Good morning!
We had a few readers email in asking what's going on with the Musky that's offshore. In our What's Offshore section, we highlight any bulk carrier ships that are making a pit stop in the waters off the coast of the Westshore on their way to a local port. The Musky was scheduled to arrive in Vancouver on Dec. 30, but based on our data, it's still sitting off our coast waiting to be called into port. Do you have a view of the water from your home? Send us a photo of the Musky if you can spot it!

Colwood council takes on primary-care crisis
Colwood is weighing the options in opening a new non-profit medical centre after continuous difficulty with staffing, available facilities, and increasing demand. Colwood council met on Monday to discuss using a fully-constructed centre in Royal Bay known as Pure Medical Clinic. With unanimous approval, council is now working towards opening the centre as a walk-in clinic, as councillors and residents of Colwood are eager to see change to their medical access.
