I have to say, it sounds nuts over at city hall today. There’s an in-camera meeting this morning and apparently Mayor Robertson is going to make a statement/announcement right after that. It could be just my imagination, but every time I talk to someone over there, they sound exactly like those CNN reporters covering hurricanes from the centre of the storm.
Then new city manager Penny Ballem will be briefing council at a special council meeting on the Olympic village project at 2 p.m., with promises of perhaps some new information.
Undoubtedly there will be a lot of legalistic grilling, overblown rhetoric and general hysteria. And who knows what else?
It’s hard to think with one set of city storm-troopers after another coming over the barricades here.
See Frances Bula's blog for more on the Olympic village story.

It is unlikely anyone involved in this mess knows where it will end. We have gotten rid of the completely incompetent NPA, in a few months it will be time to get rid of Mr. culpable himself, Gordon Campbell and company.
Hopefully, the powers that be will not try to cover up what is happening and who may be responsible. Honesty is the only policy left that might work.

Gordo says" Don't blame me,
Gordo says" Don't blame me, we were not in control of the event". Sure Gordo,as a ex realtor you saw big profits and a really fancy place for the sport crowd to spend a couple of weeks . Just think of the photo op of him and a few NPA folks. Sorry about that, the NPA didn't win, almost extinguished so Gordo goes into denial mode. Hey what's a billion when the highrollers are involved, but they seem to be gone as well as the NPA
