Oceanside Tonight is Vancouver Island's most committed fake news show.

Grant Marlowe anchors the small civic emergencies you didn't know you cared about — beach parking, geese with management energy, water restrictions, council language that means less the more you read it, and the entire Alberta-plate question.

We cover Parksville, Qualicum Beach, Nanoose, Errington, Coombs, and the wider Oceanside region with the seriousness it almost deserves.

Recurring segments

• Beach Watch — sacred civic emergencies on the waterfront
• Council Translator — bureaucratic fog into human language
• Goose Threat Level — nature-doc meets emergency broadcast
