Board index Vancouver Forum


Vancouver forum is an open forum which daily sketches the diversity and the commonality of Vancouverites. It is also an online community where you can discover and discuss various aspects of life in Vancouver and the world at large. If you are a visitor or a soon-to-be resident of Vancouver, or simply have an interest in it, you are more than welcome to join the group of Vancouver Forum posters, but know that any questions you may have about the city and its neighborhoods, the quality of life and lifestyle, are likely going to be met with a barrage of insults by some our resident comedians.

If you are a Vancouverite who just stumbled upon these pages, you'd best get the hell out of here before anyone sees you, but if you do decide to join in, for God's sake don't tell them your ethnicity or you may never hear the end of it! Do not be surprised by uncensored and sometimes blatantly stupid, crazy, remarks that shouldn't ever be spoken in private, let alone on a public forum. If that still hasn't deterred you, then you probably have a thick enough skin and a good enough sense of humour to handle this place. Good luck. You're going to need it!

I'm going to watch this later on, Doc, when I come back to the village after my outing this evening. I missed the opening because I was out with my family to see The Dark Knight...

Olympic swimming event gold causes concern once again who's been gene doping and who's not. Even though the candidate passed the existing test there is sufficient concern yet as to whether its been revised to current standards today. The general consensus is that its antiquated and useless by todays standards, a joke in fact.

Olympic organizers resolutely defended the teen.

“We need to get real here,” said International Olympic Committee spokesman Mark Adams. “These are the world’s best athletes competing at the very highest level. We’ve seen all sorts of records broken already all over the place.”

Adams said the top five athletes in each event, plus two others, are tested as part of “a very, very strong drug-testing program, and we are very confident if there are cheats we will catch them.”

“We can’t stop speculation. It is inevitably a sad result of the fact that there are people who dope and who cheat,” Adams said.

“It’s very sad we can’t applaud a great performance. Let’s give the benefit of the doubt to the athletes.”

Julio Maglione, the president of swimming’s governing body, FINA, told The Associated Press that people are free to say “stupid things” if they want.

“It’s a big mistake,” Maglione said, dismissing Ye’s doubters as “crazy.”

He said FINA spends $1 million to drug test the top 30 swimmers in the world two or three times a year and the sport is “absolutely clean.” He said that he has absolutely no suspicions about Ye and that her critics are jealous because China is becoming a swimming power.

Ye is known for her large hands and feet, but otherwise she’s smaller than other swimmers at 5 feet 7 inches and 141 pounds.

“One of the interesting things about swimming is people don’t swim the same way,” said Bob Bowman, coach for U.S. star Michael Phelps. “They have to swim the way their body is made, so that’s what she’s doing. She’s taking advantage of her size.”

Of her swim on Saturday, he added: “The girl has good technique. She had an amazing last 100, but people do amazing things sometimes.”

Quebec Athletes Leading The Way For Canada

Quebec athletes make up just under a quarter of Canada's Olympic team, yet they won all of the country's first four medals in London.

A pair of bronze in synchronized diving, another bronze in judo and yet another bronze in women's weightlifting came from Quebec athletes in the first four days of competition.

Quebec can toot its own horn when it comes to Olympic sports. The province financially supports its athletes more than any other province.

Montreal's sports facilities are approaching world class, thanks to a multimillion-dollar renovation already underway to create a sport institute with the 1976 Olympic Games venues.

The only other two Canadian centres with sport infrastructure of similar quality are Calgary and Vancouver/Whistler, B.C.

Who's been gene doping and who's not?

The Chinese trying really hard to lose... get canned from Olympics.

All that doping, and for what? Say NO to drugs.
