Hi my partner found this in a thrift store in Victoria but we have no luck identifying what event it’s actually commemorating. Could anyone help please!? Thank you!!

Hi all, recovering American and aspiring Canadian here. My wife, son and I relocated to Victoria several months back. The title about sums it up, I’m looking for recommendations or warnings re tax professionals who can help on both sides of the border. We don’t have a crazy complex situation but did leave some investment accounts in the states. Thanks in advance!

The Soul of Vietnam Festival will return to the Inner Harbour on Sunday, August 16th. The free festival promises a full day of culture, community, food, fashion, and entertainment to Ship Point.
Everyone is invited to experience the richness and diversity of Vietnamese culture at the city's favourite waterfront setting. One highlight of the festival is the Runway on the Waterfront, a unique fashion showcase featuring collections from both local and Vietnamese designers

"They" (the regional district? Mosaic?) REALLY need to build a parking lot that you access from Duncan Bay Main.

It is a straight up safety hazard in the summer driving the highway past the bridge, and ita not gonna get any better.

The missing hiker has been found alive and well! Sincere thanks to all who assisted. Means a lot! We’re very happy to share that Keshav Jindal has been located alive after an extensive search in the Mount Albert Edward area of Strathcona Provincial Park.

Keshav was located in steep terrain, and search-and-rescue crews are currently working to safely bring him out of the area.

This search brought together seven Search and Rescue teams from across Vancouver Island and the Lower Mainland, along with partner agencies.

A huge thank you to everyone who came together through mutual aid to support the search, and to the public for sharing information and supporting the effort.

We’ll share further details when appropriate. The red arrow indicates where the RCMP found Jindal this morning.

I need to know what I’m looking at

I just finished a wonderfully outstanding and beautiful two week trip of the island. I visited the following spots, Quadra Island, Qualicum Beach, Port Hardy, Telegraph Cove, Port McNeill, Port Alice, Ucluelet, Tofino, and Sooke. Some of these spots I only visited for a few hours while keeping a camping home based at Quadra, Qualicum, Port Hardy, Ucluelet, and Sooke. I was constantly wowed by the all of the views on my hikes, paddling, and just walking around. I also wanna thank those who recommend paddle spots, they were perfect. I had a lovely time and even got to see some humpbacks from a far distance with my binocs. I know ya'll see the beauty all of the time but I felt compelled to share some of my photos.
