No!

No games in TO!

<shudder>

This is the big trade off, no summer games in Toronto in 2012. I also found out this morning there is no call for sponsorships till at least October.. BN plans on having a regional office in B.C. by 2004-05

George...you really need to get out more!

 

[George Simon]

OK, so you got the Winter games in 2010 but that does not explain why the Vancouver-Whistler reference.

 

[Peter1]

The games are going to be held in Vancouver and Whistler jointly. Does that help?

 

[George Simon]

Yes, it does.
Had never heard of Whistler.

Awww ok. Actually Mircosoft used Whistler as a code name for one of the products.

From 2000
Microsoft Delivers First Beta Release of Next Version of Windows, Code-Named "Whistler" Now known as Windows XP....

The next code name is Longhorn.

Now, because of how Whistler got it's name, the "on the edge" of endangered Marmot will now receive needed protective measures...funny how that happens.
