[edit] Famous Maple Ridgers
I've added a very brief list of famous Maple Ridge people. I'll try to expand it as I get more names.
I think the list of "famous" people should be significantly culled.
[edit] Population
' the population is closer to 73,000..."not over 91,000" see: http://www.bcstats.gov.bc.ca/DATA/pop/pop/mun/Mun9605a.asp this shoudl be changed
[edit] more on the history
I think that there are several key points in the history that we could easily add, although I don't have suitable references right now. Mainly, the amalgamation of the smaller villages to make the municipality (Haney, Whonnock, Albion, Ruskin, etc.). Also, something about the 'new downtown core' and the associated political fallout. So those things are on the to-do list as far as I can tell. Spebudmak 22:12, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Innappropriate?
Does anyone else find the "aka Meth Town" comment in one of the opening paragraphs innappropriate? I don't think it's necessary and if I knew how I would edit it. Anyone else agree/disagree? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 142.58.195.196 (talk) 00:26, 4 January 2007 (UTC). -Never mind, its been changed
