‘I appreciate everyone': Community rallies after husband and father's terminal diagnosis

FORT ST. JOHN, B.C. — A Fort St. John woman is applauding the support of the community in the face of her family's heartbreak. Britany Gould and her husband, Tony Lloyd, have been together for 11 years and share two children. Gould told that Lloyd, an oil and gas industry worker, began 'experiencing headaches' and 'forgetting things' in late March, but at the time the couple didn't think much of the situation. 'He started saying that he had really bad neck pain,' said Gould. 'He thought that his neck was [just] out and he needed to go to the chiropractor. 'Then, late at night-time, he started actually getting sick and getting really confused and not knowing what's going on. His balance was quite off. So I ended up having to call the ambulance.' Rushed to Fort St. John Hospital, an MRI scan revealed the grim prognosis: glioblastoma, a fast-growing brain tumour. Lloyd was airlifted to hospital in Vancouver, where the couple spent three weeks. While surgery was performed, only 'a small portion' of Lloyd's tumour could be removed. 'The brain is such a sensitive area and a lot of it was intertwined,' explained Gould. 'It wasn't just sitting on top that they could just kind of pop it off. [The doctors] did say there was a possibility for him to get chemo and radiation down the line.' After spending three weeks in the hospital, Lloyd and Gould flew back to Fort St. John to be closer to home. Unfortunately, further tests revealed the brain tumour had grown, and as a result, Lloyd has lost his eyesight. Doctors in Prince George revealed chemo and radiation therapy was not an option. 'I'm in the hospital with him six to eight hours a day, every single day,' said Gould. 'It's hard thinking about what he's going through and what he's experiencing.' Gould started a GoFundMe campaign in May hoping to raise $5,500, and it has already reached $4,525. Local businesses have stepped up and raised funds to assist the family. Local food vendor Lucas's Pit Stop has raised money via a jar at events at the Northern Lights Raceway. Its last event catered by the establishment raised $1,200. In addition, Audielicious in Fort St. John began a burger drive on May 29th, with $5 dollars from every burger sold going toward the family until June 8th. Gould and owner Audie Louie worked together at Charlie Lake's former Jackfish Dundee Pub in the past and are close friends. 'Everyone's been so sweet. It actually takes a bit of a burden off my shoulders, especially for a little while,' said Gould. 'I can take care of Tony, I can take care of the kids. I really want to spend as much time with them, just give them all the attention that they need and deserve. 'Everyone's just been amazing beyond words. I appreciate everyone.'

The Future of Wellness in an AI World

AI Is Redefining Consumer Expectations, Even in the Nutraceutical Sector. Brand Strategies Should Adjust, Too. FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla., June 2, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Trends in AI are shaping the next era of health and wellness marketing. The power of artificial intelligence to personalize, predict, and engage with consumers is creating a new set of standards when it comes to distributing and marketing nutraceutical products. TruLife Distribution CEO Brian Gould sees the impact — and he is keen to take advantage of the opportunities it is creating for his clients. AI isn't a new trend in retail. Back in May 2023, one study from GenAI Chat Cloud company found that 73% of marketers were already using AI tools — and 43% of them were seeing double ROI or more on the investment. Thought leaders at the time were already pointing out AI's use in retail spaces (including the health and wellness sector). Fast forward two years, and AI's place in the wellness world has only become more entrenched. "AI is here to stay," said Brian Gould. Gould is the founder and current CEO of the health and wellness marketing and distribution agency TruLife Distribution. "AI isn't a magic bullet," he clarified. "It's a tool, just like all other tech. And when you can see its value and implement it in the right ways, it can empower even the smallest nutraceutical manufacturer or wellness service provider to amplify and target their marketing efforts like never before." One way this is possible is through personalization. While personalized automations have been around for years, AI takes it to the next level. One example of this came in March, when Michael Anthonavage, VP of Innovation at Vitaquest, explained how the nutraceutical giant leans on partner-driven consumer data and AI-backed insights to align products with evolving customer needs, behaviors, and preferences. Other reports have highlighted both the existing and potential impact of AI in nutraceutical research and development. AI has the power to help predict consumer trends and forecast demand through comprehensive and complex market insights that were previously difficult for anyone (let alone small businesses with limited budgets) to access. This can help even smaller or scaling nutraceutical manufacturers anticipate demand and adjust marketing strategies accordingly. Customer engagement is also benefiting from AI. Small operations can use AI tools such as chatbots and virtual assistants to answer basic consumer questions around the clock. AI can also boost consumer engagement through things like identifying influencers who align with trends, as well as repurposing content across multiple media and communication outlets. "AI is the tool of the future," Gould declared. "The key is figuring out how you can leverage it for success. That's why you want to work with a qualified partner like TruLife Distribution. Our team has the experience and industry awareness to help make the most out of every AI prediction and vet each datapoint. That combination of human experience and artificial intelligence makes it possible to match your strategy with current market conditions so you can optimize every penny you put into your marketing and distribution efforts." About TruLife DistributionTruLife Distribution is the brainchild of Brian Gould, whose extensive industry knowledge comes from both personal experience and familial expertise stemming from three previous generations of manufacturing and retail distribution professionals. His company has a robust brick-and-mortar distribution network, is run by a team of veteran professionals, and offers a full-service experience that includes sales, marketing, and distribution.

