Hockey proved to be a popular theme as readers reviewed our notes on the recently launched Kraft Hockeyville competition and a bid from Haida Gwaii to claim the bragging rights for 2017.
The year started out with some positive investment news for the community as AltaGas announced that it was going ahead with its proposed Propane shipment terminal at Ridley Island.
Two items from City Hall caught the attention of our readers this week, with a large amount of interest in our item on a civic employment opportunity and the latest item of interest related to the city owned Legacy Corporation.
And with the start of the new year came the annual release of property assessments for the province from BC Assessment, with readers giving a read to our report on this years information release.
