What You See is What You Get?

The Vancouver Winter Olympics 2010 is finally here and is bringing a surge of patriotism into the hearts of every Canadian. But is that surge strong enough to resuscitate  our economy? According to the Vancouver Sun, we are expected to see an improvement in the economy, but in terms of our provincial revenues, it is going to be lagging behind for another four years.

As many controversies  there are about the presence of the Olympics, everyone should just accept the fact that it has arrived. Vancouver has so much to offer in terms of tourism and that’s what should be taken advantage of right now. Forget about trying to strategically manoeuvre the economy. It will eventually find its way back to potential GDP. All we can do now as consumers and educated citizens is market our beautiful city. We’ve got mountains, lakes, beaches. It is rainy in the morning, and sunny in the afternoon. No more talks about economics. Everyone is so concerned about making safe decisions or being pessimistic that they forget about the beauty of this project.

Olympics+eager spectators+curious tourists+fabulous marketing+optimism= future tourists and business+an unbelievable experience in Canadian history.

The outcome of the economy and the results that are to entail mirror that of a math equation too. It does not matter how you approach it because there is only one definite answer. The Olympics are here and the games are beginning. The art of business and its components can only predict so much until time takes over. So I say enjoy the events and have some faith.
