For 40 years, Burlington's Sound of Music Festival was an institution in the downtown core. This year may have been its last. Does the City of Burlington want to keep or lose it? We ask Ward 2 Councillor Lisa Kearns.

Marineland claimed that the Federal government would put the remaining beluga whales in its custody in jeopardy by blocking their sale to China. @chrisbittle.bsky.social says otherwise.
