Nelson, B.C. is my metropolis, almost a 2-hour drive from my hidey-hole!

Baker Street, the main drag, looks like a down-at-heels chunk of Berkeley, Boulder, or Seattle.

It's plumb full of youthful moochers, and elderly, pony-tailed, time-warped hippies.

A smugger, more fatuous collection of Trudeaupian socialists you will not find!

Appalling. I do my business and get out.

Try looking at it from the viewpoint of a tourism enteurpeneur. "Ladies and gentlemen, I give you... Jurassic Park!" Hell, I'd buy a ticket (for a two-hour tour, no more).

Yep, every year they have a street fest, commonly referred to by the RCMP as Freak Fest.

Sad that the little village has nothing to memorialize but cowardness.

You just described Arcata California except the aging hippies teach at Humboldt State...
