Here's something you may or may not know, but....
I am not a real Gazetteer.
And while I don't even play one on the TeeVee, I do like to throw weird locations into the subheader of these posts, even if they are really only locales pulled from the hippocampus of a sometimes slightly unhinged mind.
Just so you know, however, back in the old days I actually used to put down real coordinates for story locations.
But, just to be absolutely clear, I now officially relinquish any and all local map-making rights and/or privileges to the VSun's resident polymath, Chad Skelton, whose recently-published census material-overlaid maps of Metro Vancouver that make for some seriously fun and interesting reading/playing....Some of the stuff is self evident and some is a real eye-opener.
So....
Go fiddle and have fun - The fruits of Mr. Skelton's labour are what the Internets are for.

Strange isn't that Mr. Hahn is considered to be a public sector and yet he's always been touted as private sector by the BC Liberals.

Well?

Regarding inbred boards and outrageous executive compensation more generally, the following is particularly interesting.
