[Bunk]

Some of you might know, the Mayors of Vancouver and Calgary had their bet on the first round series - of course we came out victorious. 3 parts - donation to food bank, wearing winning team's jersey in Council, and reciting a poem written by the winning city's mayor.

Vancouver's Gregor Robertson made good today.

Here's the video evidence



The Poem

Rebuild! Rebuild!

Out there
On the edge of the country
Where the mountains meet the ocean
We’re trying to build something new.

Something relevant.
Something post-modern.
Dare we say … something better.

And that’s good.

But sometimes …

Sometimes …

The condos leak.

Rebuild!

The cauldron fails to rise.

Rebuild!

Nickelback moves in and young people move out. (Can we rebuild for that?)

The twins can’t score.

Rebuild!

But these kids in red (who are they?) can.

Rebuild!

Diving’s not a Winter Olympic sport?

Rebuild!

And we’re still at zero cups and counting.
(not Starbucks cups)

Pucks fall in our net
Like cherry blossoms in spring
So very pretty

Rebuild!

(Maybe we should rethink the whole waving white towels thing? Why surrender all the time?)

Bieksa’s trash talk
Lululemon underwear
No good for hockey

Rebuild!

Set off fireworks!
Ours is the longest golf season in the country!
And we’re not Edmonton.

Rebuild!

Go Flames!
Vote Transit!
