Here is your hourly news update from Vancouver604.
This afternoon, Six Flags says it's adding seat belts to the Goliath roller coaster at its Georgia park. The move comes less than two weeks after a rider was thrown from the ride and killed. The man who died was Hassan Jihad Ibn Kariem, forty-two, from Atlanta. The company hasn't detailed a timeline for the installation, but says the added restraints are meant to prevent another ejection.
This morning, we're learning the twenty twenty-six B.C. election saw the weakest voter showing on record. Less than half of the people eligible to cast a ballot actually did. The vote itself has wrapped up, but that turnout number is raising questions about how many British Columbians feel engaged with the process at all.
This morning, Vancouver's witch shops are feeling the boom in all things magical. Raven's Veil on Commercial Drive sells bones, Tarot and even has a reader on site and co-owners Michéal Reilly and Kara Gilbertson hand roll their own beeswax spell candles. WitchTok's #babywitch posts have racked up over thirty billion views, and Etsy cracked down on spell sellers earlier this year. UBC folklorist Sabina Magliocco says witchcraft tends to soak up whatever culture surrounds it, and has grown in the U.S. since 2016 as a kind of pushback against anxiety and the times.
Sunday morning, British Columbia woke up to a new government and a record low turnout. Conservatives swept to victory with just over forty eight per cent of the vote, well ahead of the NDP's thirty seven and the Greens' nearly eleven. Only forty eight point one per cent of registered voters cast a ballot, the lowest in a century. David Eby, who'd called the snap vote two years into his term, quit as NDP leader within two hours of results coming in. Conservatives took all ten Surrey ridings and four in Vancouver, while Green Leader Emily Lowan won her seat and Jeremy Valeriote held onto his.
This morning, a look at farming's future in the Fraser Valley. At Agassiz's Creekside Dairy, years of corn and Brussels sprouts had left the soil with barely any earthworms before the owners switched to regenerative methods fifteen years ago. The approach uses grazing and perennial crops to boost soil health. But a University of the Fraser Valley researcher, Chris Bodnar, warns without government standards, results vary widely, especially as companies use the term in marketing.
This afternoon, Nova Scotia announced more than three hundred fifty thousand dollars for boatbuilders and repair shops across the province. The money is meant to help those businesses grow into new markets. It's aimed specifically at companies already building or repairing boats in Nova Scotia.
A longtime Winnipeg city councillor is calling it quits this morning. Janice Lukes is stepping down after twelve years on council. She says things have gotten more divided during her time in office, and that people are treating elected officials with more hostility than they used to.
This morning, more scrutiny is landing on Ottawa's new medical assistance in dying law. The legislation leans heavily on advance directives, where people spell out their wishes ahead of time. One expert warns that approach is far from simple ethically, partly because it's genuinely hard to know how someone's illness will unfold down the road.
This morning, all eyes are on Israel as the country heads to the polls Tuesday. Benjamin Netanyahu has dominated the nation's politics for close to twenty years. This vote could define how history remembers him. Whatever happens Tuesday, it's being seen as a turning point for his political legacy.
This morning, Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva has won Brazil's presidential election, bucking a wider shift toward right-wing leaders across the region. The result also throws a wrench into the Trump administration's efforts to bring Brazil into its military coalition.
This morning, singer Chris Brown has been given a suspended sentence instead of jail time over an attack at a London nightclub. A court found Brown carried out an unprovoked assault on Abraham Diaw at the Tape nightclub back in February of 2023, while Brown was on tour. Despite that finding, he won't be going to prison.
This morning, word came that voice actor Eric Bauza has died at age forty six. The Scarborough native was the voice behind Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck for a new generation of fans. Over his career, Bauza picked up five Daytime Emmy nominations and took home three Children's and Family Emmy Awards.
This afternoon, My Chemical Romance is facing a lawsuit tied to a Hollywood Bowl show featuring a Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders bit. The group bringing the action, Pro Silver Star, claims the dancers on stage wore outfits almost indistinguishable from the cheerleaders' blue and white uniforms. No word yet from the band on the claim.

The Canucks are still searching for answers on the road, sitting one and five and one away from home and last overall in the standings. Rookie head coach Manny Malhotra says the team needs to hold pressure longer and generate more shots. Vancouver is giving up four point six seven goals a game, worst in the league. Forward Liam Ohgren, twenty-two, sat out Thursday as a healthy scratch to reset, with just five points and fourteen shots through twelve games. The Canucks face Anaheim Tuesday and San Jose Thursday.
The Whitecaps are feeling the squeeze with three games left. Vancouver managed barely a threat going forward on Saturday in Colorado, and the club has won just three of its last ten. Despite the skid, Vancouver still sits atop the Western Conference, one point up on Dallas. Head coach Jesper Sorensen says the group needs to find its rhythm and intensity again.
The Whitecaps still sit atop the MLS Western Conference, despite falling on Saturday to Colorado at Dick's Sporting Goods Park. Morgan Whittaker's goal was the difference for the Rapids. Vancouver has three regular season matches left to defend its spot.
The NHL has handed out its three stars of the week. Oilers forward Leon Draisaitl makes the list, alongside Calgary goaltender Devin Cooley. Montreal netminder Jacob Fowler rounds out the trio, giving both Alberta clubs and the Canadiens something to tout.
Kaiden Guhle's goal stood up as the winner yesterday afternoon, as the Canadiens topped the Jets outdoors at Princess Auto Stadium. Montreal never trailed in the Heritage Classic. Goaltender J. Fowler turned aside thirty-three of thirty-four shots. More than thirty thousand fans watched. It is Montreal's second straight win on this four-game road trip.
WWE legend Ric Flair is recovering after a fall outside a restaurant in Florida. He's recently spent time in hospital, and posted a photo on X showing him wearing an eyepatch. Flair says he's grateful for the messages and prayers from fans.
The Rise got the better of Calgary Wild FC on Sunday, winning three-two at Swangard Stadium in Burnaby. The home crowd saw Vancouver come out on top in a tight back-and-forth match between the two sides.
