Bill Jensen paints picture of tough times ahead in the short term

While it was a busy weekend for Whistler with Canada Day and Independence Day, for the most part residents and visitors were well-behaved.

Future weddings at the Nicklaus North golf club will likely involve dancing. On Tuesday, councillors gave their blessing to letting people boogie at the clubhouse until 11 p.m.

Whistler's public library could likely see a temporary transformation when the Olympics roll into town next February.
