For the Record continues to get record downloads as the popular podcast probes into interesting New West issues that are making national headlines this week!That's right, the National Post, City News, CKNW and a range of high profile social media platforms were covering the controversy regarding the removal of New West's crown logo. Out with the crown, in with the tugboat. So far, the public reaction has been decidedly negative, but Community First doesn't appear willing to back down. In fact, they're doubling down! Listen to a province-wide interview Mike Smyth featured which focused on the logo controversy. Callers to the show had a few pointed comments to make about the Royal City's mayor and his commitment to dump the crown. You're out of order!! Next up is an exclusive interview with School District #40 Trustee Kathleen Carlsen. She speaks about her recent advocacy to raise the plight of New Westminster students and teachers forced to learn in overheating portables. Carlsen was featured on CTV, Global and City News this week. Her opinion piece co-authored with Trustee Danielle Connelly was prominently featured in the Vancouver Sun. We also share an excerpt of an interview Trustee Connelly did with AM 730 host Jill Bennett. She too is speaking about concerns regarding a lack of school capacity and the impacts it's having on students, teachers and their parents. It's official! Now that Council has passed a motion introduced by Coun. Paul Minhas, the month of April will forevermore be designated as Sikh Heritage Month. Minhas speaks about what motivated him to initiate the motion and what it means to the local Sikh community in New West. The podcast wraps up with a tribute to King Charles who recently delivered the Speech from the Throne at the invitation of Prime Minister Carney. If you enjoy the podcast be sure to encourage your friends and family to listen every week and to follow us!FTR is available on all major platforms including Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and Amazon.

