Bah, those crime stats sound like just another week in Vancouver. We got druggies and druggies like to steal stuff.
I gotta say, this town has taken to the games like a hobo to a ham sandwich: people are lining up for hours (for a good ole TSA-esque security grope) to get into the non-ticketed places like Livecity, and even for the honor of paying a twenty frigging dollar cover to get into Irish House. The bar at the Atlantic Canada House, I am pleased to report, charges a respectable $5.75/pint rather than the new norm of $8-9.
ION, some of these fuckers are charging $9 a beer! Sacrilege!