Irish Politician Hopes Netanyahu "Burns in Hell" For Burning Children in Gaza

Thomas Gould, Irish Member of Parliament, condemned Israel's genocide in Gaza, hoping that Netanyahu 'burns in Hell' for killing Palestinian children in Gaza, Irish media reported. 'I hope [Israeli Prime Minister] Benjamin Netanyahu burns in hell in the same way those children burned,' Gould told parliament. Gould described what is happening now in Gaza as 'not an atrocity in a war crime, it is just horrific. It is just horrific what they are doing.' 'Where is the soul of the Israeli people that allows their government to do this to children? Where is their humanity? The Irish people say we recognize Palestine. We recognize that they are human beings just like every one of us,' he added. 'Shame on Israel. Shame on what you have done and will never be forgotten,' Gould said during his impassioned speech. In 2024, Ireland officially recognized the Palestinian state amid Israel's ongoing devastating war against civilians in Gaza. @ahmed_hady_official النائب الأيرلندي أدلى بتصريحات قوية دعماً لغزة وانتقاداً للاحتلال الإسرائيلي، مؤكداً أن ما يحدث في غزة هو إبادة جماعية تتحمل إسرائيل مسؤوليتها بسبب سياساتها المستمرة من تطهير عرقي وحصار واحتلال. في مداخلته، أشار باريت إلى أن أيرلندا منذ بداية الحرب على غزة اتخذت موقفاً داعماً للفلسطينيين، داعيةً إلى وقف إطلاق النار ومحاسبة إسرائيل على الجرائم المرتكبة. كما طالب بفرض عقوبات دولية ومراجعة الاتفاقيات بين الاتحاد الأوروبي وإسرائيل للضغط على الحكومة الإسرائيلية للتوقف عن أعمالها في غزة. باريت شدد على ضرورة معالجة جذور المشكلة، وهي الاحتلال الاستعماري غير القانوني للأراضي الفلسطينية ونظام الفصل العنصري الإسرائيلي، بالإضافة إلى بناء المستوطنات غير القانونية والتجاهل الممنهج للحقوق الفلسطينية. كما أشار إلى ازدواجية المعايير لدى الولايات المتحدة والاتحاد الأوروبي، الذين دعموا أوكرانيا بكل أنواع الأسلحة والذخائر، بينما تنكروا للشعب الفلسطيني الذي يملك كل الحق في مقاومة الاحتلال. باريت أكد أن على العالم اليوم أن يتحمل مسؤولية وقف إسرائيل والولايات المتحدة عند حدهما، وتحميلهما تبعات رعاية الجرائم الإسرائيلية، داعياً إلى فرض عقوبات مشددة على إسرائيل لما ترتكبه من إبادة جماعية. #غزة #أيرلندا_مع_فلسطين #FreePalestine #الاحتلال_جريمة #دعم_غزة #أوقفوا_الإبادة #ضد_الصهيونية #فلسطين_قضيتنا #Gazagenocide #IrelandForPalestine #StandWithGaza #StopTheOccupation #غزة #FreePalestine #أيرلندا_مع_فلسطين #StopTheGenocide #فلسطين_حرة #IrelandStandsWithGaza #أنقذوا_غزة #EndTheOccupation #الحرية_لفلسطين #JusticeForGaza #StandWithPalestine #أوقفوا_الإبادة ♬ الصوت الأصلي – HADY45 🤵 Banning Trade with Israeli Firms Ireland's Foreign Minister Simon Harris has recently announced that his government seeks to obtain a formal decision to suspend trade ties with Israeli firms in the Palestinian territories, according to Financial Times. Harris stated in a post on X that Irish government is pushing forward a bill, known as the Occupied Territories Bill, next Tuesday, to halt relations with Israeli companies. He further expressed his hope that the Committee on Foreign Affairs would begin reviewing the bill in June. In this context, Harris also condemned Israel's devastating war in Gaza and its blockade of humanitarian aid since March. He also accused Israel of using food as a weapon of war against Palestinian civilians. 'The world has to act, and the world has not done nearly enough,' he added. Apart from this, Harris welcomed and supported the EU's recent remarkable move to review the EU-Israel Association Agreement. However, he noted that the review alone would not make a significant impact. Therefore, 'It needs to be more than reviewed. It needs to be suspended because it cannot be business as usual whilst this is being carried out in Gaza.' Since the beginning of Hamas-Israel War in Gaza in 2023, the Israeli strikes have killed more than 53,500 Palestinians and wounded more than 118,000, according to Gaza's Health Ministry.

