#VancouverIsland #University said it will close its #Nanaimo campus #library from midnight - 9 a.m., another campus-access restriction that has been enacted after pro #Palestinian #students began an #encampment.

The only 24-hour library on Vancouver Island, the #VIU university library is steps away from the pro-Palestinian #protest encampment that was set up at the VIU quad early Tuesday morning.

The statement did not give a reason for the increased #restrictions.

Thanks to @msquebanh for the idea and example. Here is the rough outline of #gaza (perimeter 110km and area 636sqkm) superimposed on #VancouverIsland, facing the City of #Vancouver #yvr. It runs from Lantzville (North #Nanaimo) to Chemainus. Imagine the people of Vancouver ‘facing' that horror, that deseruction, that genocide, within sight across the Salish Sea.

Glad to be on the bus again. I have had to drive all the way in every day this week and it's exhausting. I just wish they would make a proper commuter bus from Qualicum/Parksville so I only had to drive for 30min instead of 45-60. Better yet, how about that train line so we can dump the 2nd car completely? 🚆

Rain is intensifying in Port Alberni and there is some wind here in . Current rain rate at Alberniweather HQ: 9.4mm/hr. The rain and thick cloud has made it so dark outside that the street lights have turned on! Can see them downtown (to the right) on the webcam. 16mm rain total. This should rise faster now.

Fun Fact: The only reason I am at work 20min before sunrise on this Day of Our Lord November 3, 2023 is because about 50 years ago some guy wanted to sell more hotdogs for the BBQ.
