Roses
- Roses to staff at the Peace Arch Hospital emergency ward. Thank you to the nurses and doctors who were so very attentive. They were so thorough and had time for my case. We loved how everyone smiled and acknowledged us. We were so very impressed by our experience there.
- A huge bouquet of long-stemmed fragrant red roses to the lady who jump-started my car in front of the Sears in Guildford on a Saturday afternoon. I’m eternally grateful to you!
- A rose to my lovely wife, whose birthday we celebrated on Tuesday.
- Bouquets of roses to my mom, Carol Daugherty, who has proved herself to be an unwavering pillar of support for me, time and time again. Love you mom.
- Roses to those who know how to practice – and spread – positivity. The world needs more people like you.
- Infinite roses to the people administering naloxone to people overdosing in our community. These include firefighters, outreach workers, shelter staff, and more. They are saving countless lives and don’t get the public kudos they are so deserving of.

Rotten Tomatoes
- A bath tub full of rotten tomatoes to my neighbour who, during this entire winter, did not clear any snow from the full flight of stairs his family uses every day. Put the beer down and be a man and take care of your family. (Ooh, that felt good to get out.)
- Rotten tomatoes to Linda Hepner and her co-horts on city council for giving a go-ahead to cut down so many majestic trees along 100th Avenue. You are so narrow minded, and your thoughtlessness is incomprehensible. Shame on all of you. I want to see you all dismissed from your positions! You don’t deserve to represent the citizens of Surrey!
- Rotten tomatoes to greedy landlords, realtors and land speculators who helped contribute to the current housing mess. I bet you never paid a dime of tax on any of the homes you flipped or that you are renting out. It’s all cash. I also would like to say the government should get splatted with a couple of those rotten tomatoes too, for letting this happen.
- Rotten tomatoes to the man who jumped out of his truck, banged on my mother’s car and yelled at her because he thought she hadn’t pulled onto the sensor at the traffic lights. Hope you feel good about yourself for frightening an 83-year-old lady.
