vehicle-impounded-for-excessive-speed

A 48-year-old Surrey man was fined $483 for excessive speeding, and the Ferrari he was driving was impounded for seven days.

A recent enforcement initiative by the Langley RCMP has highlighted a dangerous case of excessive speeding in a residential neighborhood near Wagonwheel Crescent and 56th Avenue.

On May 24, 2025, officers observed a red Ferrari travelling at 124 km/hr in a posted 50 km/hr zone, with a second radar reading of 123 km/hr recorded just 97.9 meters away. This level of speed in a residential area poses a significant risk to public safety.

A 48-year-old Surrey man was fined $483 for excessive speeding, and the Ferrari he was driving was impounded for seven days.

Driving at such excessive speeds in neighborhoods where families live and children play is completely unacceptable, said Sergeant Zynal Sharoom of the Langley RCMP. We take these violations seriously and will continue our enforcement efforts to keep our roads safe.

Throughout the month of May, Police across British Columbia are focusing on reducing high-risk driving behaviours. We urge drivers to slow down, remain focused and make safe choices while driving.

Fair Voting BC and the Springtide Collective for Democratic Society argued the first-past-the-post voting system violates the Charter of Rights and Freedoms' guarantee of effective representation. The groups also said the system leads to the underrepresentation of women and other groups in Parliament, breaching the

Australia will recognize a Palestinian state, Prime Minister Albanese says

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has announced that Australia will recognize a Palestinian state. This move aligns with recent signals from leaders in France, Britain and Canada.

The recognition will be formalized at the United Nations General Assembly in September. Conditions include no role for Hamas in a Palestinian government and the demilitarization of Gaza. Israeli leader Benjamin Netanyahu criticized the decision, while Australian Jewish and Pal

B.C.'s 2024 deficit comes in under forecast at $7.3B

British Columbia's final deficit for the fiscal year has come in at $7.3 billion, $564 million lower than the original projected number in Budget 2024. The final deficit is also about $1.8 billion lower than the most recent third-quarter forecast. Finance Minister Brenda Bailey says B.C. was able to report a lower-than-projected deficit largely due to revenue from the Insurance Corporation of British Columbia.
