According to Wikipedia:
- MLAs Andrew Wilkinson, Mike Bernier, and Mike de Jong announce their candidacy for the BC Liberal Party leadership race. UNBC Chancellor James Moore is also rumoured to announce his candidacy.
- "Candy Land is a simple racing board game currently published by Hasbro. The game requires no reading and minimal counting skills, making it suitable for young children. Due to the design of the game, there is no strategy involved: players are never required to make choices, just follow directions. The winner is predetermined by the shuffle of the cards. A perennial favourite, the game sells about one million copies per year."
- "Rates of [alcohol] consumption during Prohibition: Illegal sales are not officially reported or measured, but there are indirect estimates using alcohol related deaths and cirrhosis, a liver disease specifically tied to ongoing alcohol consumption. Scholars estimate that consumption dropped to a low of about 60% of pre-prohibition levels around 1925, rising to almost 80% before the law was officially repealed."
- "Seasteading is the concept of creating permanent dwellings at sea, called seasteads, outside the territory claimed by any government.... Seasteaders say such autonomous floating cities will foster faster development of techniques to 'feed the hungry, cure the sick, clean the atmosphere, and enrich the poor.' Some critics fear seasteads are designed more as a refuge for the wealthy to avoid taxes or other problems."
