"A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear. The traitor is the plague.”

but regardless, parking will be impossible there... I'm not really familiar with that area, but where else could you go to watch outside of COP?

Beginning at 5:30 most of the C-train stations in the north have shuttles going to COP and start coming back to the train stations once the fire works are overOriginally posted by kiwi

I'm entered in a street hockey tournament with 4 other friends. It includes dj's throughout the day, bbq, prizes. Then afterwards I think I'm just going to head up to COP with them to view the fireworks.

Apparently theres shit going on at Princess Island Park.. i'm surprised no one mentioned this. Some buddies and I are going to drift down the bow river, have some bow riva shooters and then party it up at PIP lol
