dude, that was during the winter. welcome to a new reality. words on the streets has it the intrawest (owners of whistler-blackcomb) just got bitch slapped by a couple of lawsuits.
at the start of last year, two people got paralyzed in the park. apparently the case has gone through the courts and they've hit the paydirt.
due to the quicksilver chairlift fiasco in which two people died due to faulty lifts, intrawest has a heinously high insurance policy. now combined the the recent lawsuits, shit has really hit the fan, heads are rolling and the place just fucking stinks.
speed control, ski patrol and park rangers now have the authority to revoke your pass for performing unauthorized acrobatics. there have even been whispers of fences been put up in front of popular cliffs in order to prevent possible hucks and injuries.
intrawest's formerly friendly backcountry policy is also now over. the backcountry is now considered permanently closed and you can get your pass revoked. intrawest in also now lobbying with town council to be able to criminally charge repeat offenders.
intrawest is fucking whistler up! they're the fucking gestapo of the mountain now. i just got tongue whipped by patrol for flipping in the pipe and am luck to still have my pass.
the rebellion is inevitable.
power and powder to the people!
PS- this is all because of you stupid fucking yanks. you and your gung ho 'sue em!' attitude have fucked us up. if you huck and get hurt, it's your own fault you contemptible and irresponsible shit stick.
go in the backcountry and get caught in a slide? that's why the call in the backcountry dumbass. ever hear about the lady in colorado who was explicitly told by patrol not to venture into the backcountry, did anyways and got fucked up? sued the patrol and state anyways. fucking twit.
your fucking dumbass yankee sue em attitude has begun to pervert canada. you fucks!
death to intrawest!
death to lawyers!
rebel!
