by Phil Melnychuk staff reporter

The poll numbers showing the NDP moving into almost a tie with the Liberals, may have bolstered party spirits but it’s having no effect on the local candidate. “I’m not going to respond to polls. It’s all speculation. The only one that counts is the one on election day,” says Craig Speirs. CTV’s Nanos national telephone Colleen Flanagan/THE NEWS poll that takes opinion nightly Royalty arrives showed the Liberals on Monday with 25.6 per cent, with the NDP just Willow Manor meets Vancouver-based Bill Monroe, impersonator of Queen Elizabeth II, Tuesday.

Do casino owners know something everyone else is missing? Is there a limitless source of gamblers in the Lower Mainland? Are destination gaming sites in Coquitlam, Richmond, New Westminster and Burn- aby ﬁ lled to bursting with poker, black jack and slot machine players? That would be the conclusion drawn from comments by B.C. Lottery Corp. CEO Michael Graydon, who said in February a rejection of the proposal for a mega casino next to B.C. Place Stadium in Van- couver would “certainly” prompt a look at sites in other Metro Vancouver cities, potentially as far as Abbotsford. Vancouver’s spurning of a 1,500-slot machine destination casino downtown could mean jilted opera- tors looking elsewhere for a site. Port Moody has already said no, Surrey is interested in a destination casino with a hotel and a theatre, and North Van- couver is apparently under-served and could use some slots and gaming tables. It appears gambling is on par with other community services, such as libraries and swimming pools: Everyone needs to have one to get a piece of the lu- crative business. But before the Lower Mainland becomes Las Ve- gas North, the question has to be asked: Are there enough gamblers to go around? While it’s true gambling has the potential of increasing tourism, the Lower Mainland is never going to have the same cachet as other famous international destinations. This means any new gambling opportunities will have to siphon business away from those that are currently in operation. If the gambling industry in- sists on establishing a casino in every village and town, business will surely dwindle in communities that were early entries in the game.
