Kyla Lee on Global News: Okanagan drivers’ need for speed results in hundreds of impounds, tickets

Okanagan drivers aren’t scared to put the pedal to the metal on highways, a risk that comes with a hefty consequence.

The statement comes as the Kelowna B.C. Highway Patrol releases that they have impounded hundreds of cars already this year in response to excessive speeding and aggressive driving.

“The number of vehicle compounds is quite staggering in the Kelowna area,” said Cpl. Michael McLaughlin.

Weird and Wacky Wednesdays: Episode 325

I love TikTok. It’s a platform I post on regularly. I find it entertaining and I learn things too. Coming up with topics isn’t always easy, but I’ve managed to make it look easy. Unlike some content creators, I steer clear of stunts. In Canada, TikTokers can’t monetise their accounts, so for creators in our lovely country, it’s a true labour of love. Without the pressure to generate views, the platform feels lighter and more genuine. That said, content creators in the U.S. sometimes take things way too far in their quest for internet fame. Here are a few instances where things didn’t go according to plan.

Kyla Lee in Vancouver is Awesome: Is it legal to keep backyard chickens in Vancouver?

Some Vancouver residents can keep chickens in their backyard but they may want to reconsider buying a hen house for now.

The City of Vancouver permits residents to have a maximum of four hens, over the age of four months on a lot (no roosters). Owners must register their hens, get permits, and notify the city if they decide not to keep them. 

The Animal Control By-law does not allow residents to keep any other fowl in their backyards. However, a spokesperson for the city tells V.I.A. that it is reviewing the by-law to include more specific details on what bird species may be kept in a backyard coop.

People may also want to carefully consider the risks of handling chicks and wild birds transmitting viruses.

Weird and Wacky Wednesdays: Episode 324

This week on Weird and Wacky Wednesdays, we’re diving into the strange and surprisingly common world of insurance fraud. While some crimes might be rooted in desperation, the frauds we’re looking at today seem to have more to do with greed. What stands out isn’t just the sheer audacity of these schemes but also the creativity involved. In tough times, we often see an increase in these types of crimes, but it’s hard to imagine that personal financial hardship drove the people in these cases.
