I'm skeptical about the "companies based in Vancouver" section - looks like an invitation for linkspam. IMO, if companies are indeed significant to the local economy, then it shouldn't be too hard to incorporate them into the main text, rather than an arbitrary bulleted list (1-800-Got Junk? Whatever! Why not the hot dog vendor at Robson and Hornby? Or the many companies that are more significant but which are omitted: MEC, Rocky Mountain bicycles, VanCity bank, etc, etc.) At the very least, some specific criteria should be used for the list, besides being based in Van. Anyone else have thoughts on this?Bobanny 23:55, 28 October 2006 (UTC)
