Well it's official now! BC Lions will definitely be in the Grey Cup next weekend. They will be facing the Winnipeg Blue Bombers in what is certain to be one of the most police monitored sporting event ever. Given the recent misadventures in Vancouver after the dreadful loss of the Canucks after the Stanley Cup final was over. It would be prudent of both the Municipal and Provincial governments to get together and make a decisive plan on how to handle the crowds that will be celebrating/partying/after game in the downtown core. I highly doubt that the Vancouver Council (now recently (r)elected yesterday) will want another smear on the Vancouver Tourism face. One more blow like the riot in June would undoubtedly label us as a 'violent' city and lower us as a desirable vacation location.
My comments to the citizens of British Columbia are simple, easy and direct. Don't be stupid, Don't give in to inflammatory situations, Don't and I repeat DON'T RIOT!!! Nothing is worth losing your dignity, self respect and freedom over. Remember at the end of the day, it is a game and there will always be another one
To the police I beg you to plan ahead and prepare for the worst and hopefully receive the best.
Vancouver is a beautiful city, flawed at times but beautiful. Let's keep it that way!
Go Lions Go!
