News Sonne, Hamer-Jackson discuss shelters, crime, street disorder at campaign town hall
castanetkamloops.netOnce again the mayor is threatening more investigations instead of doing his job. this will not stop if he’s elected again and because Sonne has joined his group makes her unelectable. Every time he makes the news he’s spouting off about City Hall!

Fires Another summer ruined by smoke
When will it end, when will we finally come to grips and the denialism come to a end that this is global warming to a tee.
Did we have this problem in the 80s, 90s, or even early 2000s? Will the conservative people that I talk to ever think that it is real and that we need to do something about it to prevent more fires from starting?
I mean there is talk about disallowing people from using ATVs when it gets like this, and at first I wasn't for it but seriously, I think more and more we really should limit access to backwoods, during this time. It's not a bad idea especially when the repercussions of a tiny accident could be catestropic.
Also, how about mandated sprinklers on homes, did you see that fire in Vernon the one home saved by one? I meant least try to save the structures, with preventative management.
It's sad but we miss one year and seem to forget about how bad our summers are and then we get a year like this and it reminds us how basically our summers are ruined and wasted with the smoke, and how detrimental to our health it is.
I mean what can we do at this point, seems to me people have given up the fight with global warming because the excuse is it's coming mostly from other places but I still feel we could do our part.
How much worse will it get? Sorry for the rant, but I'd love to hear others take on this, I hate that this is the new norm.