Le libéral Mark Carney, actuel Premier ministre par intérim, semble conserver un léger avantage sur le conservateur Pierre Poilievre, d'après les derniers sondages d'intentions de vote. Jour de vote ce lundi (28 avril 2025) au Canada. Favori, il y a quelques mois, le camp conservateur canadien s'est fait rattraper par les Libéraux, désormais en tête des sondages. «C'est un chamboulement inattendu, les Libéraux pourraient même rafler une majorité au Congrès», explique notre envoyée spéciale Marine de La Moissonnière, en direct d'Ottawa. Cela s'explique par les attaques répétées de Donald Trump qui ont dicté la campagne canadienne. De plus, le candidat libéral a recentré son programme vers la gauche, afin de rassembler plus d'électeurs. Près de 7.3 millions de Canadiens et Canadiennes ont déjà voté par anticipation, «preuve que cette élection passionne», indique notre reporter sur place.La fin de campagne a été marquée par un drame, ce week-end. Une voiture-bélier a foncé dans la foule lors d'un festival de la communauté philippine à Vancouver, en Colombie-Britannique. Bilan : des dizaines de blessés et 11 morts, dont une victime brésilienne, nous apprend la Folha de Sao Paulo. «Il n'y a pas de mots», titre le Vancouver Sun, «la communauté est en deuil et tente de comprendre l'attaque».Des commémorations ont eu lieu dimanche dans un «silence» pesant, jusqu'à ce qu'une femme entonne le chant Amazing Grace, raconte le média La Presse. Sur place, les reporters ont trouvé des riverains sous le choc : «C'était horrible», se souvient un témoin, «on entendait les cris de ceux qui avaient tout perdu, et les enfants pleuraient». Le suspect, inculpé pour meurtre, connu de la police et des services sociaux de santé mentale, aurait agi sans motivation terroriste, rappelle La Presse canadienne. En Haïti, la résurgence du choléraLes déplacés, déjà chassés de chez eux par la violence des gangs, sont contraints de vivre dans des conditions déplorables dans des sites, le plus souvent loin d'être adaptés à l'accueil de familles. Dans certains lieux d'accueil de Port-au-Prince, les déplacés sont donc aussi victimes du choléra. Tous les jours, l'ONG Médecins sans frontières enregistre de nouveaux cas. « Nous n'avons pas accès à l'eau potable, nous n'avons pas le choix que d'utiliser de l'eau de très mauvaise qualité », témoigne un habitant au micro de notre correspondant Peterson Luxama.La justice haïtienne se dote de deux nouveaux pôles judiciairesUn décret mettant en place deux pôles judiciaires vient de paraître en Haïti. L'un concerne la répression des crimes financier, l'autre, les crimes de masse et les violences sexuelles. C'est un pas vers le renforcement de l'état de droit, d'après l'Union européenne, car Haïti ne manque pas seulement de moyens et de policiers pour lutter contre les gangs, le pays n'a pas non plus les outils juridiques pour sanctionner les criminels. Ces deux nouveaux pôles constituent «une approche nouvelle» et favoriseront le traitement «d'affaires complexes», explique Gédéon Jean, directeur exécutif du Centre d'analyse et de recherche en droits de l'homme, le CARDDH, interrogé par Vincent Souriau.En République Dominicaine, des manifestations contre l'immigration haïtienne Ces manifestations étaient à l'appel du groupe nationaliste Antigua Orden Dominicana, l'ancien ordre dominicain. Le journal Listin Diario décrit les pancartes xénophobes des manifestants : «Stop aux femmes enceintes haïtiennes» ou bien «les Haïtiens te prennent ton emploi» ainsi que la tenue, des vêtements noirs, des membres du groupe paramilitaire. Quelques centaines de manifestants étaient présents.Ces derniers sont accusés, indique le média Acento, d'avoir «agressé» les militants de partis de gauche et communistes réunis, eux, pour commémorer la révolution d'avril 1965. Ces partis en ont profité pour dénoncer, écrit Acento, «le faux nationalisme, prétexte à un vrai racisme, qui dénigre le peuple frère haïtien». États-Unis : plus de 100 personnes sans-papiers arrêtées dans le Colorado C'est l'une des opérations les plus massives depuis le début du mandat de Donald Trump. L'opération a eu lieu, au petit matin, dimanche, dans une boîte de nuit clandestine de la ville de Colorado Springs, explique le Denver Post. Seules les personnes sans papiers ont été gardées en détention.D'après le journal local, une douzaine de militaires américains étaient aussi clients ou employés de l'établissement. Les autorités affirment que la boîte de nuit abritait du trafic de drogue, de la prostitution, des armes. Et était fréquentée, de plus, par des gangs latino-américains. Le Denver Post précise que les autorités n'ont pas prouvé, pour le moment, de liens entre les sans-papiers détenus et ces gangs.De son côté, le New York Times rapporte les expulsions de trois jeunes enfants, de 2, 4 et 7 ans, de nationalité américaine, renvoyés vers le Honduras avec leur mère qui n'avait pas de papiers. «Ce que nous voyons ces derniers jours est horrible et déconcertant», s'indigne une avocate des enfants, dans le journal new yorkais.La presse américaine dresse aussi le bilan de la guerre commerciale avec la Chine. Et le New York Times choisit pour cela, un dessin. L'infographie interactive «Votre maison sans la Chine», nous apprend en se baladant dans ce dessin d'une maison américaine typique, on découvre qu'aux États-Unis la quasi-totalité des poussettes, des réveils, des plantes artificielles ou encore des grille-pain et des barbecues sont importés de Chine. Des objets frappés de 145% de taxes. Leur prix risque d'augmenter même si «la fabrication de certains objets a déjà été déplacée au Mexique ou au Vietnam», nuance le journal new yorkais.

Roy L Hales/Cortes Currents - With just six days remaining until election day, a new poll reveals the Conservatives hold a strong lead in the North Island—Powell River riding. Among the 402 eligible voters surveyed between April 17 and April 19, 45% said they intend to vote for Conservative candidate Aaron Gunn. NDP candidate Tanille Johnston trails in second with 23%, followed by Liberal contender Jennifer Lash at 13%. Both Jessica Wegg of the Green Party and Paul Macknight of the People's Party received 2% support, while independent candidate Glen Staples sits at 1%. Meanwhile, 15% of voters remain undecided.There is some good news for retiring MP Rachjel Blaney whose performance was approved by 51% of the respondents. 40% disapproved. Pierre Poilievre of the Conservative Party is the top-rated federal leader among voters in this constituency, with 53% support. He is followed by Liberal leader Mark Carney at 42%, NDP leader Jagmeet Singh at 41%, Green Party co-leaders Elizabeth May and Jonathan Pedneault at 27%, and People's Party leader Maxime Bernier at 19%. Poilievre draws strong backing from men (53%), as well as from voters aged 35 to 54 (48%) and those 55 and older (49%). In contrast, Carney leads among younger voters aged 18 to 34, with 45% support, and the two men have an almost equal following among female votres. (Carney 35%, Poilievre 34%). The poll was sponsored by the David Suzuki Foundation and conducted by Vancouver-based Research Co, led by Mario Canseco, a veteran public opinion researcher since 2003. Canseco is a regular political commentator and columnist for Glacier Media, with work published in the Vancouver Sun, Globe and Mail, and National Observer. In related news, Research co also carried out a National survey which found that 43% of decided voters would vote Liberal as opposed to 38% for the Conservatives. This fits a pattern that all but one Canadian pollster has been reporting this week. The exception being Mainstreet Research, which reported a Conservative victory in 2 out of 3 surveys. If the election were to take place today CBC Polltracker, which draws upon the data from all polls, states the odds of a Liberal victory 96%. 338Canada states the odds are 90%. Both companies state the most likely scenario is the LIberals will form a majority government. On Vancouver Island, 338Canada's projection is that the four northern ridings will turn Conservative, but the only ‘CPC Safe seat' (which means victory is almost certain) is North Island Powell River. The three south Vancouver Island ridings are all ‘toss-ups', but Elizabeth May now has a slim lead in Saanich-Gulf Islands, the Liberals are ahead by a nose in Victoria and the Conservatives in Esquimalt, Saanich - Sooke.

