CRIMES AGAINST THE PUBLIC


Some simple facts for the jury to consider.

One-fifth of Vancouver traffic can usually be found on the Patullo Bridge. Not today, of course.

With the bridge out of commission, the Board of Trade estimates a $2 Billion annual loss in biz.

Telus is telling 2,000 of its employees to stay at home and log on.

Dianne Watts is telling Surrey employees to work funny hours.

One Premier after another has had 40 years to consider replacing this barely standing joke. No one has even come close.

Can you say, "Malfeasance, Boys and Girls? Incompetence? Willing Blindness?"

MAY I SEE THE MANAGER, PLEASE?


Vancouver City Hall will "take over" the Olympic Village.

Vancouver will issue special Olympic municipal bonds.

Some of you will actually buy these things.

Won't this all be fun!

Selling Your Soul for a Mess of Pottage/Portage/Porridge


Mama Malaika's Snake Oil Serum - known otherwise as Cold-fX - is now an official Olympic sponsor.

Hahahahahahaha...

This is a case study in How to Degrade Your Brand by Associating with Garbage.

The target sponsorship budget for the Games is $760 Million.

The utterly unproven Cold-fX is contributing $3 Million to become the Official Cold & Flu Remedy.

Has VANOC ever considered the word, "No?"
