Hi friends!
If your neighbourhood sounded different last Thursday, it wasn't just you. That was half of Vancouver watching Canada put six past Qatar at BC Place.
This week it gets even bigger — Canada plays Switzerland tomorrow at noon, and a win or draw keeps the next round right here in Vancouver. This might be the most exciting sports week this city has seen since 2010. And unlike the Olympics, you can watch this one for free in your pyjamas at the library.
Here’s what’s inside this issue:
🚨 A parking scam text making the rounds — what to delete immediately
💦 The Granville Island waterslide is back — but the splash park isn't (yet)
💲 Free national parks all summer — the Canada Strong Pass is live right now
🐴 A real working farm in Vancouver — pony rides, animals, no admission fee
Let's get into it. 👇🏼
