Why We Love the Vancouver Business Scene (Frauds, Scams and Flim-flams)

Last month I mentioned a Canadian writer in connection with WPRT:
The company is based in Vancouver where the Vancouver Sun does a a marvelous job of covering the city's business scene. One writer in particular, David Baines, has impressed me over the years...
A reader just sent me the results of a search he did on what Mr. Baines is up to.
Here is the results page at the Vancouver Sun:
