These are raw transcripts unedited by me that I extracted possibly related to the groundstop, generated at time of posting:

  2143Z, 126.400 Victoria Ground (weak signal): "Yeah, we just uh communication issues, so we got the traffic stopped on [unintelligible]"

  2151Z, 134.800 Vancouver Centre, pilot of a flight ending "364": "We're saying they just have an alternate plan. They've been getting lower and lower 48 right now. We're on
  the phone with you, they are saying cannot show any reason why we would be out of communication to Seattle. So just otherwise we do have some alternates that we're talking
  about, but we just want to see, you see anything on your end that we cannot proceed to Seattle?"

  2152Z, 134.800 Vancouver Centre, same pilot: "Okay, sounds good. Yeah, we appreciate that. We'll be staying by and we'll just kind of get the alternate plans for ready to
  go. Thank you."

  2159Z, 121.075 Victoria Terminal, controller: "Seacraft 304, just a heads up here, there is a ground stop for an aircraft about into Vancouver at this time. I'm sure you
  have a VFR slot, seeing where you're headed there now, so I'd like to be still going to take you, but it just has stopped that you might end up getting turned around."
  
  2159Z, 121.075 Victoria Terminal, controller: "Sorry, that's all inbound aircraft, ground stop."
 
  2200Z, 121.075 Victoria Terminal, controller: "Yeah, it's not affecting anything airborne at this time. We're just about departing anything for Vancouver and Calgary at this
  time."

  2201Z, 126.400 Victoria Ground, pilot (weak signal): "Hey Ground, it's Jazz 270, and I'm guessing there's a flow for Vancouver."

  2203Z, 121.075 Victoria Terminal, pilot: "Uh just wanted to confirm uh there's a ground stop uh going into Vancouver on this frequency?"

  2203Z, 121.075 Victoria Terminal, controller: "Encore 3325, that's correct. Nothing is departing to land at Vancouver at this time."

  2204Z, 134.800 Vancouver Centre, pilot: "Yeah, right now they said normal ops continue, but we'll see what happens once we get closer."
 
  2217Z, 126.125 Vancouver Departure, pilot: "Yeah, you guys not having any of the issues that they're having in the US right now?"
 
  2217Z, 126.125 Vancouver Departure: "Uh, apparently the ones uh seeing ground stop for the 14 major airports I've just got a few minutes. Okay, thanks."

  2227Z, 126.400 Victoria Ground, pilot: "Encore 58, information Papa, requesting flow through to Vancouver for 2255." Reply: "Roger, 2255 on the flight plan."
