At the end of the day Vancouver is a young city that is only now adjusting to being considered a cosmopolitan world city. It will take atleast a decade for the bylaws and such to catch up. I know most can't wait but I think we are slowly making progress.

Yeah, I forgot they have those gas heaters now...

Still, there's just no way that the 1am closings could continue after the Olympics. I couldn't imagine it. People generally think that 11pm is reasonable but I couldn't imagine living at say the W and having to put up with drunken revellers at the Cambie 'til 1am every night.

That would be a major bone of contention for those residents.
