The location is a mess. But procedure should not be to close it and then look for replacement site. Get a replacement site first. Need continues.

[Patti Bacchus @pattibacchus]

It’s mind boggling. @LisaDominato and @rebeccaleebligh, you know better. Please do the right thing. Have courage and stand up for what is right. #vanpoli

Congratulated for insightful action by Joe Sulmona nd I reserving right-of-way for Canada Line when YVR planning terminal expansion. At the time I was planning (RAV study - becomes Canada Line) 2 stations at YVR - would have given us 14 stations.

[Ken Denike @ubcken]

Transit alert: Canada Line - what bothered me about the Canada Line was we ended up with 13 stations. Now, with the new Capstan Station in Richmond, 14 stations.

[Ken Denike @ubcken]

Albeit, location of Capstan Station doesn't make much sense. The station should have gone out to YVR for the people employed in freight forwarding and employees working east of terminal. But developers paying the costs of new station so what choice?

Variants should be named after politicians who undermine public health.

Do we have a problem? The rate of Variants of Concern clocked by BC_CDC shows rate of occurrence in specimen for Delta (India(B.1.617.2)) has just exceeded 30% in B.C. with 30% during July 04 – July 10. This is duplicating rates for first wave of Covid-19 in BC.

Need balance - priority for public safety and frontline staff.

Are new cases signalling cause for concern or merely cases following transmission of cases from Whistler of. Brazil variant with inception interval?

There's been an uptick in both daily infection rates and positivity rates for people getting tested in #NorthVan this week. https://t.co/7Da7ioBCR3 via @NorthShoreNews #WestVan

Note the second vaccination not prioritized by age or essential health priority. What happened to 'old age' 'health service' first?

[Bob Mackin @bobmackin]

It’s not too late, @adriandix, to admit the ImmunizeBC system is far from 100% reliable. Either fix it ASAP or be transparent about why it is the way it is, and tell everyone to double-check. #bcpoli

RIP Uncle Dave.

[Ken Denike @ubcken]

I argue much of the blame stems from Public Health Emergency of International Concern (PHEIC) declaration 30 Jan 2020 not followed. Health authorities including B.C. and Canada waited for WHO to announce Pandemic, mid- March , thus allowing the virus to spread out of control.
