

Some honest assessment of Ukraine war.

The departure of two more “moderate” UCP Cabinet Ministers confirms what was already clear.

The PC faction of the UCP is gone.

The UCP is Danielle Smith’s Wildrose Party.

@theshift_sports @JullyBlack It’s was well done. @WilliamShatner did it in 2011 in his NFB video when accepting his Governor General’s award. https://t.co/q8WLxSSW9N

@Praxeas I’ve never been comfortable with the applause after a postlude and the occasional applause after sermons. I think it reinforces a the pay-per view transactional perception of church.

When the planes arrive on time, it seems @yvrairport can’t get the ramp crews in position on time. Net result. 25 minutes on the tarmac waiting. #airportdelays

@scottagunn Remember, the Speaker doesn’t have to be a member of the House.

@revlucymeg I would dislike Bishop Curry being referred to as Mikey just as much as I find it distasteful to refer to the former Bishop of Rome in a similar manner. We may not agree with his policies or practices but we claim to respect the dignity of every human being.

#RockinEve has really gone from bad to worse. Time to give it a proper burial.

@yvrairport and @WestJet keeping us sitting at the gate for over an hour after making us hurry to board. #mickeymouse #provincial

Why are all the Expo line sky trains delayed? It’s noon. Snow ended yesterday morning #Vancouver #Snowmageddon

@BridgieCasey I am so sorry to hear that. I’ve had to decrease to 4 Americanos a morning and life is just not the same.
