Talk:Whistler, British Columbia

thanks wikipedia

Hi, it is nice to see that although Whistler has been faced with some difficultires in recent past. Whistler has been expereincing some up swings such as a full article in Wikipedia. Plus a new web site called www.whistler2020.ca that looks at Whistler's sustainability journey. Whistler needs our help - I hope you will in some way join Whistler's sustainability journey.

Needs WAY more content

A bit stunned to see that this jumps from the founding of the Garibaldi Lift Company straight to an Olympics 2010 pitch, with nothing in between; please ref other BC municipalities to see what else an article should include, and always remember that this is not a platform for promotional materials for local companies (in fact due to WP:COI no one from the RMOW or the WRA should take part in editing it!!). There's a good thirty years of local history to account for in there, plust public facilities, the development issues that have faced the palce and certain subdividions, notably landmarks such as the Trollhouse, the destruction of the squats and heritage structures because of "construction frenzy", and more; I learned French in Whistler, for example, because of the high proportion of Quebeckers, franco-Ontarians and European French in town during the '80s. Also, "resort municipality" should be defined, as this is the only such BC municipality and the terms of what that mean should be in here (including the old Sunday drinking vs dry Sundays everywhere else, which was an RMOW exclusive until Expo '86).Skookum1 01:17, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
