Peter Santenello is a Youtuber that travels the US filming, without judgement, everyday citizens and situations. His latest video is "Los Angeles - What It's Really Like Now". Scroll to 10.29 for the No Chance Foundation and listen to the worker. The unhoused in LA have everything given to them, free food, free clothing, and if they want it, free shelter. But they don't want the shelter because they have to follow the rules. They rather live on the street. Sound familiar? What really galls me is that the judge wants PG to provide housing with daytime activities. If I want daytime activities I have to find it and in most instances, pay for it myself. Most activities have a cost. It's bad enough we have to provide food, clothing, housing, and dope but our judicial system also expects us to provide entertainment for the unhoused as well. I am so sick and tired of this charade.

Two bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a wine room too much for this old bird to buy a ticket. It seems that developers are building "cheap luxury" at high prices to recoup some of the exorbitant land prices they probably paid.

As an older individual, I find this creepy. I can see how the dolls interactions, even employing "well-being screeners" can be open to manipulation. No sheep for me.

At the end of the day we don't need security personnel or top heavy health authorities with numerous questionable departments and highly paid vice presidents. We need front line health care professionals including nurses, nurse practitioners, and doctors. We need our hospitals departments open 24/7. We don't need patients being shoveled from one hospital to another in another community; It's like the Ministry of Health is playing hot potato with our lives. I am sick and tired of the provincial government giving lip service about all their successes; successes we have yet to see on the front lines. Talk is cheap. Lets see some action including laying off redundant upper level health authority staff in order to fund the changes we so desperately need.

Judge Simpson needs to give his head a shake if he believes anything from this woman's mouth. The chances of her paying back the monies due from the default civil judgement against her are slim to none. This is not her first time defrauding her employers. At least 33 times she stole monies what was not due her. Wouldn't we all like a new car on someone else's dime. How about binging on subscription boxes to make you feel good. But wait, most of us are depressed because we cannot afford such luxuries and our lives are sadly unfulfilled just scraping to get by legally. A much longer jail sentence was and is warranted in cases such as this.

Enough already! There can't be anything more to burn down there! There are a number of housing units available for Prince George homeless. Where is the judge who allowed this mess to continue? Right, doesn't live in Prince George or anywhere near moccasin flats.

Looks like he's got his shorts in a knot or he's got a lot of stolen loot stuffed down his pants.

I am so sorry to hear the ancient forest is being commercialized. Call me a naysayer but I cannot see where this project will build stronger relationships. Come on, gift shops and overnight accommodations? This was a beautiful, pristine piece of local heaven that has now been sold to tourism for the almighty $$$.

My uncle was a young soldier involved in the liberation of Holland in WWII. My late mother was watching CBC on the 50th anniversary of the end of the war when they where showing old grainy black and white video taken at the end of the war. The camera panned to Canadian soldiers when much to her surprise she saw her brother, rifle in hand, guarding POWs. When he returned to Canada, his hands shook so much my grandmother wondered what was wrong with her son. Obviously now we would say PTSD but there was no such diagnosis back then. Like many who survived the horrors of war, he never spoke about his experiences and took them to his grave. Unfortunately it appears the world never did learn from previous world war attrocities.

I've heard these lawyers are working pro bono. In this day and age I find this hard to believe. I wonder just how much our provincial government is actually paying them on the pretext of consultations?
