Blog Watching, Week Ending July 6, 2014


As part of a weekly feature on the blog, every Sunday we offer up this weeks recap of the top five items viewed over the course of the last seven days.

Included in the countdown, we will provide links to the articles in question, offering up with one click of the mouse, those items of the week that you may have missed.

This week,  more fall out from the cutbacks in service to BC Ferries on the Northern and Central Coast routes, as tourism operators in the Cariboo outline their concerns.

The remainder of the week found much interest in the prospect of the Maher Terminal operation being sold by its parent company. Readers also made popular our items on the search for suspects in a downtown Break and Enter at the Belmont Liquor store, the prospect of an LNG terminal for Digby Island and an ongoing search for investors for a Dairy Queen restaurant for the city.

Kicking off the top five items, the impact of Ferry cuts far from the North Coast.
