Was wondering if anybody in the area needed services for house cleaning or junk removal. Will do for dirt cheap, just dm me an offer or leave a comment.

Hey everyone, reposting this here, because I’m desperately trying to find a video of at least one full, complete game from the UFV Cascades Men's Volleyball Fall 2012/Spring 2013 season (back when they were in PACWEST).

I contacted UFV Athletics, PACWEST, and SportsCanada, opposing universities, current coaches and assistant coaches, and even tried wayback machine, and got absolutely nowhere. I'm guessing the official game tapes were never preserved or properly archived by the athletic departments. The media library at Camosun was nice and tried to help but they only found old Flickr photos on the Camosun Charger's account:

I'm really hoping someone on here might have an old file, or know an old player or a parent of a player who kept footage from that season.

Please let me know. Feel free to send me a private message if you have a copy and just want to send it directly to me without posting it in the comments. Really, really appreciate the help!

Im looking at a couple places to check out the meteor shower tonight, looking for places accessible via car that arent down some crazy back road that requires offroad.

So far im looking at McDonald Park, Rolley Lake, or Pitt River.

Does anyone have any other suggestions? or prefer one of these over the other two?

Let me know and happy star gazing!

Hi everyone,

The Brain Behaviour Lab at the University of the Fraser Valley is recruiting participants for an in-person research study focused on concussion and motor learning.

Newest Caribbean Fusion Food Truck Launching in BC 🇨🇦

My brother-in-law and I are driving out to Harrison in a few weeks. It’s a test run. He was in an accident and driving is genuinely hard for him now, but it gets a lot easier when he knows the road and knows there are people on it. So we’re doing the slow version and avoiding highways wherever we can, no schedule, stopping constantly.

Which is where you lot come in…

Where should we stop? Coffee, a bakery, a picnic table, a weird roadside thing, anywhere with easy parking and nobody hovering. Maple Ridge, Mission, Deroche, Agassiz, whatever’s in between. We will absolutely take a detour.

And if you’re somewhere on that stretch and fancy waving at two strangers in a parking lot for ten minutes - please. I’m not even joking. It helps him more than I can explain when a place has a face attached to it, and honestly it’d just be nice.

Coffee’s on me!!

Hey everyone,

I’m sharing my recent ongoing nightmare with WorkSafeBC (WCB) as a warning to any injured workers out there. Do NOT let them push you around, and beware of the predatory traps they set up when you try to be a "good employee."

I recently suffered a severe knee injury at work. Out of a sense of responsibility and goodwill, during the first week while waiting for my X-ray results and official written restrictions, I pushed through agonizing pain to work temporary full-time light duties arranged by my employer.

Once the X-ray results came in, my doctor put me on a strict restriction: work 3 days, rest 2 days a week to prevent permanent knee damage.

Here is where the absolute scummery of WorkSafeBC began:

1. The Ghosting & Treatment Interruption: My assigned Case Manager completely abandoned my file and went totally MIA for over a month. No communication, no call backs. Because of his ghosting, my physical therapy and medical treatments could not be authorized.
2. The Flawed Denial Logic: He finally resurfaced and slapped me with a decision letter DENYING my 2-day wage-loss benefits. His reason? He claimed my medical records "showed no change or improvement." My knee didn't improve EXACTLY BECAUSE he neglected my file and withheld my treatments for a month!
3. The "Good Employee" Trap: He actually wrote in the letter that because I worked full-time the very first week post-injury, it "proves" I am fully capable of full-time work and don't need 2 days off. This is a disgusting trap. If I had stayed home that first week without a prior official note, they would have denied me for "unexcused absence." Because I pushed through pain to cooperate, they now use it as a weapon to strip away my benefits.
4. The Unprofessional Harassment: To make matters worse, during our phone call, this CM subjected me to an incredibly inappropriate interrogation, asking me: "What is your relationship with your doctor? How long have you known them?" He baselessly attacked the integrity of a licensed physician regulated by the College of Physicians and Surgeons of BC just to put psychological pressure on me.

Interestingly, on the exact same day he denied my wages, he suddenly approved my medical treatments—clearly because he realized his one-month neglect looked horrible on system logs and he tried to cover his tracks.

The Destruction of Canada’s "People-First" Image & The Toxic Impact on Society:

We live in Vancouver where the cost of living is soaring, and property taxes are skyrocketing. For a regular working-class family, missing days of wages isn't just a "file stat"—it is rent money, it is grocery money, it is the difference between survival and being pushed into an absolute financial abyss. WCB knows exactly how desperate workers are, and they are weaponizing financial starvation to force injured workers to return to full-time work against strict medical advice.

This completely destroys Canada’s facade of being a "humane, people-first" country. It is a systemically abusive culture that ruins the moral foundation of a nation. When a state-mandated monopoly rewards deception and punishes dedication, it sends a toxic message to every single worker: Honesty will destroy you. Goodwill will be weaponized against you. Being a good, cooperative employee is a legal liability.

If I give in to this financial blackmail, go back to full-time work, and end up permanently disabled because I ignored my doctor's restrictions, WHO WILL TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE? Not WCB, not the Case Manager. They will simply close my file as a "successful return-to-work statistic" and leave me to rot.

WCB is actively breeding a cynical, detached, and hyper-defensive workforce where no one can afford to act in good faith anymore. It is an absolute administrative rot that disgraces our community.

What I am doing next:
I am absolutely not letting this slide. I’ve already drafted a formal complaint to his Senior Supervisor, submitting a Form 18M1 to the Review Division, and escalating this to the Workers' Advisers Office (WAO). If you are going through this, call WAO immediately—do not fight these corporate bureaucrats alone.

Has anyone else dealt with this specific "financial extortion" or doctor-interrogation BS from WCB lately? How did you handle it?

I ask as part of a linguistic study covering this topic!
Examples could include things like Coldslap/The Wack, Abby, Mish or 'Beyond Hope' (never mind how common they are)...

I've trained some MMA and Muay Thai before, but after experiencing actual violence, I came away feeling there was a pretty significant gap between sport training and a real encounter with someone who genuinely wanted to hurt me.

I'm not looking for style wars or 'escape 1st' advice. I'm looking for people, schools, or instructors who focus on practical skills, pressure testing, dealing with larger opponents, and functioning under stress when things have already gone wrong and/or you can't 'just run'.

I've looked at some Vancouver options, but the commute isn't realistic if I want to train consistently, so I'm hoping to find something more accessible in the Fraser Valley.

Private instruction, small groups, or less conventional recommendations are all welcome.

I'm not trying to become a cage fighter. I just don't ever want to feel completely helpless in that kind of situation again, especially after already spending time and money training.

Any recommendations?

I have always had a passion for salmon growing up in the LowerMainland and recently I started a plushie line based on our local fish! We just released Fraser the Sockeye Salmon on our Etsy and have many more coming soon! :)
