In my dicey Toronto neighbourhood, it would be cop first, and there would be no difference whether the was fixed or transient in residence (though I suppose that if I was part of a street gang, the approach would change.)

How is the same situation handled in Fernie?[/quote]

I thought in Toronto ya’ll shot each other,

nobody here knows what the heck you are going on about, if you and your buddies got beat up while you were down here or something like that, explain….

but i will remind you that people get beat up in every small (and big) town across this country.. booze, drugs and testoserone are a lethal mix bro…

Flames, you are so wrong..

I love Alberta, and find most Albertans to be fantastic, friendly people (even though they have a hard time driving around corners), but Flames, your attitude is so misguided, and frankly you should vacation in Banff or Jasper, where you do not have to worry about being treated like an outsider, we dont need that attitude that you bring with you here in Fernie. Have you ever thought how many of those people that you refuse to support downtown are former Albertans themselves…?

I remember years ago, when Murray first bailed out Chuck, and everybody in town was kind of wondering what this new “owner” was going to bring to the table here in Fernie..

I was having a beer on the deck at the griz bar and i met some old Alberta rancher, this guy said that he knew Murray very well and told us all that Murray only cared about money and that if we thought things were bad now under Charlies rule, we had seen nothing yet…. He said, (and i am sure that this was only his opinion, like everything else expressed on this site) that Murray would bleed this place dry, not give a shit about the locals and run the ski hill just like an oil well… He actually said that Murray would probally break the company up and sell it in pieces eventually.

No offence, but i am sure that Murray has more millions than ski days…

p.s. I love Fernie, i think the ski hill rocks, and i think that there are still ALOT of excellent people working up there, and with RCR, I just wish that profit wasnt the only incentive behind this corporation,

To Griz-Boy… I loved your report on Sunshine, this is an excellent idea you have here, I wait in anticipation to see how Fernie fares against the rest of the resorts in your poll….

My guess for the original mogul smoker:

Old cat shop at the ski hill…?

Keep your chin up Marko, this party might not be everybodies cup of tea, but you are still doing a good thing…unless of course you piss of the griz….

[moke]

Just beep beep whistle whistle music?

No rock and roll?

No Burnin skis?

just pallets?

25 dollars at the door?

I was in, now i am out…

sorry, best of luck with the party,

hope it rocks,

[moke]

Hey,

one room left, super huge, excellent view of the ski hill from your pillow, quite house, cool roomies, 450 covers everything cept telephone…

ciao

HERE HERE…

Gavitron, i am suprsed to find you bashing the mogul smoker, at the same time as telling everyone that they shouldn’t be bashing RCR. what sense does that make, I am sure Marko is not a billionaire oil man, he is just a guy who wants to party…(?)

I was unsure if i was going to go, like the rest of you, i did not want to pay the money and get bussed out to god knows where, but now, i think that the mogul smoker, and the GRIZ need our support, and shit, i would spend easy 15 bucks at the bar that night…so lets all get behind this thing and make it ROCK like the old days, (has anyone contacted BC/DC) i think they are playing in Elkford soon…

And Marko, if you happen to make thousands of dollars throwing this party, you can help all the locals subsidise their million dollar ski passes..

thank you RCR, and Marko for taking care of all us ski bums

RIGHT ON CHARITY

[moke]

right on

but the mogul smoker drink should be key

Couldn’t agree with you guys more, it would be interesting to see how many fewer season passes rcr sold. I know so many people from the valley that have given up on skiing here that it is incredible that it does not make a financial difference to the bottom line (season pass sales) I tell everybody that they have to e-mail the head office and let them know, everybody has to complain, and if they dont listen, everybody has to lead with their pocket book and start touring, it’s just as fun, but fewer runs..

I have found Andy (the GM?) to be excellent at responding via e-mail about any concerns that i have e mailed them, and i am sure that they are getting sick and tired of hearing from me,

Boycott RCR, money is the only thing that talks

moke rules…
dont forget…

Hey kids,

the one thing that you have to remember is that you are visiting the old west….this is not downtown london, and you would be let down if you come here expecting the same services as what you would expect in the big city. Fernie rocks, with lots of great places to have a drink, and a good party atmosphere, especially if it snows…there is a good crew of people from around the world here and that adds to the atmosphere.. there is a pool with a hot ttub, that is open every day after skiing, but the shopping is limited, there are a few fine stores downtown , but not enough for the girls if they are expecting a shopping holiday. this is no banff, or whistler.. As far as the skiing goes, it is unparralled, the boys will love it, and the girls will have to take some lessons….
