Monday, General Hospital Emergency had patients lined up out the door. Yesterday, I tried the Pasqua. After 9 hours I finally saw a new surgeon and got some answers. While waiting, we talked to a crying senior who already waited 8 hrs after spending 10 hrs at Urgent Care day before. Damn Scott Moe!

How can anyone vote for the BC NDP and have a clean conscience? If the BC NDP is still a Social Democratic party then I'm the King of Portugal. #bcpoli

Can we stop pretending the Canadian Taxpayers Federation is a credible, non-partisan org now? Their press releases get an awful lot of play in news stories considering Binda, Gunn, etc

The BC Conservative Party announcing on Twitter that Carson Binda, director of CTF BC, is the party's candidate in Vancouver-Quilchena in the 2026 election

The US-owned National Post is urging Canadian Jews to take matters into their own hands to punish Avi Lewis for speaking up against the genocide in Gaza. They reference the Bible to bury alive and consume by fire. This is extremist hate. It needs to get called out. nationalpost.com/opinion/yoni...

Fewer than 1.3 million people in Sask. It's not about power for homes, but power for data centres & money for donors. We need the money to go to solar and wind power. "2,600 megawatts could power the equivalent of 2.6 million homes."

Tla'amin First Nation has shared this letter they were copied on from Israel Powell's descendants, to Powell River Mayor and Council. The Nation and Powell River's muni gov are collaborating on a possible name change, and this letter is a great gesture of support.

September 28, 2026

To Powell River Mayor and Council:

We are the grandchildren, and great-grandchildren of Helen Marjorie (Powell) Fisher. Helen Marjorie Fisher (HMF) was the granddaughter of Walker Powell, who was the brother of Israel Wood Powell. As you know, Israel Wood Powell was a doctor and leader, who was the first
superintendent of Indian Affairs in British Columbia. Although he had never lived or visited there, the river Powell River was named in Israel's honour, in recognition of his political influence and legacy.

Israel Wood Powell no longer has any direct descendants, and we are among his closest living relatives.

We understand that Tla’amin Nation has requested the town of Powell River change its name, out of respect for the harms done to their people by Israel Powell's policies, which included the creation of Residential Schools and banning of Indigenous cultural and spiritual practices. Specific to the region of the Tla’amin People, Powell's part in the delays of reserve allocation resulted in the loss of Tla’amin’s village site at tiskwat as it was granted to Robert Patterson Rithet.

We are supportive of changing the name of Powell River, given the above request by Tla’amin Nation, and also the lack of any historic family connection to the river and the surrounding lands.

Respectfully,

Elise Durante, great-granddaughter of Helen Marjorie Fisher

Marjorie Fisher, granddaughter of HMF

Brenda Buller Focht, granddaughter of HMF

Heather Fisher, great-granddaughter of HMF

Eric Focht, great-grandson of HMF

Meghan Buller, great-granddaughter of HMF

Leslie Campbell, great-grandson of HMF
