Sources: FIFA wanted level 4 motorcade escort for its president while in Vancouver (ability to go through traffic lights). That’s 1 level below the pope - but on par with 🇺🇸 president - and higher than 🇨🇦 PM. The request was denied. #bcpoli @globalnews.ca

BC’s ports remain (largely) open to criminals. City of Delta report says CBSA checks less than 1% of container traffic coming through regional ports. I pressed Transport Minister Steven MacKinnon on this. #cdnpoli

ICYMI: Why is pedophile Randall Hopley out again months after being re-arrested? As I reported last night, VPD recommended charge of escaping lawful custody—but BC Prosecution Service didn’t approve it. In the eyes of the law, it’s as if the May arrest never happened. #bcpoli

When I worked at CKNW we were told to ‘retire’ the classic, black microphone flags on the right (around since at least the 1970s). But with NW moving to AM 730, the black ones - which don’t advertise a frequency - are on-brand again 🤣

How Metro Vancouver works, folks: Delta Mayor George Harvie isn’t at work this month. He’s in Hawaii on vacation. But there he is (in pink) zooming into this morning’s meeting (of less than two hours) so he can collect his $525. #bcpoli

NO TRAIN for Xmas. Park Board says it’s committed to beloved attraction’s future, but the fleet needs significant investment and/or electrification. Interesting fact: The green engine was bought second hand in 1964 and runs off a 1961 Ford tractor motor. More on Global BC tonight. #vanpoli
