Many tourists around town have asked, tweeted or emailed us wondering where the fireworks/celebration gathering for New Year’s Eve (NYE) in Vancouver will be?

Dragonette is a reason enough to go, but then they throw in Stereos and that’s a deal breaker for me.

A city council candidate hopeful from Victoria, BC, is allegedly running away from police on a province-wide warrant.
