Vancouver went down for Friday, October 4th, 2024.
The city of Surrey has failed in its court action to get a Hells Angels clubhouse shut
down.

violating bylaws.

place.
No one actually lives there.
In the news, a young woman has been arrested in the stabbing death of a 37-year-old man
in East Vancouver.
It happened late Wednesday night or early Thursday morning at a home near Kingsway and
Boundary Road.
Police believe the victim and the suspect knew each other.
The BC Conservatives promised to end the ICBC monopoly.
Leader John Rostad says a government under his party would introduce fair and competitive
options by providing residents with the choice of insurance products.

Leader David E.B. vows to have a dedicated mental health counselor in every school.
