Town of Comox announces discontinuation of X account

People looking to stay up to date with things going on in Comox will have to find something other than the X app. 

The Town passed a motion at their June 4 council meeting to stop using the account on the app formerly known as Twitter. 

The Town will instead enhance their presence on other social media accounts, including the creation of a Bluesky account. 

The move follows other recent shifts by local governments around Vancouver Island, including the Comox Valley Regional District (CVRD). 

Relevant updates and information will still be posted on their social media platforms, while people who don’t use social media are encouraged to continue checking the town’s website for the latest updates and municipal information.
