Vancouver Papers: Nice Knowing you Sami Salo

The Province is on it's game today. The front cover headline of "Beaten to death over a billiard ball" is a tragic story of a 20-year old who died in hospital after being beaten up in Nanaimo this weekend. Meanwhile on the back we have Sami Salo, "Salo's Biggest Shot." And the two overtime win euphoria this weekend is now quickly moved into, if Salo keeps it up he will be priced out of Vancouver next season. It's always something in this damned city isn't it?

Over in The Sun there is this 'only in BC' story about confused crows, "The destruction of the roost site earlier this year for development of a Costco outlet and new Keg restaurant has left one researcher concerned and more than a little saddened." Damn you big boxes this is a total crow slaughter. And then they have a big story about Polygamy on the cover too. But if you dig into the paper you get this, "MPs, pages partied at Ottawa pubs" which is gold because of this, "graduates of the Canadian program say pages and MPs routinely partied together and some had romantic entanglements."

24 Hours has protestors this fine Monday morning. "Six people have barricaded themselves inside an upper floor of the old North Star Hotel at 5 West Hastings Street, a heritage-listed building that has been vacant since 1999."
