An NHL player that (accidentally?) publicly shared a video of cocaine on his Instagram account.

Maybe I'm getting old, but that sign looks cheap like some Aliexpress knockoff. It might've looked okay without the lights - those little nubs make it look like it has a warts outbreak.

Personally, I like something more tasteful like the one in Amsterdam:

Ironically they took down the Amsterdam sign years ago because they were sick of the selfie-taking insta drones hogging up all the space from locals.

A lot of European cities have a sign like this, Munich and Nice both had it. Though the Vancouver one does look a little tacky

Backdrop with mountains is awesome, no argument there, but the sign itself could be better. Way better.

C'mon, Vancouver, we could do better.

maybe they were trying to get theatre (or peeler ) style lettering w/ lights on it.

i know it's not east van, but i'd rather have an E.Van cross there than those letters

Nanaimo has a sign also.


Some people love to complain about it. it cost too much or it's a danger to children.

The Nanaimo one looks great, and I know it's a stupidly minor thing, but it irks me that the bottom wedge in the O is narrower than all the others.

Damn nice pics you got there. Yeah it was only my 2nd time going the first being right before COVID when they didn't have any reserve system. What's the best time of you to visit you reckon? Both my visits were in February.

For the love of Katherine Houghton, I just encountered VPD's version of Nikki Heat at Grandview Hwy, Canadian Tire. I know pics or it didn't happen............. yeah, stop a cop and say, "Hey, can I get a photo of you for RS?" Mind you, she could handcuff me and I wouldn't mind............. handcuffs, nuff said.
