Conservative budget rejected

The Conservative government’s budget was rejected immediately after its proposal on Tuesday. Minutes after finance minister Jim Flaherty tabled his budget all the opposition leaders voiced their disapproval. Liberal leader, Michael Ignatieff criticized the budget for not including the needs of ordinary Canadians. 


Two CUTV screens vandalized

Two CTV television screens were vandalized in the Hall building last week, and it will cost thousands to fix and replace them. One screen next to the People's Potato on the seventh floor was irreparably damaged by a magnet. Another screen on the fourth floor had its wiring ripped out, but it can and will be fixed, says the campus television station.

They say the total cost to fix and replace the screens will be $3,000. Program director Laith Marouf told CJLO that they will not use insurance to cover the costs in order to keep their premiums low.

David Dallas on the Phantastiq Cypha

In 2009 Doc Holidae went to Australia and all people kept telling him was: you need to see New Zealand. Unfortunately he could not make his way over there, but lucky for us New Zealand sent over a representative; David Dallas.

Now working with Duck Down, David is making his move to start a Kiwi invasion on this side of the ocean. His recent visit to SXSW has only helped increase the buzz and with that CJLO’s Phantastiq Cypha is excited to be on the David Dallas bandwagon. We’re not only supporting David as fellow child of the commonwealth but as legitimate fans of his music.
