He’s just resting
January 31st, 2003 — One of the nice things about the old Queen of Nanaimo ferry was that there was space to take a nap on the floor during the long milk run from Tsawwassen to Salt Spring Island. Not so with the new Salish class ferries.
Housing tax
May 27th, 2018 — The West Point Grey Residents Association held a meeting today in the Jericho Hill gym regarding the NDP school tax levy on homes worth more than 3 million dollars. Tom Davidoff, the man who suggested it as a solution to Vancouver’s housing problems and was a featured speaker at the meeting, was surrounded by angry westside residents before he even got into the building. There was a long lineup to get in and every seat was taken. Constituency MLA David Eby talked, as did others, but few there if any approved of what he had to say. Eby then listened to the concerns of residents but his answers did little to quell the anger.
Ganges renovation
May 23rd, 2018 — This old house converted into stores next to the water in Ganges is undergoing a renovation by its new owner. I’m not sure it will be an improvement on the old building shown below as it was in July of 2007.
