Kelowna General Hospital's pediatric ward is closed, which is very bad. Meanwhile our premier is in Asia while the other premiers met with Mark Carney.

In Ottawa, the Throne Speech passes quietly in the night despite the NDP's pledge to vote against. And the Liberals introduce their first bills, including a major border and security state overhaul bill.