When Gus talks, take it with a mountain of salt

The truck sailed through, straight ahead, right in front of us. 'It means, it's got its left blinker on.' Thus, when Gould said that, it was of mild note, perhaps, but it was Gould, and there is a track record of what he says about his own club's machinations not having a whole lot to do with what eventually happens. Remember back in 2022? 'Trent Barrett will be the coach of the Bulldogs long after I'm gone,' he said. Two weeks later, Barrett was gone. In similar fashion, he said Anthony Griffin's job at Penrith was safe – just before he was let go, too. Last year, Gould made flat-out denials that the Bulldogs had any interest in the Knights forward Leo Thompson, shortly before Kiwi international signed a four-year deal. Last year, Gould also denied reports in the media that Sitili Tupouniua had been signed by the club, but wouldn't you know it – just a week later, a four-year deal was confirmed. Then there are the 'secret meetings', where over the years Gould has shown up in grainy photos confirming his meetings with this player or that agent – it always being a matter of curiosity to me that such secret meetings have been held in public places. If you didn't know better, you'd swear that, for reasons of his own, Gould wanted those meetings known, as if, you know, he was a master media manipulator. All of that is why I didn't take Gould seriously when he said in April that his cashed-up club – which needed a brilliant playmaker of Galvin's ilk – actually had no interest in him. And whaddya know? This week, they signed him up. Gould's explanation for his volte-face was a classic of the genre. 'What happened this week,' he said, 'is the goalpost got moved incredibly, because all of a sudden we got a call on Tuesday from [his] manager [Isaac Moses] to say that there was a chance they were negotiating a release with the Tigers, and he would be available virtually now.' See? It was a complete rewriting of history. Gould would have you believe that back in April, it wasn't in the air that Galvin might leave the club immediately, which is complete and utter nonsense. At the time, he said the situation with Galvin and the Tigers was 'untenable,' which it clearly was. But now he says he really thought Galvin was locked up till the end of next year. I call bullshit. And I say that when Gould is speaking about the intentions of his club, it means only that Gould is speaking about the intentions of his club. No more, and no less. If it actually reflects what those intentions are, I take it as a coincidence. Now, when my colleague Michael Chammas more politely called him on his most recent about-face on 100% Footy on Monday night, Gould had the hide, the absolute hide, to turn nasty, attack Chammas and the media, saying 'most of our issues are created by the gibber in the media ... You say a lot of things that just aren't true. You say a lot of things that are exaggerated. You exaggerate what's going on and that makes it difficult for us.' Cry me a river, Phil! And he did. 'What I do know,' Gould added, 'is there is not another CEO, not another general manager or recruitment manager that has to sit on a panel and answer these questions.' Phil, you're breaking our heart! Are you on that panel at the point of a gun, or because you are being paid hundreds of thousands of dollars to be there? No, Phil. You mind your words. Your constant attacks on the media ... are tedious and insulting. And you want to whinge about having to answer questions about having told obvious porky-pies? He even told Chammas to, get this, 'mind your words, son'. No, Phil. You mind your words. Your constant attacks on the very media that you have been a leading part of for three or four decades are tedious and insulting. They might wash if you had an unending record of telling the truth, come what may, but you don't. Chammas was careful to say, 'I am not questioning your credibility'. Well, I certainly am. In the realms of complaining about mistruths being published in the media, you don't have any credibility, Phil. Pull your head in. Son. Marbles king out to regain the crown As if you could ever forget, back in 2018, TFF broke the story about how one Damian Farrell was runner-up in the Australian Marbles Championship in 2018 in Brunswick Heads, and went one better in 2019. He then remained UNDEFEATED all the way through to 2023 – helped by a couple of COVID-19 cancellations, but still. And then, of course, last year, the fall. He