Blog Watching, Week ending August 10, 2014


As part of a weekly feature on the blog, every Sunday we offer up this weeks recap of the top five items viewed over the course of the last seven days.

Included in the countdown, we will provide links to the articles in question, offering up with one click of the mouse, those items of the week that you may have missed.

This week, a major fire on the city's east side topped our counter for the week, as a larger volume of readers reviewed our notes on the fire itself and then the follow up launch of the RCMP investigation into the cause of the fire.

The developments in the territory of the Gitxsan also proved to be of interest to our readers this week, as they caught up to events through two articles which we offered up this week.

While the top five was rounded out by a strong interest in the week of Udderfest in Prince Rupert.

Kicking off the top five items, the Fire at Totem Lanes in the early hours of Monday morning.
