Top Stories of the Week

It’s always interesting to see what the readers of Energeticcity.ca are most interested in the region. Sometimes it’s a big decision impacting property taxes, and sometimes it’s a new restaurant coming to town. Here are the top stories for the week of July 2 to 8, 2023:

1. Local Hockey Player Agrees to Terms with Vancouver Canucks: Fort St. John native Tristen Nielsen has agreed to terms with the Vancouver Canucks on a two-year, entry-level contract. 
2. Update on Hudson’s Hope Crash: last Friday, we shared the sad story of a vehicle incident near Hudson’s Hope that resulted in the death of an 18-year-old. On Wednesday, we received an update from the RCMP with more details.
3. Man Arrested in Taylor: following an incident at Peace Island Park. The report also stated the man was half-naked and possibly under the influence of an intoxicating substance while in a vehicle.
