UV 8.5 is insane, like does that mean you can’t even walk outside? Sunscreen better be mandatory.
So they’re saying the Surrey Police Board has a “gag” order… but like aren’t police already not allowed to say anything anyway? Sounds more like PR trouble than actual safety.
The border barriers for FIFA World Cup game days is wild, I heard somewhere they’re gonna shut down the whole crossing, like permanently?? Also how does a soccer match make drivers suddenly act like animals lol.
All this “nursery staff safety” petition stuff… I feel like people complain about everything in Surrey gardens now. If it’s been years then why didn’t they fix it the first time? Also the scholarships $2,500 sounds cool but where’s the part about the students actually being firefighters, like did they get permits or what?
