Tuesday, March 29, 2016 at 10:55AM A number of us have noticed that TELUS, or whatever company, is delivering the phone books for TELUS, have, in their own, unique, inimitable "wisdom"; simply dropped the books off at driveways, regardless of whether the properties are vacant, part-time, or full time residents. They probably even deliver to bird houses!
We have been picking up these books on and off for the last two weeks from driveways on Pilkey Point Road.. We realize TELUS does not know who, or what, is on each property.
In short, if you noticed any of these soaked, books laying around, it would be great help if you get them to our Recycle Yard. it doth make for a wee bit of a mess on our roads, say what?
We will be getting in touch with the company this week
Thank You for your assistance!

Tuesday, March 29, 2016 at 10:54AM I found out I had lost them on Easter Sunday at around 6:00 to 7:00PM. The goggles are bright yellow with a black strap that says Thor.
Goggles were dropped somewhere in between Kenwood road going south to camp Columbia on the left side of the road and when I went to look for them to see if I dropped them last night they were gone so if anyone picked them up please call Jacob Howard at 250-246-4420
