VANCOUVER RESPONDS with non-profit initiative

Fellow Vancouverites and Canucks fans.

The resounding sentiment around our city is one of embarrassment regarding the events in downtown on June 15, 2011.

With the Olympics one year ago, the world came to know our spectacular city we are proud and fortunate to call home.  Unfortunately, the actions of a few criminals have undermined our values and hurt many.  From destroying property of business owners who capture the essence of our free society, to assaulting citizens who stood bravely in their defense.  To our great embarrassment, the criminals have sent out a totally false message about our beautiful and proud city of honest, hard working people.

Ultimately, the actions of the few can be no match for the integrity and resolve of the millions of Vancouver citizens and true Canucks fans. We will be defined by our response!
