I can't get over the story of a young guy who travels from Calgary to #SurreyBC to buy car, goes to a relative's house for dinner, then a tree crushes the car 90 minutes after he bought it, during Saturday's storm Crazy bad luck. surreynowleader.com/2026/11/… via @SurreyNowLeader

I’m a Lions fan since childhood, and I really do want them to win, but their futility in a 9-team football league is actually quite staggering. No Grey Cup appearances since 2011. Not good.

Twice-elected Thind wants crony declared trustee to avoid $840K byelection in #SurreyBC. Byelection would bring 'electoral integrity,' rival says. Cost of byelection would be funded entirely by @Surrey_Schools. What do you think of this situation? surreynowleader.com/2026/11/…

I legit was there for Bure’s first game, unlike thousands of liars and pretenders who claim they were. Yes, it was beyond electric in the Coliseum.
On this day in Vancouver #Canucks history, November 5, 1991: Pavel Bure makes his NHL debut in a 2-2 tie against the Winnipeg Jets at Pacific Coliseum, and is named the third star of the game. 🎥: Canucks/X

During my teen party years, Panagopoulos 2 for 1 pizza was the absolute go-to for me and my friends in the Fraser Valley. Funny how people think it's so corporate now, as @Panago_Pizza, when it was so mom-and-pop in the 1980s. surreynowleader.com/2026/11/…