In today's influencer-driven landscape, even the most experienced agents are losing deals to newer agents who do one thing differently - posting great content online.  The market doesn't just reward expertise - it rewards expertise, visibility and consistency, and that can be shown through the content we put out.  Social media content is a valuable asset in our businesses - especially in a down market. It is the marketing vehicle that validates us in the eyes of the consumer, fuels lead generation, reduces our marketing costs and makes us profitable.  In a tough market, it's tempting to pull back on our marketing efforts, but that actually cuts off a valuable revenue stream. This is the perfect time to double down on marketing and pour into our social media and sphere of influence.  How do we create content that guarantees current and future business? How do we leverage hyper-local, hyper-branded content?  In this episode, I'm joined by the CEO and co-founder of Roomvu, Sam Mehrbod. He shares how their platform (and partnership with ConstantContact) helps agents turn content into a solid source of business.    Things You'll Learn In This Episode  Entertaining, educational and enduring  If we're consistent about content creation, it can validate us and reduce our marketing costs. What kind of content should we post to achieve this? Hyperlocal and hyper-branded content Consistency and visibility are really important in today's real estate market. How does Roomvu help busy agents accomplish this in less time? Never stop marketing  The current real estate market has made many agents slow down or step to the sidelines. Why is this a huge mistake?  How to turn social media into a revenue stream Why do real estate agents who invest in content outearn and outlast everyone else?  Guest Bio Sam Mehrbod is an innovative entrepreneur in real estate technology.

On Jan. 1, 1922 at 6 a.m., Vancouver made the switch from driving on the left side of the road to driving on the right side of the road. This switch was supposed to happen one year earlier but it took time to rework the streetcar system to make the switch. Despite the switch for driving, no accidents were reported in the city on that day. The Vancouver Sun reported on Jan. 2, 1922, “No accidents as Vancouver turns to right. Entire populace calmly switches rule of road without a ruffle. It all seems like going backward.” It was actually the first Sunday in the previous 12 months where no accident was reported in Vancouver.

Life challenges us in different ways. While some seem to sail smoothly through life in a breeze, others are met by one tumultuous storm after another. Hang tight because today's special guest for The Ripple Effect Podcast will take us on an emotional cruise through life and all its sides — the good and the ugly. After listening to her story, our special guest will restore your faith in humanity. So, who's our awe-inspiring guest? Pam Rankel shares a deeply personal and inspiring story of overcoming tragedy, loss, and the journey to healing. Having faced unimaginable hardships, she recounts the pivotal moments of her life that turned pain into strength, transforming a story of sorrow into one of resilience. Pam Rankel has experienced things that no one in this world deserves to. She survived s**ual abuse from a doctor in an unsupervised appointment and physical abuse from a person who's supposed to love and protect her — her husband. After freeing herself from this abusive relationship, she tried to dip her toe into the dating pool. Instead of finding the love she deserves, she experiences the anxiety-inducing feeling of being pursued by a dangerous stalker. Pam also has to endure the grief that comes with losing a son in labor and another son, Micheal, in an accident. “I've always wished I could have saved my own children, but I couldn't. Maybe, though, I could save someone else's,” Pam said. Pam Rankel saved a young man's life by donating her healthy kidney. The donee, Cole Derry, is the same age as her surviving son, Ryan. Pam's inspiring story was featured on several media platforms, such as the Vancouver Sun and Global News, and is in the talks for a film adaptation. After all Pam has been through, she found her way back to joy, compassion, humor, and gratitude. She is now on a quest to help others with similar experiences overcome abuse, grief, addiction, and trauma through “A Course in Miracles” life coaching. Pam is a real-life superhero, and I'm so thankful to have met her. She has inspired me in so many ways, and I strongly believe that the world deserves to hear her story.

