Winter Olympics

There's been a lot of debate around this and I'm not really sure what to think. Will the the Olympics do good for the city of Vancouver or bring down the economy?

Olympics should help the local economy out but from what I have seen in the past, countries generally have lost money... This is the recent past I am talking about... I also heard that snow conditions at whistler/blackcomb have not been very good this year and they have had to rely very heavily on snow making machines to get the desired conditions... Vancouver is a beautiful city from what I have heard and I think should play a good host to the Olympics...

The Canadian military will be there...

You are wrong my friend. Conditions at whistler have been amazing and they could start the games today if they wanted. Its the conditions at Cypress mountain which is in North Vancouver that have been horrible. It is the host mountain to freestyle events.
