Show Notes
Vancouvers Park Board reduces lifeguard presence at five beaches, reassigning staff to busier spots and outdoor pools. Mayor Ken Sim expresses surprise, while Park Board chair Tom Digby attributes the move to budget cuts and inflation. Water safety advocates warn of increased risks without lifeguard supervision, as busier beaches and alcohol allowances could lead to more incidents. The Park Board plans to review staffing soon to ensure beach safety.
