Tech-couver

An article about the attempt to attract a larger tech industry to Vancouver. Seems like a good idea to me. Making a conscious effort to promote the technology sector has worked in places like Waterloo and Ottawa. Vancouver has a pretty good base with the video game (i.e. EA) and alternative power industries (i.e. Ballard). As well as large Canadian tech companies like Business Objects. It's also in close proximity to the Microsoft sphere of influence around Seattle, and silicon valley. It's also super-Asian, which can't hurt.
