Curious how long people usually get out of snow tires. Just pulled out my three-year-old snow, tires, from my RAV4, probably 20 K on them and they’re almost down to the wear bars.
I think Wakeham is over his boots in this role. He seems to be led by advisors more than his own understanding of issues. If the railroaded CF deal is allowed to proceed without further oversight I think we'll be spending the next few decades talking about how bad it was.
Premier Tony Wakeham reiterates his confidence in Churchill Falls deal, saying, "There will be no renegotiation of this agreement" saltwire.com/newfoundland-la…

Just wondering how the Big Orange Doofus is going to spin this resounding loss.
Immigrants? Trans voters? Wonky voting machines?
What he WON”T say is people are sick of him.

In Ontario, once you reach age 65, you qualify for provincial drug coverage. Almost all drugs covered, 100%. For everyone.
In Newfoundland, unless you're basically at the poverty line, NOTHING covered.
How is this fair?

Hey @DinnPaul I know it's tough for parents working in health care roles, but...it's tough for EVERY parent struggling to find child care. I really thought this announcement would be something more significant. vocm.com/2026/10/30/new-dayc…

Hey @BarryPetten, how about laying off the name-calling and offering some solutions instead?
Spent any time at an emergency department lately? Or spent an hour trying to find a parking spot for a hospital visit? vocm.com/2026/10/27/314683/

So I finally got to watch Below.
I like it, but man...the story just gets so bizarre at times.
And Joel Thomas Hynes shows, once again, that you can scratch out a career just playing yourself over and over.

I don't usually agree with him, but this time he's right.

Daughter bought a new Lancer from these guys . Worst new-car experience I've ever seen. Denied claims under warranty, mocked her when she described a problem with a noisy seat (which we found and fixed ourselves), claimed a paint issue was misuse (common complaint).
Terrible.
Re a new press secretary, I hear Pete Hegseth will probably be looking for a new job real soon.

Heading to North Sydney for a ferry crossing tonight; only to find out it's cancelled, plus every sailing TOMORROW is cancelled.
The joy of fall travel...

The NL fishery had plenty of HEART and NET long before you showed up, Joshy b’y!

In case people are wondering, this is the economic genius who is (not-so) gradually driving the US economy off a cliff.
First time I’ve watched any of the Churchill Falls debate; man, the level of grandstanding and self-serving pettiness (on both sides) is unbelievable. #nlpoli

Humbled to hear the poignant and compassionate address at the 9/11 memorial from @FarwellPercy, childhood friend and now mayor of Gander.

Is this @VOCMNEWS 's error or Minister Pardy's?
25% of $500M is NOT $100M, it's $125M. Or is that considered a rounding error these days?

I guess everyone is rushing out to pre-order their new foldable iPhone; at a whopping $3k.
