Re: Can I have some help on Fish please?
I like the fish you can get here; the salmon, for instance, is usually very good. The only exception is ling cod, which isn't that great if (like me) you are expecting it to be like proper cod.

Re: BC Provincial Election
I think that Kinder Morgan is more or less a done deal, whereas the gateway project is far from certain.

Re: Permanent Residency Card Extension
