Residents will get up-to-date information on the Comox Valley through a new E-newsletter.
The Comox Valley Regional District has announced they’re launching a montly e-newsletter that looks to provide accurate information on what is happening in your community, including projects and services.
The newsletter’s goal is to encourage more respectful communication in the region.
District board chair Will Cole-Hamilton says they not only want to support trusted sources of information but also provide more chances to directly communicate with you.
“Unfortunately, certain social media platforms have become outlets for misinformation and disrespectful commentary, so we are moving in another direction,” said Cole-Hamilton.
The district says the e-newsletter is part of several changes to communication, which includes discontinuing paid advertising on Meta products, restricting all comments on Meta products, and closing their Twitter account.
Instead of Twitter, the district will launch an account on BlueSky @comoxvalleyrd.
