Seattle's annual Seafair Kickoff Celebration is back at a brand-new location
https://www.seafair.org https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seafair
Vancouver, BC used to have a Sea Festival, but it got watered down & drained away. https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/british-columbia/sea-festival-files-for-bankruptcy-protection-1.545832
Fortunately, the Seattle version is still going strong.

Calls to cap salaries of Metro Vancouver board
Calls to cap the salaries of politicians service on Metro Vancouver's board are growing louder, with both municipal and provincial voices weighing in. https://www.ctvnews.ca/vancouver/video/2025/06/28/calls-to-cap-salaries-of-metro-vancouver-board/
The region is already so far behind with its transportation infrastructure. Its as if a large percentage of the money have been going towards some people & not towards bus-bridges & longer trains.

Vancouver has become so backwards, inept, expensive and bloated, that it no longer is able to have a fireworks show on July 1st. Fortunately, Vancouver was unable to get all the other major cities in Canada to give up & cancel their fireworks shows.
Vancouver used to have a Canada Day fireworks display, but gave up. Vancouver used to have a sea festival, but it got watered down and washed away.
While Vancouver's Sea Festival sank, Seattle's Seafair not only remained a float, but has grown stronger over the years. https://www.seafair.org , https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seafair#Events
Its as if Vancouver is trying to be one of the world's strangest, backwards and inept cities.

Fortunately, Seattle is still able to have their festival after all these years. They just never seemed to have the same problems that Vancouver had.

Vancouver Park Board to consider extended beach hours around summer solstice
Vancouver is such a strange and backwards provincial city.
https://www.ctvnews.ca/vancouver/article/no-fun-city-calls-to-extend-hours-at-vancouver-beaches/
For a city that claims that it doesn't have a NO FUN CITY (NFC) vibe, it occasionally keep emerging.
https://vancouver.citynews.ca/2024/06/25/vancouver-police-english-bay-beach-sweeps-questions/
Fortunately, the mind virus that is Vancouver hasn't caught on with most cities around the world.

It's one thing if some people living close to the beach don't want to hear drinking parties going on until 2 or 3 AM. However, reasonably behaved people should be able to enjoy summer sunsets from a beach vantage point. Summer goes by too quickly in BC, so the best time to enjoy the beach is during the summer.
To think that there used to be a Vancouver Sea Festival. Fortunately, Vancouver was unable to get Seattle to give up on its Seafair. https://www.seafair.org/what-is-seafair
Vancouver was never able to waterdown the Calgary_Stampede. https://www.calgarystampede.com
Vancouver should be making it easier to have summer festivals, not more difficult.
Hopefully, the Vancouver Mind Virus (VMV) will never be accepted in proper cities around the world.

Fortunately, the Caribana Festival is far away from backwards Vancouver.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caribana#Economics_and_impact May it never be watered down or cancelled by anything like the Vancouver Mind Virus. The VMV is so horrible, don't let it take over your city.

Vancouver's Celebration of Light fireworks festival cancelled indefinitely
Some people say that there can't be anything like a No Fun Vancouver Mind Virus. Its just that throughout the decades, backwards Vancouver keeps getting sevela things wrong.
For some strange reason, Vancouver hasn't been able to convince other Canadian cities to give up on their summer fireworks.
https://vancouversun.com/news/local-news/vancouvers-celebration-of-light-cancelled-indefinitely
Over the years, a lot of people living in the West_End of downtown have gotten very pisst-off with all the beer, pee and excremental antics by the masses of visitors.

https://dailyhive.com/vancouver/celebration-of-light-vancouver-fireworks-2026-cancelled
https://vancouversun.com/news/could-be-vancouvers-last-celebration-light-producer-warns
This cancelation make sense, since Vancouver also ended up being the only major Canadian city to no longer bother with NY Day fireworks. Even if Vancouver was some kind of an entity that could pee into a bottle and market it to other cities so that they also would cancel their NY Day fireworks, they just aren't interested in buying that PI$$!
Vancouver lost its Sea Festival after 2005, but was never able to convince Seattle to give up on its Seafair.

This No Fun Vancouver Mind Virus is such B$! It would breakdown other cities if it ever gets contagious.
It's all part of the overall Vancouver Mind Virus.
