Last June: WC hosting cost pegged at $532M–$624M. April: "we'll release the full number soon." Yesterday: now it's "before the games begin." The first match is June 12. We're hiding the bill until 30 days out? British Columbians deserve the number now, Premier. #bcpoli

Big Whitecaps summit today. Premier, MLS, Montagliani, City, three First Nations all in the room. And yesterday @Dave_Eby walked out and said the meeting "is not going to resolve this entire issue." Why are we managing expectations DOWN before the door is even open? Walk in to win it. #VWFC #SaveTheCaps

When the CEO of Canada's largest oil & gas company by revenue tells investors the industrial carbon tax is uniquely Canadian and pushing capital offshore — and the new IEA roadmap says start producing, not stop — the policy isn't decarbonizing anything. It's just relocating the barrels and the jobs.

"Cenovus Energy CEO told a conference outside Montreal that no other oil-producing nation maintains a similar [carbon] tax, so rather than its intended purpose of incentivizing decarbonization, it incents industry to invest outside of Canada." nationalpost.com/opinion/easy-f…

Genuine question for @rparmar_BC: If your Heritage Conservation Act reforms are sound, why does reading the proposed changes require signing an NDA — one that UBCM, ICBA, UDI, the Mining Association of BC, and AME all refused to sign? Good policy doesn't fear sunlight. #bcpoli

CCTV footage has emerged from the serious collision on Scott Road in Surrey involving a motorcycle that was left hanging from a traffic light pole. Despite the severity of the crash, the motorcyclist survived and sustained serious but non-life-threatening injuries.
Sarbraj Singh Kahlon@sarbrajskahlon

Horrific scene near the Surrey/Delta border on Scott Rd following a collision b/w a vehicle & a motorcycle. Delta Pd say the motorcycle rider sustained serious but non-life-threatening injuries & was transported to hospital. The driver of the vehicle was not injured. Scott Rd b/w 72 & 70 Ave is currently closed.

@MadAboutPaper This needs a Heritage Minute. Soft piano. Slow zoom on the signal post. Voiceover: "On May 9, 2026, at the corner of Scott Road and Scottsdale Mall, physics took a personal day."

@TomZillich Glad the rider's okay. Now — petition to leave the bike up there permanently. Bronze it in place. New Surrey landmark. Tourists driving up from Bellingham just to see it. Heritage designation by 2030.

Two sports tenants, one landlord. The @WhitecapsFC are negotiating BC Place lease terms that may force relocation. The BC Sports Hall of Fame just got ordered out of BC Place for two months with zero compensation. Both stories trace back to PavCo, the Crown corp that runs the stadium. The pattern is the file. @Dave_Eby

Another consequence of FIFA coming to Vancouver. The BC Sports Hall of Fame has to vacate BC Place during the World Cup. Frustrating. These places hold local stories and history. The irony of displacing a local sports museum for a global sports event is hard to miss.
CityNews Vancouver@CityNewsVAN

The BC Sports Hall of Fame says it has been ordered to shut down for two months to make room for an international media centre during the 2026 FIFA World Cup, and it won’t be getting any compensation. vancouver.citynews.ca/2026/05/07/van…

Drove past the Surrey-Langley SkyTrain construction this morning. Guideway columns going up along Fraser Highway. All 8 stations now under construction. $5.7B in. Late 2029 opening. About time. Reminder: our Fraser Highway businesses are paying the disruption tax for the rest of us. Stop in. Buy a coffee. Order takeout. They're the ones grinding through this so 2030 Langley is better connected than 2026 Langley.

@aftncanada $515 is the headline, but honestly the designs are the real crime. Saw the full series in an advert and they're horrific across the board. Bracing myself for what they cook up for Vancouver and Toronto — the bar is on the floor.

FIFA have launched limited edition World Cup city heritage jerseys ahead of next month's tournament with scannable digital content. Seattle, Kansas City, Boston, NY/NJ the four cities announced today. The cost? $515 CAD. FIVE HUNDRED AND FIFTEEN FUCKING DOLLARS. For a jersey.

Same thing's about to play out at @BCPlace. Vancouver and Toronto are going to convert a lot of North American sports fans who've never experienced what a packed soccer stadium actually sounds like. The "worst stadium" takes haven't aged well before, and they won't this time either.

@JohnRustad4BC BC lost 19,000 jobs in March — worst in the country — while Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Nova Scotia all grew. April adds another 4,300 lost. "Tariffs and Trump" hits every province the same way. So what is Victoria doing differently? @Dave_Eby @ravikahlon

@BenSteiner00 Brutal timing. 35 days out and Canada's best player goes down with a hamstring strain — again. The medical staff at @FCBayern and @CanadaSoccerEN need to get this absolutely right. No rushing him back. #CanMNT needs Davies healthy, not just present.

Terrible news for the #CanMNT and Alphonso Davies, who is out for several weeks with another hamstring strain. Just a few weeks after he got back into action — 35 days from the World Cup. Nightmare scenario.
FC Bayern München@FCBayern

Alphonso Davies hat sich im Halbfinal-Rückspiel gegen PSG eine Muskelverletzung im hinteren linken Oberschenkel zugezogen und fällt damit mehrere Wochen aus. Wir wünschen dir eine gute und schnelle Genesung, Phonzy ❤️‍🩹 🔗 fcbayern.com/MqbaP

.@rparmar_BC suggests reforms on Heritage Conservation Act may not come this fall. Comes after @UBCM @udibc @ICBA Ass of BC Mineral Explortation and Mining Association of BC saying they refuse to sign NDAs to do consultation b/c disagree with direction and want freedom to speak.

Schuster confirmed three things on Wednesday that fans needed to hear: 30+ "serious" relocation bids reviewed, none saw the club as viable in the current BC Place tenant model, and First Nations conversations are part of the path forward. Most honest update we've had in 18 months. #VWFC #SaveTheCaps

@JulianCardillo Spot on, @JulianCardillo. White's been a Whitecaps mainstay since 2021 — quiet finisher, relentless work rate, zero ego. 85 MLS goals at 30 is a real CV. Eight caps doesn't begin to reflect what he's actually produced. #VWFC

At age 30, Brian White has scored 85 goals in MLS. That’s 16 shy of Taylor Twellman’s all-time regular season total. Feels like a failure that he’s only been capped eight times for the U.S. #MLS #USMNT #VWFC
