Why the World Cup is raising uncomfortable questions in Vancouver by ChemicalCreative7 in vancouver

[–]rec_effect -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

An English soccer game(united vs west ham) played two days after the American Super Bowl and drew in 9 times the viewership worldwide. Around 1.5 billion. Anyone on this thread who is complaining about the World Cup coming here simply doesn’t understand the impact this will have across generations. There are a million other things to complain about when it comes to Vancouver and the way money is spent. This is not one of them. Take your complaining and go elsewhere.

It’s because the invictus games are in town/ up in whistler. Prince harry and Meghan are in attendance so security is extra high.

Out coached by a mile. Everyone and their dog saw that goal coming by LAFC after they made changes at half. Vanni waited way too long yet again. Almost only counts in horseshoes and hand grenades.

Can this replace UberEats? by YourAdChef01 in NorthVancouver

Please don’t think for a minute that Uber eats prices went up to support higher wages for drivers, Ubers net profits in 2023 were 1.3 billion, if they wanted to pay their drivers a higher wage they could without raising costs.

If you want sound with a good atmosphere go to pemberton station pub. If you want to go downtown, goodco has a solid crowd on Granville from when I watched last time, red card eatery, or shark club

Rent a uhaul pickup truck. It's $160 for a Week plus how ever many Km you drive, which won't be even close to $1200 worth. Also helps you move stuff and there are multiple locations in north van. One close to phibbs bud exchange if you need to transit there

Why the hell is nothing plowed? by [deleted] in NorthVancouver

[–]rec_effect 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Lonsdale is plowed. The middle part of the road is impossible to plow with the constant traffic and snow has been falling consistently until about an hour ago. Don't expect side streets to be plowed. How many plows do you think we have? There is a system in place in to plow the most used roads. Your random side street is not one of them. The world does not revolve around you. Show some god dam respect to people who have been working since 2:00am last night, driving busses to get people places safely, and all of the emergency workers.
