Support 2 - life in Downtown Vancouver

That's why i don't get people in Vancouver. The Vancouver Sun Run was yesterday and it is one of the largest 10k run in the City. It happens every year and It often attracts a crowd of 50,000 runners to the city. Needless to say, I hear some of my facebook friends whine about the noise and every thing else every year.

The same people would whine about how loud people get when the Vancouver Canucks win a game. The Downtown Vancouver is branded as the entertainment district by the city because of the poor execution of the transit. The hub of the transit system is down town Vancouver and people can get there easily. That's why people often use Downtown as a place to meet for fun and drinks.

It is also funny that the Whiners will defend their position on the blog. It is true that they are the resident, but they also live in the middle of a play ground. I am all for respecting the resident of the city, but some of them want the same quiet life that the suburbs offer.

The also defend the life in down town is easier because they can walk to see their friends and enjoy a drink or two in the local bars. I don't care about that because they claim that they are living a green life as they don't pollute the air. These people need to get a clue how other people live and stop telling me that they are superior human being.

The city is doing a lousy job in planning the city because they just want people to move into a shoe box of a place. The life of living in a 2 bedroom house with a yard is gone with these city folks. Although I am no fan of living in a house that requires constant upkeep, but living in a 600 sq ft condo is no way to live.

It is because there are plenty of land in the Vancouver's suburb, but people are not wanting to live outside of the city limit because the communication among the municipalities are poor. They often just like to grow their little piece of land and don't want to work together to solve a bigger problem. There is a population of 2 million people in the General Vancouver area, and we have about 15 city governments to run the place. I live in Port Moody and we have 30,000 resident.

I don't pity the people in Vancouver.
