I say NO! because it's going to cost our province quite a lot of money, and BC can't even support itself and properly fund a lot of things like healthcare, schools, etc. dern government.

Yeah Shadowfax, I don't want the Olympics for that very reason. I don't think it's fair for the entire province to pay for something that Vancouver would largely benefit from.

Plus, there are much better things to spend the money on instead, like all the important social programs that just got slashed, or giving a break to broke students whose tuition just went up.
