121	brian	waz		CA	Funding to any project is at the will of the people, via the government when they listen! The people of Vancouver have spoken... no more sour grapes. Deal with it. Good luck vancouver in the quest for the olympics. As a person who has been to a few, they're the most unifying event to bring a city, province and country together. Ask the people of Calgary, they'd have it again in a minute.
122	Dallas	Smith		CA
123	Justin	Katerberg		CA	yes, we need some good publicity in CANADA> 2010 olympics all the way

127	JENNY C.Y.	CHANG		CA	I "strongly"believe we shoud host the 2010 Olympic games in Vancouver. It will certainly promote our economy! People who oppose to them, I hope they can soon realize that it will benefit the economy as a whole. I know health care and other issues are important but if the government are not improving it yet why not find ways where the govt is trying to improve and that is our economy.(ie, Expo 86 was a great success) and I have confidence that the Olympic 2010 games will be the same!

131	arron	issec		CA	They are being tricked into bidding on something that may destroy their economy.
132	kanis	kalam		CA	Vancouver Olympics 2010 is a great opportunity for British Columbia, Canada. its true that the government finances are in dificit but still we can go for it. While the olympic will start, we'd have more percents of tourism who will come back again. its good for tourism industry and economy. thanks.
133	van	couver
134	Nastasy	Lenningrad		CA	Even though the 2010 olympics may generate economic growth, how will we live with the constant effects from it? Shouldn't the public get to have a stronger say about it? Why should it be the government's decision when the public will eventually have to pay for their decisions due to their stupidity?
135	Abuju	hfhgnbhflk	AL	US	fghaiudnfg yeah for it
136	chelsey	babuik		CA	olympics are good
137	Ryan	Glennon		CA	WE SHOULD BE PRIVILAGED TO HAVE THE 2010 WINTER OLYMPICS BECAUSE WE HAVE WATCHED ALL THE OTHER PLACES HAVE IT BUT IT IS NOW OUR TURN BECAUSE WE ARE SO SUITABLE TO HOST THE 2010 WINTER OLYMPICS
138	Ann	Cooper		CA	We have hug debts in B.C. and Canada. It is not only immoral to use funds that could be better spent on debt reduction or replacing some of our failing infrastructure but also totally irresponsible. I HIGHLY RESENT paying increasing direct and indirect taxes to support an extravagant party while the quality of life for all but the wealthiest of this country deteriorates by the day.
139	Canada	King		CA	Hello Global TV Vancouver, I would like to have one of your news researchers....call me in person at 250-336-2644... " Regarding the below email " My name is Canada Litter King, you may or may not know of me....I am " your environmental King " I don't want you to dismiss me as crazy....so I must convey....I was featured on the CTV on several occasions as a segment titles " Success Story ".... please investigate What this pertains to is.... For three years I have been pretty much begging for help in aid to help BC and Canada "slow the coures of Litter in our streets " enhance tourism prospects, promote pride, patriotism.... And I have done so, while my wife with the disease of MS and I are on low income disability welfare! I have smart creative ways to get people off welfare, restore pride, help BC from litter....and MR Campbell is shoning my requests....hiding behind those cabinet doors! My only source to lay out the facts and news is you people.... The below email is the latest from Mr Campbell.... I would like to follow this email up with others...but see where you stand! " I have so many news worthy questions " Relating to Pride, best interest of BC and Canadians....tax dollars on litter .....yet filth everywhere...people on welfare...yet work everywhere...as in filth needing clean up......Olympic promotion VS helping Canadian patriots like myself....bottom line....Priorities....for the best interest of our people Email below... Thank you for your email. I would like to join with all those who have commended you for your commitment and determination to keep Canadian communities clean. You have raised a lot of awareness and I think you have made many people more conscientious about garbage disposal and recycling. And, you are right, a clean community is a statement of pride and some people demonstrate a greater effort than others to properly dispose of their litter. You have asked that you meet with a member of Government in person to further discuss your mission. I would suggest you contact your MLA . If you are still living in Comox, that would be the Honourable Stan Hagen. His constituency office is located at 437 5th Street in Courtenay; the office phone number is 250-703-2422 and his email address is stan.hagen.mla@leg.bc.ca .. I can assure you that keeping BC beautiful is important to us and in the best interests of all people who live here. I know that local communities are doing a lot to encourage people to be more conscientious about their responsibilities as citizens to use garbage cans and recycling bins, to bring unused paint and tires to designated disposal locations etc. If you have some advice on how we can do better, please let us know. Sincerely, Gordon Campbell Premier -----Original Message----- From: Gordon.Campbell.MLA@leg.bc.ca [mailto:Gordon.Campbell.MLA@leg.bc.ca] Sent: February 24, 2003 8:43 AM To: premier@gov.bc.ca Subject: FW: BC Schoolyards / Environment -----Original Message----- From: Canada King [mailto:canadalitterking@hotmail.com] Sent: February 23, 2003 11:43 PM To: Campbell.MLA, Gordon Cc: canadalitterking@hotmail.com Subject: BC Schoolyards / Environment Dear BC Premier, and MLA'S, Mr Hagen, Mrs Murray..... Email forwarded to .... Canada Litter king, Stan Hagen, Joyce Murray, Gordon Campbell.... soon to BCTV, etc ? Anyhow, my