Westham Island Bridge Repair Update
January 22, 2026

Delta, BC – Earlier this week, a marine vessel hit the Westham Island Bridge, causing damage that required the bridge to be closed to vehicle traffic. TransLink owns and maintains the bridge, and crews moved quickly to assess the damage and pursue the fastest possible repair.

TransLink has now received an updated assessment from our structural engineer following today’s inspection work.

Iceland Air flights ICE43E, ICE615, and ICE623 are flying over southern Quebec (almost to Vermont) right now. They took off from KEF within 4 minutes of each other, and it looks (from the tracker) like they're flying in a formation of sorts.
(They have different destinations.)
I've never noticed this before. Seems weird.
(I first noticed on my radio-powered ADS-B tracker, but they're on FlightRadar24 etc.)

Researchers on an Antarctic expedition found the virus ravaging these powerful seabirds, with some suffering severe neurological symptoms—twisted necks, circling behavior, and even falling from the sky. While penguins and fur seals were examined, skuas emerged as the primary victims, especially on Beak Island, where a mass die…

The Western military alliance is expected to launch "Arctic Sentry", three people with knowledge of the plans said,
in a move to deter foreign adversaries in the high north.

US Pr…
