As Surrey rejects $250 million from the province to aid the city's police transition, we ask viewers for their advice for Surrey Mayor Brenda Locke and B.C. Public Safety Minister Mike Farnworth and get analysis from Hamish Telford, Associate Professor, Political Science, University of the Fraser Valley. The celebration of Eid al-Fitr, marking the end of Ramadan, draws Vancouver's Muslim community to B.C. Place Stadium.
And our guests Bryce Taylor, recovering gambling addict, and Adrienne Cossom, Registered Clinical Social Worker with Gambling Support BC, and host of the Fold Em podcast talk about the growth of online gambling — and discuss when a hobby turns into an addiction--and what to do about it.
