Two chronic offenders are facing 70 separate charges related to a spate of commercial break-ins that took place in Vancouver and surrounding communities during the past few months.

Vancouver police say Burnaby men Shane Duhamel, 44, and Jesse Palanio, 33, were both arrested over a month ago and remain in custody.

"We believe that the arrest of these two suspects and the subsequent charge approval will have a major impact on commercial break-ins around the city," said Sgt. Aaron Roed.

Duhamel is charged with 14 counts of break-and-enter; two counts of possession of break-in instruments; one count of disguise with intent; and 23 counts related to failure to comply with probation and release orders.

Found out this weekend that there is a private catholic elementary school in burnaby (that narrows it down lol) that currently has one student in attendance daily.

The boys parents are both essential workers (mom: nurse; dad: garbageman) and his remaining grandparents are immuno compromised. All other students families could make arrangements except this one.

Did I just see a news story about the NHL playing things out in Vancouver and Victoria?

Since I'm not commuting to and from Nanaimo every day lately I'm not paying attention to sports much these days so it sounded new to me?

Horgan chatted with Bettman again today, and apparently suggested all the games could be spread around bc

Horgan hasnt said much more about a june 1 optional back to school in the last week. im guessing the bctf is giving that a big no

if its any indication, my sons grade 6 teacher emailed the classes parents and went a nicer version of mike commodore

paraphrasing: “ I packed your shit in garbage bags. Come by at 10:05 to pick it up outside my door “

My wifes best friend is a nurse here. She said it happened in icu. “Patient zero” tested negative for covid so was moved to the non covid section of the unit they had partitioned. A week later that patient tested positive

i think i saw only 1 active case on the island right now too :thumb:

We've been lucky, but I also think that people for the most part have taken it seriously. It also probably doesn't hurt that we have an elderly population who like to stay close to home.

Correct. I had to go to the hospital, here in Victoria, the other day and thankfully the one hospital dealing with cases (or case) isn’t the one near me.
