When officers approached the car, it quickly drove off. Police said the driver was operating the vehicle erratically; running red lights, weaving through traffic, and hitting speeds around 90 km/h in the downtown core.
Multiple police units, including the Tactical Support Team and the Canine Unit helped stop the vehicle near St. Michael Road and Pulberry Street.
The driver was arrested and officers discovered he had a quantity of methamphetamine in his possession.

The poll does not have a margin of error because online polls aren’t considered truly random samples.
“In terms of those who support the ban and those who have specific concerns regarding TikTok, it’s mostly among older Canadians who don’t use TikTok,” said Christian Bourque, executive vice-president of Leger.
It's almost as if the headline is clickbait or something. Bullshit article about a bullshit survey that can't even be called a survey.

By adding more transportation options maybe. 🤔

For me, a "normal" distance is ~8 km one way, but only because most of that is through a converted train corridor that's completely separated from vehicle traffic. I wouldn't like to do it if it was bicycle gutters all the way but I guess I wouldn't mind if it was the only option. There's also two rather substantial hills on my route which can really kick my butt if I missed some sleep or something.
Assuming 17 km total (~8.5 km one way), good infrastructure and minimal incline; totally doable. If you haven't ridden a bicycle in a long time, let yourself have extra time to take breaks and remember to bring snacks so you still have enough energy to work. If it's 17km one way, that is also totally doable but would require more physical preparation (and snacks). You can check incline on google maps; should show you a little graph when you set bicycle as your mode of transport.
If you're in North America or somewhere where cycling to work is considered super cray cray progressive; I would also suggest getting a brightly coloured cycling jacket, helmet and front/rear lights; though, might not be that important in some European cities like Amsterdam.
*Also remember to pack an extra tube and tire change tools with you unless you go tubeless of course.

Unfortunately, many media outlets do not understand the differences and serve only to further confuse their viewers on the topic. The only source I would trust regarding any indigenous topics is APTN. The linked video briefly describes the differences between elected and hereditary chiefs in Wet'suwet'en law, though this may be different with other tribal law systems.
I will only add that the elected chiefs, representing their respective reserves, have a conflict of interest since the funding they rely on to provide for their people comes from the government, which is obviously not on their side. For them, it was either endorse the pipeline or lose funding from the government, which would probably mean losing their land.
Also, this video talks about RCMP disinformation tactics using the media to misrepresent the people who's land is being taken away as criminals.

As long as there's no added sugar, the fruit juices should be fine. Not all sugars are equal, and fructose is a long chain sugar so it's more like a fuse then the dynamite (glucose).

"We understand the magnitude of the ongoing overdose crisis and the impact drug toxicity deaths have in communities throughout the province, including here in Vancouver," said Heard.
"While DULF’s actions were intended to reduce the harms caused by toxic illicit drug supply, [...] This group was knowingly illegally trafficking in drugs. As a result, we took action to stop it.

If I was looking for a keyboard I would buy this, if only because it doesn't have any RGB. Usually I would buy Corsair, but all of their keyboards have RGB these days and I hate that.

I truck pulled out in front of me today, and I side swiped it. Luckily I know how to fall, and most of the impact went into the upper right portion of my back but the truck confused my roll a bit and I ended up with some cuts and bruises on my ankle and knee and a small crack on the back of my helmet. The *one* day I decide not to wear jeans... My bike is still ridable but there's some weird vibrations when braking now. I hope the frames not bent... it probably is. The rear brake handle was bent too and I can't shift into the lowest gear. I might need a new bike and I *definitely* need a new helmet; not a big deal really, ICBC will cover it... I just feel lucky I grew out of the "I know how to fall so I don't need a helmet" phase. My knee is starting to swell up... tomorrow's going to be a lot of fun. Good thing the paramedics gave some of their ambulance drugs. I'm gunna miss that bike.
I went to this show in another city, and I highly recommend it. I would also suggest you watch the 2018 film *At Eternity's Gate* before attending. It will only add to the experience. They're situated south of Esquimalt Road and east of Catherine St. (355 Catherine St, Victoria, BC V9A 3S9).
