î мцšт вяздк чфµ Posted March 30, 2014 Share Posted March 30, 2014 what a bunch of low life losers that did this... http://globalnews.ca/news/1238772/vandals-seriously-damage-lion-statues-next-to-lions-gate-bridge/ Vandals seriously damage iconic lion statues at Lions Gate Bridge By Peter Meiszner Global News more Vandals have defaced two of the lion statues standing guard on the south end of the Lions Gate Bridge. The statues are on the overpass above the Stanley Park Causeway. The damage was discovered early this morning. The snout and paws of one of the statues has been damaged and nearly the entire face of the other lion has been broken off. “It just made me so mad,” said Vancouver-West End MLA Spencer Chandra Herbert. “To see someone smash them in such a manner… what kind of idiot would do this? What kind of idiot would smash something so treasured?” The city says the Parks Board is assessing the damage and looking at restoration options for the statues. Vancouver police say they are investigating the vandalism. “Investigators will be working with the Vancouver Park Board to ensure those responsible are held accountable for taking the roar out of these two lions,” says VPD spokesperson Sergeant Randy Fincham. These smaller lions were installed in 1998 and are similar to original 1939-era lions at the entrance to the bridge. Those larger lions are undamaged. This is the second time the lions have been vandalized. Anyone with information about this incident is asked to call the Vancouver Police Department at 604-717-3321 or Crime Stoppers at 1-888-222-8477. Someone vandalized the lions on the overpass next to the bridge overnight. Jill Bennett, Global News Someone vandalized the lions on the overpass next to the bridge overnight.

drummer4now Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 whats with people calling it Vancity these days? Is this the new hipster douche bag term for Vancouver? Hasn't it always been called that? The only thing that riles my gears is when I see hipsters using mason jars for water bottles.. but thats story for another day. Doesn't help I live in Western Canada's hipster capital Victoria. Or once when I saw some guy eating chicken salad on the bus with a wrench. Lets just say he got the attention of everyone.. and yes I realize this is off topic... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
