2010 Olympics brings civic war to Vancouver?

Have you read the headlines lately in the paper?

"When the International Olympic Committee troops did not pull out of Vancouver after the games, the city should have erupted into civic war..."

Well, I did not see this quote in the paper but I read this disturbing thought when I attended "Reece Terris: The Western Front Front - Another False Front". The exhibition was vibrant.

I learned about this exhibition from the 2010 Cultural Olympiad website:

The Western Front, one of Canada's longest running artist-run arts centres, is
located in Vancouver’s Mount Pleasant neighbourhood. In an architectural
intervention, artist Reece Terris constructs a temporary false front on top
of the centre’s already existing false front. This work is in keeping with
the idea of architecture as an expression of perceived wealth and culture,
and it emphasizes Vancouver’s long-running upswing in the real-estate market
and subsequent boom economy.

I was even fortunate to attend on a day that there was a symposium called "Learning from Vancouver". I even learned the interesting history and the reason behind the architecture of tht Vanvouver Art Gallery.
