I'm using Voyager and the search function is awesome. I stopped using Jerboa a long time ago and I don't remember exactly why.

More than $485 million in illicit drugs and drug ingredients seized in rural B.C. community

Some excerpts:

According to police, the amount of fentanyl and other materials seized would have amounted to more than 95,500,000 potentially lethal doses and worth an estimated $485 million in profit.

The "superlab" was located in the community of Falkland, B.C., an unincorporated community about 50 kilometetres east of Kamloops.

The Mounties say the bust is a "decisive blow" to those who organized it and that in addition to the facility in Falkland, several locations in Surrey were also searched.

Aside from the drugs, which included 54 kilograms of fentanyl, 390 kilograms of methamphetamine and 35 kilograms of cocaine, police also seized 89 firearms, several small explosives, body armour and $500,000 in cash.

Pretty sure it says "Have you tried turning it off and on again?"

It's hard to understand without the associated hand gestures though.

(Edit to add in seriousness: yes, the first part says it can't pop up the integrated flash, second part says try restarting the camera, I think)

Interesting idea! Since everyone in the city was a sports fan and participated in the riots, and of course everyone participating in the riots was from the city, it totally makes sense.

Yeah, weird. But Larson wasn't necessarily the one doing the colour versions. He probably did the original in black and white.

There are a few vendors set up, but not like other times I've been here.

It looks like there is a market inside the grounds, but I'm not interested in paying over $100 to shop for local crafts...
