Expo 86 and Expo 88

Unlike highly restrictive Vancouver, Brisbane started to allow taller buildings, wider bridges and longer trains.

No office tower in Vancouver has been allowed to have a 40th floor. No Vancouver bridge is allowed to have 8 lanes. Only some of the newest Skytrains have 5 cars, but certainty not 8-10. That would go against the congestive transportation mentality of BC. 

The VMV and the BC Mind Virus are so firmly entrenched.
