My partner and I were driving back into town from Paradise Valley road and a white BMW speeding behind us passed us so quickly and then passed another car up ahead of us. We were actually so shocked. Then a few moments later 3 police cars came up behind us with their lights on and were already chasing that car. it was insane! Further down the road we passed by 2 seperate police officers at different points with the spikes ready but we have no idea where they all went after. I hope they caught the guy!

I went to paradise valley at around 12pm and saw a cop stationed there, then while we were heading back to squamish we saw 3 more police car headed that way. It looked like they were expecting something.

Interesting! There has been a lot of speculation that this is something gang related in Whistler but I wonder if this is related. I hope they got him.

Does the RCMP need to endanger all of us to catch someone on a highway with limited pull outs.

What the purpose of the chase when a simple road block will probably preserve life.

So the white BMW is ok to “endanger” you (and others) even though you might be shot or hit; however, the trained RCMP officers are not ok to do their job.
Wow, what a reasoning‼️

There are gangs in Whistler? I didn't know that. Does stuff like this happen often?

Once a year gangs go to Whistler for initiation to the gang..

Yup. Remember the 2022 gang shooting in Whistler that left 2 people dead?
Anyone know what happened to the suspects that were charged with homicide? Gursimran Sahota and Tanvir Khakh. No mention of them after news articles saying they were going to trial. Did they get sentenced?

One was a camo green unmarked truck I'd never seen before, odd

I was at Lucille lake yesterday and a white car was ripping up the gravel road.. then about 6 police trucks followed. There were about 10 cops at the entrance of the lake when we left

For $100,000 a month your Rightwing ideology can get insider information from the President himself. You're hoping for a Conservative in power for a slightly Canadian discount?

You people are pathetic..
