  • Anti-tariff ad, Whale watching boats, & Farmer's crops destroyed in seconds

    Anti-tariff ad, Whale watching boats, & Farmer's crops destroyed in seconds
    Oct 24 2025
    Ontario Premier Doug Ford says the province will pause its anti-tariff television ad campaign in the United States on Monday so that Canada-U.S. trade talks can restart. On Thursday afternoon, one of our whale-watching vessels undertook a decisive maneuver, in accordance with safety procedures, to avoid a humpback whale that had suddenly and unexpectedly surfaced directly in the vessel’s path while transiting near Vancouver. We were not actively viewing the whale, so this was a surprise encounter. Imagine spending a full year tending to your crops — only to have someone destroy them in a few minutes for fun. That’s exactly what happened to long-time farmer Rob Rindt, general manager of Western Turf Farms in Abbotsford. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

    Oct 24 2025
    The BC wine industry has faced a tough couple of years — from devastating winter damage that wiped out much of the 2024 grape crop, to ongoing supply challenges caused by the BCGEU strike. Now, small and mid-sized wineries say they’re ready to step up and keep local restaurants and consumers supplied with BC wine — but a government policy is standing in the way.
