Man robs Tim Hortons, jumps into ocean, hides under Canada Place pier, evades capture

I told you I'd get you back, you fukcers. Bwahahaha. Outsource my job, will ya.

I guess the next merchant just has to look out for the wet bills, or a neighbour who overhears a hair dryer that is constantly running...

He picked the right day to take a header into Burrard Inlet, gotta give him credit for that....

Apparently the inlet is a lot cleaner than it used to be. Divers report abundant sealife, orcas are seen more frequently in the inlet (presumably indicating seals which indicates fish), so that's a good news story.

If you Google Burrard inlet you will see it is actually a great deal larger than most imagine. It can be divided into 3 separate bodies of water. The area between the 2 bridges, the Lions Gate and the Second Narrows AKA the Ironworkers Memorial Second Narrows Crossing, is considered to be a world class harbour. Beyond the Ironworkers bridge into Pt Moody is less industrialized but does contain numerous oil storage sites and the Burrard Thermal plant, a 900 megawatt conventional natural gas-fired generating station. To the north of Pt Moody are the communities of Belcarra (to the east) and the District of North Vancouver (to the west) to the north of these communities is Indian Arm, a fjord running some 12 miles into nothing but wilderness (and the Wigwam Inn, the home of the Royal Vancouver Yacht club). The north end is reachable by gravel road from Squamish, running behind the Britannia beach mine site. To give an idea of the wilderness of the area, just to the north and northeast is Garibaldi Provincial park and the area of the town of Whistler(and absolutely nothing else at all for miles and miles).

One adventure I've never tried! Add to bucket list...

If you get the chance try to do the trip in late summer/early autumn, Indian river has a great run of Pink salmon in odd numbered years, Chum every year and smaller runs of Chinook and Coho. The pools can actually look black from the number of fish holding in them. Also be advised there is a fairly good population of Black bears taking their share of the Salmon. And, I'm pretty sure there must also be the occasional Griz or four also taking advantage of this food source!!

If you go partway up that road, and bushwhack you get to the Sky Pilot area. Beautiful heather and tarn terrain, with some exciting skiing off the notch of Sky Pilot. Never seen so many fat black bears in one area, (in the summer) had to watch not to step in their shit. Possibly they were still feeding off the Britannia dump.

Sounds like the Senate spending inquiry...millions spent to recover thousands.
