Talk:Hotel Europe (Vancouver)

Having read this history of the Hotel Europe in Gastown, I am doubting the information regarding the ground floor having housed a beer parlour and the underground area having housed a large barber shop. All other sources refer to the underground area as having once being a speakeasy (i.e., saloon). Separate sources indicate that the ground floor commercial premises was a restaurant before it was the poster shop of today. While a barbershop may have been situated in the building, I have not come across any other evidence of it. Considering the hidden aspect of the underground area, a speakeasy seems to have been more likely. Further information / research is needed. --Gmansfield 22:39, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

anti-Canadian bias
The article says: "Experts had to be flown in from Cincinatti, U.S.A. to help the Canadians build this building". That is ridiculous! Canada as part of the British Empire was VERY WELL able to build any building without help from US-American "experts"! 93.219.160.137 (talk) 10:06, 3 August 2012 (UTC)

bias response
What are you going on about? Low-self-esteem? Xenophobia? It is clear that experts were brought in from Cinicinnati, USA, because they got the job, not a Canadian or Brit! Get over yourself.
