“I am a Canadian, free to speak without fear, free to worship in my own way, free to stand for what I think right, free to oppose what I believe wrong, or free to choose those who shall govern my country. This heritage of freedom I pledge to uphold for myself and all mankind.” ~~ John G. Diefenbaker

DAY SEVEN the Top Ten most read post from the week ending Saturday March 16th


And here we are back to Day Seven already, and after many posts this week, here are the seven most read during the last seven days.  From Hospital food, to a strong (or lack thereof) economy, the resource industry, wild salmon and more ... you’ll find it all here.

Check them out ... see if you missed reading any of them ... or maybe you’ll just want to have another look.  First up ... the 10th most read post of the week:


#10  DAN ALBAS ... Do you believe that Ms. Wilson Raybould should have the opportunity to appear before the Justice Committee for a second time to respond to these recent statements?


#9  FORSETH ... Damn right they don’t us to know, because those resource workers, and their spouses and friends, wouldn’t be headed to cash registers with products from these phony philanthropists / protectors of the environment


#8  FELDSTED ... Governments continue to spend irresponsibly, driven by a fear that reduced spending will result in a loss of votes and political power


#7 ... Many may question the value of public input into such things as the Select Standing Committee on Finance and Government Services ... not so MLA Doug Clovechok


#6  DOUG CLOVECHOK:  I support the preservation of quality farm and ranchland. But we should not have a minority government stripping the rights of private landowners no matter what the circumstances


#5  ADAM OLSEN ... This is the culmination of a process that began last summer for the BC Wild Salmon Advisory Council


#4  CANADA’S ENERGY CITIZENS ...  We wanted to show you a headline from this morning


#3  CEC ... We know the naysayers will continue to pull out all the tools they can to pursue their goal of “death by delay” of any major resource project or investment in BC


#2  FORSETH ... I’m not sure having the only locally prepared menu selections in the 55 Interior Health facilities should be limited to preparing sandwiches, vegetables, salads, and breakfast items


And hanging in at the number 1 spot is this post from last Friday ... March 8th:

#1  FORSETH ... All I can say is if that’s how maintaining a strong economy, and putting people first works, I’m not so sure those of us living in BC will be able to afford much more of it

And that’s it for this week ... we’ll be back with a fresh look at how BC and Canadian politics affect us – and why.

Kamloops woman’s cancer test cancelled due to Interior Health mandates for OB/GYNs (iNFO News)

A Kamloops woman’s cancer screening appointment was considered urgent by her doctors and scheduled within weeks, but it was postponed indefinitely when Interior Health ordered her gynecologist take that day’s on-call shift. Troylana Manson now waits with the mystery of whether she might have cancer amid a staffing crisis for women’s health care specialists in Kamloops. “I was happy to have that appointment in December so we could rule this out, but now it’s thrown in the air again. People in Kamloops, certainly people in positions of power, need to realize what Interior Health is doing”  ... CLICK HERE for the full story

One arrested at OneBC event at UVic that draws protesters (Times Colonist)

A would-be speaker was arrested under the Trespass Act after she arrived at the University of Victoria on Tuesday for an event intended to shed light on what the OneBC political party refers to as the “reconciliation industry.”  An officer at the scene initially said two people were arrested, after protesters scuffled with those trying to hold the unsanctioned event. Saanich police issued a statement later Tuesday saying only one person was arrested.  Police did not name the person who was arrested, but OneBC leader Dallas Brodie said it was Frances Widdowson, who was later released ...

Eby misled British Columbians about Cowichan appeal; court records show no stay was ever filed; Conservative leader John Rustad

Conservative Opposition Leader John Rustad says Premier David Eby has been caught misleading the public after court records confirmed the government never filed the stay of the Cowichan ruling the NDP repeatedly promised. “For four months, the Premier said the stay was being sought, the Attorney General claimed the application was underway, and the government told British Columbians that action was coming. The court record shows they did nothing,” said Rustad. “Not one stay, not one application, not one motion. They made promises to homeowners while the registry sat empty.” Premier Eby first promised on August 11, 2025, that a stay would be filed, then again in October, and twice in Question Period when pressured by the opposition. A review of court documents on Friday revealed that no stay has been filed. Rustad said the stay was the single legal measure that could pause the ruling and protect homeowners in Richmond and across the province while appeals move forward. By...
