Well, it certainly wasn't everything I hoped for, but the Vancouver
Courier article is up and I think Cheryl did a good job with it:

The last couple paragraphs really made me cry though. (Maybe not so
much cry as run around the formerly-Bryght office screaming expletives
- ask Richard for details)

I dropped a voice mail to Amelia, who I know has been on vacation,
just to see if Drew's got the last word on this. I surely hope not.

And I've been assured that at least one TransLink employee will be
coming, maybe of his own accord. But yeah, it's a bit of a downer note
on the article.

But whatever! We'll make a good time of it anyway.

It's interesting that Drew says nobody can attend. I find it very odd, especially since most people who work there are very passionate about transit itself, and I would assume at least a few would be willing to spend their afternoon at TransitCamp, regardless of their being there as a TransLink employee or just another participant. 

Great article though. Karen you did a great job. It should be interesting to find out how many people that attend heard about it through the paper.
