White Rock RCMP are requesting the public’s help in identifying a male involved in an assault. On April 11th, 2025 at approximately 4:15 p.m. at North Bluff Road and Johnston Street an unknown male exited his grey coloured SUV and assaulted two elderly pedestrians who were in a marked cross walk. The assault was serious enough to send one of the victims to the hospital with lacerations on their head. The male fled in his vehicle prior to police arrival.
The suspect male is described as: Caucasian / 5'10 / 45-50 years old
• Wearing a light coloured shirt and grey pants.

I attended today's (Thursday) Black Balloon Day memorial at Miramar Plaza organized by Tides of Change - South Surrey/White Rock Community Action Team.
Family and friends gathered to remember loved ones lost to the opioid crisis.
Now in its tenth year, this healthcare crisis shows no sign of ending.
An average of six BC residents a day are lost to accidental overdoses, many of them young men in trades.

The Hardest Working Building in White Rock
In 1922 the Surrey Police department petitioned Surrey Council to build a holding cell and Police substation in White Rock. The result was a building at the foot of the pier that would end up being one of the most diversely used buildings in White Rock.
In the early 1930s the White Rock Library moved into the building and shared it with the police department until 1951. In the early 1960s the Chamber of Commerce took over the building and it became a tourist information centre as well as a gallery used by the local Council of Women and the White Rock Painting and Sketch Club. In 1980 a new public washroom was built on the site.
In its 55 years it had been a jail, morgue, library, bathroom, meeting hall, tourist centre, and art gallery.
Quite a career for such a humble little building!

In its final version as the Chamber of Commerce Tourist Information centre the local Council of Women, and the White Rock Painting and Sketch Club used the building extensively.

TNT The Naked Truth
March 9, 2026
It's About Time
I have been writing my weekly The Naked Truth in the White Rock Sun for over 15 years and during that time I have often penned about how ridiculous the entire notion of time change was. Once you delve into the history, reasons and rationale behind it, plus discover what portions of the world do not use the twice yearly time change, you realize how idiotic and stupid the entire practice really is. After writing three or four columns on the topic, I finally threw my hands up in disgust and decided that I would not waste my time (pun intended of course) writing another TNT on the topic. The reason for this was that I was getting so worked up about it I figured I'd have an aneurysm, stroke or heart attack if I kept beating this dead horse. With my luck it would have been all three at once to ensure I was put out of my misery.
