A fuel pump full of SOUR GRAPES to our gas stations that keep the prices so high, at least two to seven cents per litre higher than up the valley.
– Grumble
A cap full of SWEET CHERRIES to Donald Lowndes for picking up garbage every day at Lion’s Park. That shows true dedication to the community.

A stage full of SWEET CHERRIES to all of the youth who put on a great talent show during the Sunshine Festival. Oliver has definitely got talent.

A bowl of SWEET CHERRIES to the Oliver Masons for raising money to buy bikes for kids who read. What a great incentive in the schools and a thoughtful gesture by this service club.

A bunch of SOUR GRAPES to the Town for planning the closure of the roadway behind the Oliver Legion. I use that road a lot to access Highway 97 on the way home from work. It’s a safe road that provides a much-needed route for motorists.
