✅ @MikeSmythNews’s 🔥 question of the day

Former PM Kim Campbell is apologizing this morning for saying she’s “rooting” for Hurricane Dorian to hit Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort.

Was Campbell right to apologize?

Yes, it was distasteful.

No, it was just a joke!

"Significant, unexplained difference" in B.C. gas prices compared to Washington state: BCUC report

That’s David M. Morton, Chair and CEO of the British Columbia Utilities Commission (BCUC). Their inquiry into B.C. gas prices has found that there is a “significant unexplained difference” of about 13 cents per litre in the price of gas in southern B.C. compared to the rest of the Pacific Northwest.

Cellphone ban to take effect for students in Ontario classrooms - should B.C. follow suit?

School is right around the corner for families across Canada and the government of Ontario is gearing up to radically change how cell phones are used in the classroom.

Their provincial government is looking to implement a ban by as early as November, so we wanted to reach out to someone who knows education inside and out to have an honest conversation about whether cellphones in the classroom are actually a problem.

"Significant, unexplained difference" in B.C. gas prices compared to Washington state: BCUC report

An inquiry into gasoline prices by the BC Utilities Commission has found a significant, unexplained difference of 13-cents per litre in southern B-C.

Commission Chair David Morton says the price in Metro Vancouver is higher than would be expected under more competitive conditions, and the higher price differentials cannot be explained by economic theory or justified by known factors in the market.

But Morton says they found no evidence to suggest collusion among retail operators or evidence of cartel behaviour.