legal name is Canada Litter King....legal name change in the year 2000.... If you have never heard of me....this will all seem stupid perhaps.... maybe you can take me serious if I tell you... I was featured several times on the Canada CTV news as a " Success Story " I am sending you this email..... that to advise, unless, I personally here, and am invited to meet in person, one of the three above! " Within or by Feb 28 " I will be invested countless hours of time to A) Go to BCTV and tell my story....how a Canadian Patriot can change his name to Canada...and do the mentioned below....and not have any help, in aid, or otherwise...to help his province and country! Furthermore....during the past month...I have put together my own picture....non bid booklet..... pictures of needles , and condoms , in our schoolyards, broken glass , etc.... In addition photos of senior protesters, and articles cut from a variety of sources relating to schools, health care, downtown eastside....and this well be submitted For you BC reps....to push this forward with huge promotional dollars and ignore...the growing filth in BC streets....and presume a occasional clean up will be ok..... is a non Canadian act...shameful....and not in the best interest of BC children or Canadians period...! To begin to showcase BC in its present economic state, and environmental condition....is absolutely obscene....and " could hurt BC future Tourism prospects " For a rather poor man like me, to take on and challenge a problem...." that you are suppose to govern " is surely disgraceful to taxpayers....and indeed it will come back to haunt you.... " unless you mature, and fix this problem.... My advise is to, have a little respect for patriots as myself....and honor my request to meet in person! If by chance you send me a 30 word nonscence email....it will indeed reinforce what I say below! Heres a interesting stat.... With a wife who has the Disease of Ms ...and two little girls ...while surviving on income assistance..... I can prove I invested over ten thousand dollars of money I made cleaning gutters on houses, windows....I invested ten thousand dollars over a period of three years ...into litter curbing ideas.... I have requested help from A_) Enviro Minister..B) Stan Hagen...C) GordO Campo,,,,only to recieve praise letters ...and basically ignoring the litter problem in BC I know without any question, I have enough dirt on the Liberals ignoring this proud canadina named Canada request.... I could shame and damage .... Not only have I invested....but how about this .... volunteered and picked up in approx of one million pieces of litter during the past three years... thats free.... but not free to me.... this low income person...has to pay landfill tippping fees to dispose of his litter he patrioticly cleaned up.... and alos gas costs to clean up abroad etc.... This may seem minor.... But when put into perspective... they want a glamourus party for the rich in Whistler... " while our childrens schoolyards are daily filthy with litter...sometimes inclusive of needles, used condoms, etc ! You might be interested in some dirt I have On Gordon Campbell ...whatr is your interest... Internet links at end of email I am very much sio opposed to the olympics for a reason,,,,,,nobody has ever mentioned to date.... I offer you this info ...to try to help you........Myself I cant partake in protests or...because I need to keep to my mandate which is slowing the growth of littering in Canada.... Interestingly BC prides itself and the BC governmentr hads been promoting BC as a tourist haven....and that its going to boom..... Heres my advise to give to the OYMPIC BID People...... You need to provide graphic pictures of many things..... drug related. poverty, and filth....young girls prostituting...etc Here is my point regarding Tourism Prospects..... The question should be brought forward.... Should the BC government be promoting BC ....when it is at its filthiest in history..... You need only take a video of the highway litter, street litter, ditch litter.... and most importantly.... the filthy schoolyards our kids are playing within.... Combined with the fact the BC Government will not open the doors to employee people to take care of this growing problem.... What needs to be pointed out is that the pictures and everything in the bid is a farce.... just take a walk and see for yourself.... http://www.ctv.ca/servlet/ArticleNews/story/CTVNews/1027387886913_22797086// http://www.greenworks.tv/woodchuckcafe/archives/feature_canada_lking.asp http://www.payitforwardmovement.org/groups.html Contact Info ........ www.canadalitterking.com 250-336-2644

144	Soniya	Oberio	HI	US	i think that if the olympics are held in vancouver that i wont really matter b/c the people from vancouver wont likely attend b/c the tickets are reserved for all the politics and etc. so i think it wont really matter to me b/c no matter where it is you will be able to watch it on tv, so thats my reason for, well actually im not sure where it should be held.
145	leane	oftebro
146	danielle	thibert		CA	from tsawwassen:its not fair that we have to pay at least 18 milion in tax rais and dont get to vote pluse most people wont be able to go and see the olympics anyways! tourisim will yes take a big leap for the better but we still end up with the bill.

149	ashley	smith		CA	I like the Idea but the thought of you having to kick poor people out of there homes is crap.
150	Lydia	Schayes	FL	CA	We shold not be cutting health care and all the things that might support the Olimpics in time we shoul be preparing for the best of it. I think we should have the Olympics because it will provide something for our youth to look fored to and I would do alot of Good for Vancover to get something interesting. Thank You and i HOPE you support my disishion.
