Default WARNING - Avoid Edmonton Stamp Show=Avoid Thefts!! Repost

It seems that enough honest stamp dealers heeded the warning, so that
attendance since 2006, has been a dismal failure!

Now, the city of Deadmonton is having a program to try and mimimise
all the well-publicised CRIME, which has resulted in the federal
govermnment designating the city as the CRIME CAPITAL OF CANADA!

Hopefully, the Edmonton Stamp Club is losing enough money to go
bankrupt, and out of existence finally?

Looks like the poor guy from the village of Vernon, just
can not argue against the facts!!


The toll highway cuts several hours from the travel time
Edmonton to Vancouver, which is why it was built. By taking the toll
highway, one bypasses all the small towns and villages with all their
ripoff gas pumps for example.


The travel time of less than 10 hours is normal, with 2
stops.After all it is only less than 1,000 km-not miles.

The village of Vernon may be halfway between the two
cities, but it is NOT on direct shortest route!!


That is why the Coquihalla Highway was built, as a toll
road, to reduce distance and time, and also avoid having to go
near Vernon!!

I have near the middle of these two cities.... it is a
minimum of 4-6 hours to Vancouver from me depending what
part you are coming from, and to Edmonton from here is a
minimum of 7- 8 hours.... so I would estimate a travel
timeof 11-14 hours... winter ALLOT MORE... kk
