Rep Power: 41   | Would you want the Olympics in your city? I was just thinking about how unpopular the decision to try to get the Olympics in NYC was. It seemed like NOBODY wanted it here except the mayor. So I ask you guys, would you want the Olyumpics in your city? (or the closest city nearby) Why or why not? | |

Rep Power: 53 | When Manchester were one of the contenders for the 2000 games I would have really loved it here, we got the commenwealth Game instead in 2002 and its helped the city a lot, most of the facilities were built in the Eastlands area of the city which as always had problems with Prostitution, drugs etc... but since about 18 months before the games the problems have diasapeared and its created more jobs and brougfht plenty of money into the area | |

Rep Power: 24 | We've got the Olympics here (well, in Vancouver) in 2010, and it seems like everyone is really excited. A lot of it will be taking place up at Whistler though, which means it won't be madness in downtown Vancouver or anything -- except during hockey events of course. If I'm still living here in five years, I hope to check out a bit of the games. | |

Rep Power: 24 | I would have loced it being right downtown Toronto. I am guessing a lot of would take place outside of TO. We had a chance but our retarded Mayor messed things up. Cracking jokes in Africa about people being cooked in pots by native tribes. I am not sure exactly what the deal was but he was an idiot. We have enough stu now though to keep things interesting, but it would have been a cool experience. |
