Life under lockdown was hard for all of us. From economic destruction to social isolation, the costs of restrictive government policies intended to mitigate the spread of COVID-19 have been steep.

Those closest to the two century-old Catholic churches that were razed by fire Monday morning are in disbelief and anger. "The Penticton Indian Band Leadership and community were shocked to discover our church was destroyed in a fire early this morning. We, along with the Osoyoos Indian Band, who also lost their church (Oliver area) are in disbelief and anger over these occurrences as these places of worship provided service to Members who sought comfort and solace in the church," reads a statement from the Penticton Indian Band released Monday afternoon, June 21.

The last time a major central bank knowingly tried to end a low-rate policy regime occurred in Japan in the late 1980s. Since then, no central banker has wanted to repeat this unhappy experience.
