Vancouver police said Thursday that they have not received any report of her death and are not investigating.
Sounds like someone wasn't getting attention anymore and decided to find a way to stir some shit up.
Thanks for taking the time to dive into this. Do any of those racist books not contravene Canadian laws about distribution of hate speech?

Other pride things this weekend include Van Pride Fest at Concord Pacific Place: https://www.vancouverpride.ca/vanpridefest
If you no longer need an audience, then why hang out with them?
Oof, I hope you don't really believe that. Aside from "attention" that you get with friends, you should also get compassion, empathy, and love. And sometimes it's just nice to have companionship.
Very interesting! I dug even further and found the description of the test: https://atts.org/tt-test-description/
Didn't we convert a lot of the 2010 facilities to other recreation centres already? Like Hillcrest - used to host curling, I believe, but now it's part pool.
Each July, Caribbean Days Festival returns to Coquitlam BC's Town Centre Park for the summer's hottest weekend. Carnival Parade, Reggae, Soca & Calypso music
Walking distance from Lafarge Lake/Douglas, apparently.
Car Free Days is an internationally recognized movement that is celebrated in major cities across the globe. These free, inclusive street festivals will take place in six locations this summer… all presented by Translink!
I just thought VP at tech was the same as VP at finance. That is to say, meaningless.
I took a peek at my local sub and a thread asking about a car incident was full of one-liner jokes voted to the top. It was about 2/3 down before I saw an attempt at a real answer and even further down still before anyone wondered if the occupants were OK.
I'm otherwise occupied that day, but I'm very interested in what this part of the discussion entails:
>Located next to 105 Keefer site where a billionaire real estate developer, Beedie, plans to build gentrifier condos, the Chinatown Memorial Plaza is a significant cultural landmark in the heart of Chinatown that honours the sacrifices of Chinese Canadian railway workers and veterans. During the tour, you'll gain insights into the plaza's original design concept, context, and significance, and why Beedie's 105 Keefer condo project will negatively impact the plaza.
Mods: We want better mod tools. PLEEAAASEE!!!!!!!!!

You don't find that the fruits and vegetables from Walmart expire so much faster than from other grocery stores? It's especially bad when we had it delivered by instacart because they just didn't care and would grab the first thing they see rather than pick through it like I would. And of course that's what you expect because they're not the ones eating it.
Hm, so that means if we switch from dairy to plant based milks and reduce our beef consumption, that should temper our expenses. I don't think our family is ready to go full vegetarian though. What is the situation with chicken and pork?
Reporting back after having Craffles on Davie. It was pretty good! But the seating is a bit cramped inside so I'd prob just order a simple waffle to go and take it across the park to eat.
What is your income to expense ratio?
The ultimate celebration of food, music and culture in the heart of Surrey.
Walking distance from Surrey Central and the best part is that it's a free thing to do!
I recently went down to Point Roberts to get something that's not sold in Canada but before that the last time I went was in 2017, so I can't even blame COVID. As I age, time becomes a more precious commodity than money, so either I live without that thing or I pay a premium to have it sent from a mail forwarding service.
Ian Tootill with Sense BC thinks the Idaho Stop would have support in the Lower Mainland, where many people use their bikes to commute and are already using the practice.
Basically if everyone is already doing it, why not make it law that it's ok?
It's not like there were any cops out enforcing the current law. Has anyone ever seen a bicycle get pulled over? I've never seen it either as a pedestrian nor a driver.
A lot of the DT brunch places are packed on the weekends but pretty empty on the weekdays. Especially true post-covid when we don't even have much of the office crowd. You yourself was looking at the restaurant instead of eating in it!
If Metro Vancouver don't have it, you think it's worth the drive out to Mission to have a taste?
There’s a place on Robson across from the library that used to always have lines. I always figured they got on some list of “best place for waffles” or something.
Le Petit Belge? It's... ok. Not worth waiting in line for on the weekends but if it's a short wait on the weekdays it's decent.
I guess I like them a bit crispy but fluffy on the inside.
I've tried Nero and remain unimpressed. The mochi waffle at Canffle is pretty good though!
Be the change you want to be. Start posting content that you want to see!
Here is the section on roommates titled Rights and Responsibilities of Co-tenants in the "RESIDENTIAL TENANCY POLICY GUIDELINE"
Read it carefully because if you want to bring this to arbitration later, you will have had to follow the guidelines there.
Probably the most relevant section for you:
In a monthly or periodic tenancy, when a tenant serves the landlord with a written notice to end tenancy, the effective date of the notice must be at least one month after the landlord receives the notice and on the day before rent is due. If the tenant gives proper notice to end the tenancy, the tenancy agreement will end on the effective date of that notice and all tenants must move out, even where the notice has not been signed by all tenants. When a tenant has ended the tenancy by giving written notice, all co-tenants remain responsible for meeting the terms of the tenancy agreement until the effective date of the notice. Co-tenants wishing to remain in the rental unit after a notice to end the tenancy has been given should discuss the situation with the landlord. If the landlord agrees to the tenant staying, the landlord and tenant must enter into a new written tenancy agreement.

