Btw KingDeeCee, you can't say its premeditated and rigged because it was clear from the start that only the top voted person would be guaranteed a spot in the final round (not the 2nd and 3rd runner up). Ultimately, the city has its bigger objectives and is entitled to best decide how to fulfill it. Tourist $$ = benefits BC economy.
Not a fail worthy post, but I disagree
