Who's going to light the flame?

The BC Winter Games are about a week away. Still no announcement of just who will light the flame. Christy Clark?

A homeless person trying to keep warm. There's plenty of them in Vernon.

I surely would hope it would be either the mayor or the vernon good citizen of the year or the person most responsible for getting the games and running things

To be honest, I don't even know where and when anything is being lit, I haven't read or heard anything in the media.

Christy Clark is still the favourite, but Bill Good is a good second choice as a stand-in for her.

Okay, so who lit the flame? All the Vernon news sites that I can access are telling me that the opening ceremonies WILL be held Wednesday night and it's now Thursday morning. And that the athletes will be fed healthy meals. And that the Wesbild Centre WILL look real good for the ceremonies. And that there's too much snow at Silver Star.

Did anybody go to the ceremonies? Who lit the flame?