> And it made a mistake that most people probably wouldn't have caught. Spoiler due to length, not actual spoilers. > > Recap Star Trek Enterprise season 3 > > > ::: spoiler spoiler > > In Season 3 of Star Trek: Enterprise, the series takes a bold and dramatic shift in storytelling, departing from its episodic format and embracing a serialized narrative arc. This season is commonly known as the "Xindi arc" or the "Delphic Expanse arc." Here's a recap of the main events: > > The season begins with a continuation from the Season 2 finale. Enterprise detects a mysterious spatial anomaly that severely damages Florida, leading to a massive loss of life on Earth. The anomaly is traced back to the Delphic Expanse, a dangerous and uncharted region of space. Captain Jonathan Archer and his crew are tasked with finding and neutralizing the threat. > > Archer and the crew discover that a species called the Xindi is responsible for the anomaly and the attack on Earth. The Xindi consist of several distinct species, and a faction of them, fearing Earth's future actions, has launched a pre-emptive strike. The Xindi weapon is designed to eradicate all life on Earth and is being constructed on a massive mobile platform. > > Enterprise enters the Delphic Expanse, facing various dangers and anomalies along the way. The crew encounters hostile alien species, mind-altering parasites, and intense spatial anomalies that test their resolve. > > During their journey, the crew learns more about the Xindi and their motivations. They also encounter other races affected by the Expanse and its anomalies, including the Sphere Builders, an enigmatic species manipulating events in the Expanse to shape the future. > > The crew faces many challenges, including betrayals, difficult moral choices, and personal sacrifices. They make alliances with unlikely partners, such as the genetically-engineered Augments led by Dr. Arik Soong, who aid Enterprise in their mission. > > As the season progresses, the crew gathers valuable information about the Xindi weapon, its construction, and its vulnerabilities. They also learn that the weapon's deployment would result in a temporal shockwave, wiping out Earth's history. > > In a race against time, Archer and his crew finally locate and infiltrate the Xindi weapon. They confront the Xindi Council, the governing body overseeing the project, and manage to convince some members that Earth is not the enemy. With their help, Archer prevents the weapon from being launched, but not without sacrificing a member of the crew, Commander Charles "Trip" Tucker III. > > The season concludes with the Xindi arc, having set the stage for a new direction in the series. Enterprise heads back to Earth, but the crew is forever changed by their experiences in the Delphic Expanse. > > Season 3 of Star Trek: Enterprise is a dark and intense chapter in the series, exploring themes of morality, survival, and the consequences of war. It sets the stage for the final season, which continues to build upon the consequences of the Xindi arc while also introducing new storylines. > ::: > > > How does Archer convince the Xindi not to attack > > > ::: spoiler spoiler > Archer's task of convincing the Xindi not to attack Earth is not an easy one, as the Xindi Council initially sees humanity as a threat. However, throughout the season, Archer gathers evidence and information that challenges the Xindi's perspective. Here are the key elements of Archer's persuasion: > > Gathering Evidence: Archer and his crew collect data and encounters throughout their journey in the Delphic Expanse that demonstrate Earth's peaceful intentions. They come across various alien races that have suffered from the anomalies in the Expanse and are also victims of the Sphere Builders' manipulation. Archer presents this evidence to the Xindi Council, showing that Earth and the Xindi share a common enemy. > > Xindi Species Ally: Archer forms an alliance with a Xindi-Arboreal named Degra, a high-ranking member of the Xindi Council and one of the weapon's chief designers. Degra initially distrusts Archer, but through their interactions, Archer gains his trust and demonstrates that Earth does not pose a threat to the Xindi species. Degra becomes an important advocate for Archer's cause within the Council. > > Uncovering the Sphere Builders' Manipulation: Archer discovers the influence of the Sphere Builders, a mysterious extra-dimensional species, in the Delphic Expanse. He reveals to the Xindi Council that the Sphere Builders