For the last 18 months, Ken Sim has focused on Sean Orr in a way we've rarely seen a mayor focus on an opposition councillor who isn't running for the top job And in 10 days, we'll know if it was a smart move of a two-term mayor, or an unforced error of a one-term mayor www.cbc.ca/listen/cbc-p...

From questioning death toll data and ignoring Palestinian voices, to perpetuating Islamophobic tropes and demonizing pro-Palestine protesters, the mainstream media has shown time and time again its bias. Here are some of the worst lowlights from their coverage: zeteo.com/p/is-this-fa...

Good morning. As reported by the WSJ, the US budget deficit climbed to nearly $2 trillion ($1.993 trillion) for the fiscal year ending September 30. What remains historically notable is that the US has continued to run a deficit of around 6% of GDP despite solid growth and a robust labor market.

I wrote this story in January, talking about how a lot of metrics were getting better. In that case Sean Orr was skeptical of my reporting, but I don't change my framework based on the politics of the day. It'll be worth noting how the VPD approaches this going forward.

Vancouver Police Department leadership and union leadership has criticized me, publicly and privately, for focusing too much on straight forward data analysis of crime rates. Several times. Not expecting an apology, but as a person who prefers data over anecdotes, I hope they'll continue this.

Today, the Vancouver Police Department issued a release saying "when it comes to the perception of public safety, the facts matter." In 2020, when the crime rate in the city was down, Vancouver Police Department Chief Adam Palmer argued that feelings mattered as much as facts.
