## Capture limits

The full Facebook post was partly access-limited. NewsForBC preserved public OpenGraph metadata, the external-hit HTML, Mozilla fetch, `yt-dlp` no-video logs, and the available public image.

- Captures of BIV, CTV/CP, CityNews, B.C. Budget 2026 materials and Budget PDFs where accessible.

## Editorial standard

NewsForBC used an original news story format with sources at the bottom. The article labels the official `$1.46B`/`$292M` correction separately from opposition/First Nations concerns and from claims about intent.
