The Vancouver Sun, bless it, is worried about the Montreal economy. Now that the city has lost its F1 Grand Prix, where will it get tourist dollars from? Oh, not to worry, the World Science Fiction Convention is coming to town.
Well, to be fair, Montreal is also getting the World Diabetes Conference, which is estimated at a significant 12,000 attendees, but it looks like we are actually the second biggest show in town this year. Let’s not let them down.
I’m afraid that I have given up on conventions, they just haven’t been much fun for the last several years.
What’s your definition of “fun”, Matt? I attend many different sorts of SF convention. Maybe you are just going to the wrong ones.
Thoroughly amused. You and me with the same Google Alerts I tell you. Posted the link to the story as soon as it had landed in my inbox.
Hee.
