Politics Even if my choice of city council didn’t win, I am happy with all of the city council people that were running

• Upvotes

I honestly feel like it was a good run and everyone did an amazing job. It was nice to see the team sport of Nevin and even if I think Greg would have been amazing because I know he has alot of experience in building project. I respect everyone vote.

Honestly like the council more than the mayor, I skip the mayor vote entirely.

Question Kamloops Results

29 Upvotes

So what does everyone think? Obviously happy with mayoral results but who saw Rob Bertrand coming off the top rope? He was a long shot on my list. Council seems like a good mix I guess. Happy Ritcey got on and some incumbents are there.

What does everyone else think?

Discussion Shout out to a hero

231 Upvotes

I just want to give a shout out to the guy with bright lights who drove ahead of the lunatic on the freeway from Kamloops flashing his lights and warning people of the driver going down the highway on the wrong side of the road. You were the only one doing it and you saved my life and countless others. If you hadn't warned me I would have been hit head on. I don't know if you will see this but your efforts are greatly appreciated, thank you for doing what you could to try and prevent the accident that occurred.

Politics Fair wages on municipal projects, Canadian Home Builders Association Municipal Candidate Forum.

Hey folks,

Castanet wrote an article about the CHBA forum that happened on Wednesday night. I was asked a great question, below is the link to the article and the excerpt containing my answer.

This is something I feel strongly about.

I have also added the links to Instagram videos expanding on my answer

https://www.castanetkamloops.net/news/Kamloops/634451/Kamloops-candidates-quizzed-on-housing-neighbourhood-opposition-at-forum

"Brian Andrews was asked to explain his previous assertion that paying higher union wages would not increase the overall cost of a construction project.

Andrews argued that workers paid a good living wage are more likely to stay on the job and take pride in their work, while those earning lower wages are more likely to leave for better-paying opportunities."

Don't forget to vote tomorrow.

Brian Andrews.

Thanks!

Question Sahali Mall Ebus transfer - fast food places nearby?

8 Upvotes

I have a family member who is transferring at the bus depot (office?) at Sahali Mall - they’ve got a 90-minute layover. I checked the list of stores in the mall, and there doesn’t seem to be much in the mall itself. Are there any fast food places within a 10-15 minute walking distance, i.e. Wendy’s, Subway, McDonald’s? Also, what’s the mall like - is it generally considered pretty safe to hang around for 90 minutes? I really miss the old direct bus service to Vancouver - no transfers!
