At this time, it sounds like any wave(s) we would get would be under 30cm, and would arrive in the Tofino area around 11:30pm tonight, and the South Island area after that. ~Shayne in the Newsroom
The Tsunami Advisory continues for Notification Zones A, B, C & D. Waves of less than 1ft (0.3m) are expected to reach #Tofino at 23:30 PDT. As waves reach the #BC coast, expect multiple waves over time. Stay out of coastal waters & away from beaches & harbors. More info: emergencyinfobc.gov.bc.ca/ev… #BCTsunami

Tomorrow’s top story: “Canucks Win First Cup, Local Man Promises To Be More Specific With Wishes” ~Shayne tsn.ca/ahl/abbotsford-canuck…
10pm: Victoria, NDP since 2006, goes Liberal.
Esquimalt-Saanich-Sooke: Also a Liberal win.
Cowichan-Malahat-Langford: Not called yet, but a healthy lead for the Conservatives.
All were NDP seats - a snapshot of their dropoff, resulting in Jagmeet Singh stepping down as leader.
9:00pm Victoria-area update:
Elizabeth May (Greens) projected to win Saanich-Gulf Islands.
Liberals lead Victoria and Esquimalt-Saanich-Sooke.
Conservatives lead Cowichan-Malahat-Langford.
~Q Newsroom #yyj
7:25pm: Local results still to come, but things are pointing towards a Liberal government. Still unclear if it would be a minority or majority, with many polls still to report. ~Q Newsroom
Still a few minutes left until local polls close, and we're starting to get more numbers in from the rest of the country - I'll have updates on the radio for you throughout the evening. ~Shayne in the Newsroom

There's a new version of this post
The Simpsons were wrong, sometimes you CAN make friends with salad!
Listener Martin in Youbou was mid-prep for their Super Bowl party, but an uninvited guest showed up early and gobbled up the veggie platters. At least the guac is safe!
