did you know that Metro has not paid their bill of over $200,000 to a small contracting company that saved their skin in getting this place open…now they are not paying their bill even though the place was signed off on by all the deisigners, architects and owners of the building “sighting deficiencies”…they will put this company out of business…do they let people eat in their restaurant for free without paying the tab? …what a bunch of losers …put that in your column…call the company “Action Projects Ltd” 604-710-1234 for a real scoop…

Canvas Lounge will be opening up as a bar/club on the 28th.. I believe this month but may be next month?
Well, on the 28th of April, there’s the JetSet Crew “Matador” Mexico Themed event so probably this month. I’ll get more information and create a new blog posting on it…
