I watched a couple of videos today on the Olympics and was surprised to hear that 36% of the Vancouver voters said no to the games. Obviously 64% wins so I’m curious about the Olympics bid in general. How many of the obligations set out in the bid package have been met met? Is there way we, the public at large, can see the package details? I want to know what they said about environmental practices leading up to the Olympics, about land usage, and about taxpayer dollars contributing to this mega project.
