MULICULTURAL FESTIVAL : Multicultural Day made its annual return to Totem Hall on Saturday, bringing the community together to celebrate the diversity that defines the Sea to Sky region. Organized by the Squamish Valley Elders in collaboration with the Squamish Multifaith Association, Multicultural Day aims to highlight cultural traditions through food, music, crafts, and storytelling.

hile the U.S. tariffs have been on-again, off-again, one thing is certain: it can be crazy-making trying to figure out what all this means for Squamish. Feb. 3, U.S. President Donald Trump decided to delay imposing his tariff threat: 25% tariffs on exported Canadian goods and 10% on Canadian energy resources. But, given that Trump’s reprieve—and the pause on retaliatory tariffs—is only set to last for 30 days, anxiety and uncertainty lingers. Premier David Eby said on Feb. 3 that he was pausing a plan for countermeasures that included taking alcohol that hailed from Republican states off the shelves in B.C. liquor stores. At least for two Squamish leaders, meanwhile, coping with these uncertain times comes down to supporting each other with our spending power. For one local resident, this unprecedented moment is an opportunity to tackle our collective time change pet peeve.
