Our provincial government is treating us like little kids or more like sheep, trying to make us believe that the Olympic costs are on budget. Firstly we are expected to believe that Highway improvement projects are not related to the Olympics as is the sky train extension to YVR. These projects would not have been started had not the Olympics been awarded to Vancouver. The cost overruns of the Olympic village is apparently a non issue to our government, tell that to the citizens of Vancouver who are on the hook for at least $100,000,000!
We have not even been given an estimate on how many hundreds of millions it will cost us to provide security for the games. The federal gov’t will possibly contribute a portion towards security but it will be costly no matter what.
I just cannot understand why the Liberal government feels they have to keep the actual costs from the general public. Whether we agreed with having the games here or not, they are a fact of our lives now and we just have to accept that.
Please Mr. Campbell be up front and tell us the real truth. We really can take it better than the lies and fabrications we are being fed now.
