Not sure if srs. My friend said BC's transit system sucks o_o

and aren't most of you guys not in the main core part of vancouver? I see locations such as Richmond and New Westminister

Your friend is wrong. Translink is much, much better than the TTC at the very least. Richmond, Burnaby, and New Westminister are very close to Vancouver. Burnaby is closer to the Vancouver core than say North York or Scarborough are to Toronto core. Not to mention Skytrain is much nicer than the TTC Subway! And you don't have to flip between 4 different transit authorities and fares to visit surrounding areas.

I cannot wait to be back in Vancouver!

Hey everyone, I'm gonna visit vancouver/ other BC cities near by on august 1st. Can you guys recommend some good sites/places to tour to?

I am meeting some business associates there and they want to see the top tier places that Canada (BC) has to offer. These people have never visited Canada before so where should I bring them to show them what BC is all about? (plz don't recommend things like sea world and stuff :( these people are srs business and not children even though i'd fully enjoy sea world and all the great seaness that there is to see in the world of sea)

The biggest draws to Vancouver are the beaches, mountains, and parks I would say. Are you looking at suggestions for business lunches / dinners, casual drinking, or just straight up tourist attractions to take pictures at?

Wow nice. This transit system does sound pretty good. Thanks for the input everyone. I like how you don't have to switch companies between cities.

Do you guys all know Peter Chao? I really want to meet him when I go to vancouver lol.

Aww =[ Maybe I'll even attend a Smash tournament again for fun once I'm back from Ontario! Haven't Smashed in ages. Completely lost interest in Melee and Brawl. Don't think I'll play competitively even when the WiiU and 3DS ones come out although I'll definitely play them. I can really only afford one competitive game and that's gonna be Pokemon =P

Eric how long are you in vancouver for?

I'm strongly considering hosting something at SFU on the 27th. I need some confirmation from people though, cause I don't want to do one if there's a bad turn-out or no TV's.