had always been told that one day, a younger, faster, gun-slinger would come along, but never believed it, until the 14-year-old schoolboy, Santiago Villanueva, from the wrong side of the border, (a bloody Queenslander!) turned up, and took him down. Well, Damian is coming back, do you hear me? Refusing to bow to his betters, my man Damo has been carbo loading all year in preparation for next Saturday when the 2025 championship will play out from 10am to 2pm in Banner Park, Brunswick Heads. Billy the Kid must fall! Old Wyatt Earp to win! Will report back. TFF has a deal with Farrell who – by complete coincidence – is also the organiser of the Championships. But it means you can ONLY read your news of the Australian Marble Championships, here! What They Said Susie Pearl, wife of former Canberra, Sydney Roosters and Cronulla star Todd Carney, on realising before their first date that Carney was the same one who had done the infamous 'bubbler': 'Who doesn't do that crap? My brother-in-law at the time had done it, and I wasn't fazed by it.' Exactly! Nothing to see here, officer. Move on! A Manchester United fan, not happy with their goalie after 'Our Ange' guided Totttenham Hotspur to the 1-0 win in the final of the Europa League: 'I'd rather have a bloody dildo in goal, at least it moves.' Charming. Iga Swiatek on how she prepares at the French Open: 'Usually I don't go out right before the match, so I just go to the park, do some Lego, read a book. I don't watch too many TV shows because then I have weird dreams!' Good thing she hasn't watched Adolescence. Have you seen it? Powerful, but . . . Coco Gauff, after going on court at the French Open without her racquets: 'Honestly, I thought they put the racquets in the bag, and my side court bag is filled with drinks and everything. So it felt like I had enough weight. And then I got on court, and I opened the first zipper. I was like, 'OK, no racquets.' The second zipper, I was like, 'Oh my God. I went on court with no racquets'.' Terry Bradshaw doesn't want his old team, the Pittsburgh Steelers, to sign 41-year-old Aaron Rodgers: 'That's a joke. That to me is just a joke. What are you going to do? Bring him in for one year, are you kidding me? That guy needs to stay in California. Go somewhere and chew on bark and whisper to the gods out there.' Novak Djokovic on finally winning his 100th title, joining Jimmy Connors and Roger Federer as the only men's players to do so: 'I'm just grateful to clinch the 100 here. I had to work for it, that is for sure.' Ange Postecoglou to the fans after the Europa League win: 'A ll the best TV series, season three is better than season two.' Ange, a little later: 'I should have thought about it a bit more because sometimes they kill off the main character.' Rafael Nadal: 'I don't miss much tennis because I feel that I've given all what I had. I arrive today with the peace that I can't be on court. You know, my body doesn't allow me to be on court. So that's all. I am at peace.' Donald Trump on hosting the World Cup and the Olympics in his second term: 'We have the World Cup, and we have the Olympics. I have everything. Amazing, the way things work out. God did that – I believe that.' The mind boggles. Naomi Osaka after her first-round French Open loss: 'As time goes on, I feel like I should be doing better. But also – I kind of talked about this before, maybe a couple years ago, or maybe recently, I'm not sure – I hate disappointing people.' Osaka, on her current coach Patrick Mouratoglou, who used to work with Serena Williams: 'He goes from working with, like, the greatest player ever to, like, 'What the (expletive) is this?' You know what I mean? Sorry for cursing, I hope I don't get fined.' Olympic great Ariarne Titmus on the 'Druggie-Dome', Enhanced Games: 'I've never been motivated by money. If they offered me $10 million, I would never put my body through that. I've got a pretty strong stance on this. I'm not afraid to speak out on it. It doesn't sit well with me morally.' Panthers coach Ivan Cleary, when asked how they could move off the bottom of the ladder: 'Win games.' Team of the Week Arsenal. Won the Women's Champions League final with Australians Steph Catley, Caitlin Foord and Kyra Cooney-Cross in the squad Panthers and Swans. Both already have seven losses. That's as many as the Panthers suffered all of last season, while the Swans only had six. Melbourne City - Melbourne Victory. Meet Saturday night in the first A-League Men derby grand final.