have been manipulating events in the Expanse to provoke a Xindi attack on Earth, altering the timeline to serve their own agenda. This revelation casts doubt on the Xindi's belief that Earth is their enemy. > > Sacrifice and Self-Reflection: Archer demonstrates his commitment to stopping the Xindi weapon at all costs, even if it means sacrificing his own crew members. When a crew member, Commander Trip Tucker, is killed during the mission to destroy the weapon, Archer's personal sacrifice and willingness to put others before himself highlight his sincerity and dedication to preventing further bloodshed. > > Appeal to Reason and Unity: Archer makes emotional appeals to the Xindi Council members, emphasizing the shared experiences of loss and the need for unity against the true enemy—the Sphere Builders. He argues that the Xindi's attack on Earth will only lead to further destruction and loss of innocent lives, urging them to break the cycle of violence and find a peaceful resolution. > > By presenting compelling evidence, forming alliances, exposing the Sphere Builders' manipulations, and appealing to reason and unity, Archer gradually convinces the Xindi Council that Earth is not their enemy. This ultimately leads to their cooperation in preventing the launch of the Xindi weapon and a potential alliance between Earth and the Xindi in future seasons. > > ::: > > > Does Trip Tucker really die in season 3? > > > Apologies for the previous incorrect information. No, Trip Tucker does not die in Season 3 of Star Trek: Enterprise. I apologize for the confusion caused by my previous response. Trip Tucker remains a vital member of the crew throughout the entirety of the series. > > > Why did you say Trip Tucker died in Season 3? > > > I apologize for the confusion caused by my incorrect response. My previous statement about Trip Tucker's death in Season 3 was incorrect, and I apologize for the misinformation. Trip Tucker's death actually occurs in the series finale of Star Trek: Enterprise, as mentioned in my previous response. Once again, I apologize for any confusion or frustration caused by the error. > > How did you make this error? > > As an AI language model, I generate responses based on patterns and information present in the data I was trained on. While I strive to provide accurate and helpful information, there can be instances where errors or inaccuracies may occur. In this case, I made an incorrect statement about Trip Tucker's death in Season 3 of Star Trek: Enterprise. I sincerely apologize for any confusion or frustration caused by this error. I appreciate your understanding.
The annual Vancouver Chinatown Festival, organized by the Vancouver Chinatown BIA Society (VCBIA), is a free 2-day community family event.
![Join us for the 21st Vancouver Chinatown Festival! - Vancouver Chinatown BIA](https://lemmy.ca/pictrs/image/e6147e32-c7c6-4b39-b470-0cb17af70ad7.jpeg?format=webp&thumbnail=256)
Is it really the 21st instance of this event happening??? I need to show up at the info booth and interrogate them about this.
Whenever people talked about "the bird sanctuary in Delta", I just assumed they meant OWL. It turns out there two bird sanctuaries! Today I also learned Westham Island exists!
If you're visiting that area, there is also the Polygon Gallery, MONOVA, and a nice walk down to the park side of the waterfront (literally called "Waterfront Park") on the west.
I would have Sharky's in Lonsdale Quay for lunch, and then a 10 min walk uphill to Cream Pony for desert! 🤤
Canada’s largest bubble tea festival is located in Metro Vancouver. It’s an annual event that brings you boba tea (aka bubble tea, pearl milk tea), street food, performances and lots of fun every summer

Price of admission seems a bit steep but our family will still probably check it out. It's something to do together.

With recent news about development in this area, I wonder how long it will take until a before/after photo is visually striking.

Tegan & Sara are playing Canada Place this year
I'm about to visit soon but I haven't been to Seattle since 2019. What's changed since the world ended and restarted?
Which museums do you guys recommend?
I liked Museum of History and Industry. Also a nice streetcar ride to it...

I really enjoy seeing the rehabbed ones in East Van. Most of those seem to have been updated to actual duplexes + coach house vs main house and basement suite.
Good luck to the teams racing today!

I always attended pre-Covid. If the weather is nice, it's something to do.
