Headline: Increased demand in water supply may cause discolouration for Osoyoos residents
So,, I wonder what color Osoyoos residents will be ?

Arrest in attack on baby
https://www.castanet.net/edition/news-s ... htm#373818
This is irresponsible editing. Someone threw a bottle at parents with a baby. Some of the liquid landed on the baby. Yes it was terrible but it was not the same thing as someone attacking a baby.

Wasn't even reported by the parents who left before police arrived but it must have been "terrifying".

From the article: "At 4:30 p.m. on June 27, a call was made to police reporting that a man was throwing a glass bottle at the child and their parents at the intersection of Davie and Bidwell."JLives wrote: ↑Jul 1st, 2022, 7:19 am Arrest in attack on baby

Where do you get "threw a bottle at parents WITH a baby" ?
I think we're arguing semantics here.
- at·tack /əˈtak/
an aggressive and violent action against a person or place.
"he was killed in an attack on a checkpoint"
Are you saying that although the bottle was thrown in the direction of the baby and it's contents spilled on the baby, that that should be called something else ? "Arrest made in irresponsible throwing of bottle that almost struck a baby"

Wife of accused in B.C. gangster's murder sues RCMP over damage during searches
Spouse argues police should have phoned ahead so she could unlock doors
Serena Franz says that if police had called ahead, either she or her accused killer husband Matthew Dupre would have arranged to let them into their home and a lakeside property they own.
Thanks for my morning laugh.
