Seems like our fine govt. here in BC thinks that this is going to be great. Well our house prices have sky rocketed to the point that new ppl that r moving into the interior (this isnt even Vancouver) cannot even afford to buy anything because our wages dont meet the high cost of living here. There is a big boom in construction right now, and workers wanted everywhere. Im amazed that ppl could be out of work here due to the shortage on employees. What r ur thoughts and opinions on this topic? I feel we r going to be in a lot of trouble after the Olympics, the costs r going to be outrageous and we as tax payers r going to be footing the bill.

Trust me Denver, Colorado voted out the Winter, Olympics and all the above mentioned factors growth and outrageous prices in the Rockies happened any ways.

You all ready have the famous Whistler, B.C. and people know about this. Besides Salt Lake City made money from the Olympics do a better job of private funding. Ice Hockey tournament will be sold out.

Your city is on the Pacific Rim growth will still happen. Finally the huge Asian investment has nothing to do with the Winter Olympics.

am i able to start by using asserting Canada is the 2nd best usa interior the worldwide divided into diverse provinces and territories. British Columbia, the homestead of Vancouver and Whistler, is the westernmost province. Us Albertans had little or no to do with the Olympics, neither did Saskatchewan, Manitoba and so on. to respond to the question, specific, the Olympics are sucking hard, quite often because of fact of mom nature, this of path isn't plenty Vancouver’s fault as this is the IOC's Vancouver's climate is merely approximately consistently heat/wet in February, did they think of they have been going to get fortunate? The dying is/isn't Vancouver's fault. The dressmaker who designed the luge music has designed 6 useful Olympic tracks formerly with out deaths. Likewise Canadians, individuals and diverse different international places have been applying the music merely advantageous. I hate to be the bearer of undesirable information yet possibilities are high the crash became as a effect of the Georgian athletes inexperience and mis-calculation. The mechanical failing interior the outlet ceremonies became extremely embarrassing. much extra embarrassing became Wayne Gretzky's likely bored strategies-set as he became wearing the torch. Likewise C.O.C. attitudes in the direction of permitting different international places to prepare interior the venues has been extremely alarming. The Vancouver Olympic committee desperate they had to have the 1st "green video games", you recognize to bypass with all that environmental stress the worldwide is feeling at present, as such they desperate to bypass with unproven Olympia electric powered (extremely than flamable) powered zambonies. As we are able to be sure, that became not the ideal determination. I blame the pinko-commy-enviroterrorists. :D i'm not American so I watch the Olympics on CTV. can not answer you there. as quickly as lower back Canada isn't ruining the Olympics, blame the climate, blame the I.O.C., blame British Columbia yet do not blame Canada.

I was born in Vancouver, and have seen it grow over the past 100 years!!(lol) anyway, if the city does it right and calculates the cost involved and gets the buy-n from the community at large, it could become a very international city and that would be good for everyone. Cost of housing, etc... those happen all over the western world, not just there!
