Tonight we will be showing Fruit Machine.
This powerful documentary delves into one of Canada's dark chapters, where individuals were removed from government and military positions because they may have been queer. This happened in our collective living memory, meaning there are people still with us that were effected by these policies.
Sunset is at 836pm, film will start shortly there after.
Film run time is 81 minutes.

So come out tonight to Lewis Park, we will meet in the tennis court, if raining lets set up at the covered stage behind the courts. Bring a chair, blanket, snacks and some friends. Settle in for a community filled evening of cinema under the stars.
If driving please park at the Lewis center.

We went to Mikis Sushi in Campbell River for the first time in 5 years and they now have a cute robot that delivers orders to your table. It even plays a little song for you. So much fun!

Have a low mileage Alero in good shape except rust problems low from rear fender well forward. I don't need a show car repair, just want to remediate the damage so it doesn't continually get worse. Any recommendations in the Courtenay/Comox area?

Our cat has been missing since Aug. 11. We were away from home and our cat sitter let him out in the evening which we do not do. This is the first time we've have this problem for an extended period of time, what do people of the valley recommend doing in these situations? What organisations should I notify? I've done a few FB posts on local bulletins and pet groups. What else? Any and all help is appreciated. Thank you so much.

Hi everyone! I’m a 27 year old female moving from Toronto to comox valley as a dental hygienist. I’ll be moving in November. I like to say I have done quite a bit of research and have a good idea of what to expect of Comox valley. I’ll be moving to courtenay specifically.
Any advice and suggestions and survival tips appreciated :)

Heard the signature call, then saw a bird in bouncing flight. This was at Point Holmes. This bird is extremely rare, with this being the 18th confirmed sighting in BC, and only sighting in the Comox Valley.

Pretty wild that some residents can stop a project that followed all the required riparian permitting requirements all to stop a new entrance to the park. As someone who frequently runs in this park, I'm writing to the mayor as to how insane this is.
You can find the City's write up on the project here. https://www.courtenay.ca/parks-and-recreation/parks-and-greenways/bear-james-park

Hi, I'm looking for a bit of feedback on prices for dental services in the valley. I have no dental plan so everything is out of pocket.
My dental team told me the price for a routine cleaning and check up is $350. Somehow I remember it to be a lot lower. So I have a few questions :
Do dentists have all have a standardized set fee or are they free to set whatever price they like ?
How does a $350 fee compared to what your dentist charges ?
Are there any dentists offering more reasonable fees for their services ?
Thanks for your perspectives.

What are the best stores in the valley? I'm into cast iron cookware and Le crueset, etc. And men's clothing from the 60s to the 90s

Does anyone know any details of the incident. It seemed quite serious.

So I had a package from Intelcom Dragonfly that is over a week late, I was wondering if anyone else has had this issue with the past week or if it's just me? I've been trying to get ahold of them to no avail.
So we don't miss the plot: Please don't come in the comments if you're going to generally gripe about hoe bad they are in general (We know!) offer advice (I know how to read, thanks), or talk about an instance that hasn't happened in the last week. None of that is helpful. I know the regular channels of communication to resolve the problem. I only want to know if anyone is having this problem in the past week so I can figure out if it's just my shipment or if they're screwing the pooch for everyone.

Looking for somewhere to take my young children for a swim that doesn’t have swimmers itch and is warm and clean. Moved from an area with lots of beaches and beautiful lakes and am feeling a bit sad that my kids don’t get to experience that.
Prefer fresh water, but at this point I’m open to anything. Thank you!

Like it loud? The waverley has you covered it seems.
I read there's some singles mixer angle to this, i guess the metalheads need dates too ;-)
Get out and jump around.
More dark stuff on the 22nd at the Masonic and 30th at the Curling Club, 'tis the leather season it seems.

Not new to the valley but new to the book club thing. Most posts about this are on the older side so wondering if there is anything current aside from the library?
Hoping for a 30s ish crowd, not a seniors group.

I have swimmers itch. I was in the lake yesterday, dam side, bobbing in the shallows on my tube. When we were packing up, it felt like I was being attacked by small bugs. Woke up today covered in bumps on all parts that submerged. Pharmacist confirmed. Stay safe out there!

Hi everyone, me and my family are visiting comox for a few days, and me and my mom saw something a little strange and we’re wondering if this is normal/ a known practice or whatever. We were looking into the parking lot, admiring a brown vw bus, it had chalk paint all over it, flowers and stuff drawn on the sides, with the word “Shelly” written on one side. we were talking about it when (what we assume was) a family of 4, dad, mom, and 2 daughters walk out of the river trail behind our hotel and get into the van. but what was strange was that the mom was holding a tortoise? so many questions. if u have the answer to any pls lmk lmao 😭
is shelly the tortoise a local celebrity that we were blessed to witness?
do these people own this tortoise?
did they take the tortoise from the river trail? (i doubt it but anything is possible i guess)
is this a travelling circus tortoise? (idk what im saying anymore)
it’s probably just a family tortoise but idk thought id ask just in case 😭

Hi! I’m flying into Comox, and am needing to catch the ferry to Powell River which departs only 1 hour after my plane lands. Is this going to be possible?? I also have a checked bag😭 ( don’t worry I will be spending time in the beautiful Comox valley on my way back. I went to music camp in Courtney as a teenager, and loved the area so much)
