In the 1980s the Whistler Question began posing a question to three to six people and publishing their responses under “Whistler’s Answers” (not to be confused with the Whistler Answer). Each week, we’ll be sharing one question and the answers given back in 1986. Please note, all names/answers/occupations/neighbourhoods represent information given to the Question at the time of publishing and do not necessarily reflect the person today.
Some context for this week’s question: The city of Vancouver was incorporated on April 6, 1886, making 1986 the 100th anniversary of incorporation.
Question: Do you have any birthday wishes for Vancouver?
Peter Craik – Ski Instructor – Alpine Meadows
I hope Expo goes well for them and they continue to be successful.
Pam Glover – Aerobic Instructor – Victoria
I wish it well. And I wish I was in Granville Market right now eating one of their cheese bagels!
Geoff Howes – Convalescent – Whistler Cay Heights
Maybe Vancouver will get a decent provincial government to complement the fine civic government they have.
