SWIM ON:

  • Last week's UnSpun also looked long and hard at the goings-on at Vancouver City Hall, drug decriminalization, and VERY strongly-worded letters.
  • Jody Vance mentions her out-of-left-field idea to get people back engaged and following COVID-19 updates - because hell, what worked in April obviously isn't working now.
  • This week's #BCPOLI Hotstove talked the new (interim) Leader of the Official Opposition, COVID fatigue, amd much more.