Rich Elwood was a Vancouver radio personality, actor, stand-up comedian and comedy club owner. His comedy career started doing Bill Cosby routines in front of his Grade 7 class and he polished his act in Toronto's notorious Yonge Street strip clubs. "They were a good training ground," he told the Vancouver Sun's Lee Bacchus, "You would have about 200 guys out there all yelling 'Bring out the broads!' You had to be good or you'd be doing the last 10 minutes to heckles and boos." Rich says, "Doing standup was always a blast. However, bands typically didn't care for standup warmups. In one case, the last thing they said to me before going on was 'Keep it short and don't touch our equipment.' I was only going to do five minutes and would not need to touch their gear, but it became a twenty minute set that ended in me giving myself a cymbal crash. 'Don't say don't to a comedian', I said to them coming off. I opened for many acts over the years including Tom Jones (a class guy and very gracious), The Righteous Brothers (quiet but nice), Howie Mandel (a super person and very funny), Dennis Miller (very bright), The Temptations (very cool people) and Ray Charles, who was so nice to me and I was very much in awe of him. Man, did he have stories!" Punchline's was the first real comedy club in Vancouver. Robin Williams, Jerry Seinfeld, Jim Carrey, Norm Macdonald, Howie Mandel and other greats all headlined. Rich also opened the door to up-and-coming comics Ryan Stiles, Rick Ducommun, Patrick McKenna and many more. His Vancouver radio career in Vancouver included CFUN (as DJ Rich Kelly) and CKNW as a talk show host. He was MC for Red's 50th Anniversary In Radio celebration in 2004, and he would also step in for Red on CISL's morning show. Among Rich's acting roles over the years was a part in Adam Sandler's Happy Gilmore in the mid-1990s. After getting out of the club business, he was an in-demand corporate comic and producer. Rich wrote comedy for the hit political series Double Exposure, and he developed several TV projects with writing partner Patrick McKenna. Rich Elwood died on December 2, 2021 at the age of 67. Old friend John Oliver says, "One of the funniest people I have ever known and a true friend. A risk-taker, an entrepreneur who never quit in his efforts to bring quality comedy to Vancouver." Tom Jeffries replaced Rich at CFUN: "He was most gracious and we had so much fun when he ran Punchline's. A very talented and hilarious man ― I miss him. I was blessed to call him a friend." Recorded in Vancouver in 2013.

Episode 330: In this episode, we explore a horrific case that shocked both Hollywood and Canada - the brutal murder of Iana Kasian by her fiancé, graphic novelist and filmmaker Blake Leibel. On May 26, 2016, the mutilated body of 30-year-old Iana Kasian was discovered in the West Hollywood apartment she shared with Leibel. What makes this case particularly chilling is not just the gruesome nature of the crime but the background of the perpetrator himself. Blake Leibel, born into a wealthy Canadian family, had relocated to Los Angeles to pursue a career in the entertainment industry. As a graphic novelist and aspiring filmmaker, Leibel had contributed to a work titled “Syndrome,” which eerily foreshadowed the brutal manner in which he would later take Kasian's life. The timing of this heinous act adds another layer of tragedy to the story. Kasian, originally from Ukraine, had given birth to the couple's daughter just three weeks before her murder. What should have been a joyous time for the new parents instead became a nightmare that would leave a child without her mother and a family shattered.

Her bloody earmuffs, bloodstains, a discharged shotgun shell, and a pry bar were found, suggesting foul play, but her body was never located. In 1989, Scott Ian MacKay was convicted of second-degree murder concerning Telesford's death despite maintaining his innocence. MacKay had a history of violent assaults on women. Recently, after serving a life sentence, MacKay was controversially granted day parole, raising concerns from the community and victim advocates about public safety risks and his lack of remorse.
