In a statement -- the whitecaps say "messi" -- wi*not* make the trip to vancouver -- they don't say why not. While it wasn't "messi" to cancel -- it is for the ross family salmon arm.

It would be great if the city of surrey was t, but the transition is moving forward, there's been a lot of work underway with the rcmp ahe surrey police service, and what would really help things along is for the city of surrey to be at the table, working in collaboration with all the parties involved." > >>sonia: r locke says she accepts the decision but insists the rcmp remains the most financially prudent option for her community.
