Vancouver 2010 Security for Visitors
and Olympic Travelers PLUS RCMP Vancouver 2010 Integrated Security
Unit
As you may be well aware, Vancouver Olympic security
will be one of the most talked about and most important factors
in having a successful event. Vancouver 2010 security will be
budgeted for accordingly in all Venue Cities as well as the Sea
to Sky Highway and the waterways to protect Olympic athletes,
visitors, tourists and travelers into the Vancouver Whistler area.
In addition, the RCMP Vancouver 2010 Integrated Security Unit
is making their base at Ballantyine Port in Downtown Vancouver.
Vancouver 2010 Security for International Visitors
and Olympic Athletes
If you are planning a trip to come to the Vancouver Whistler 2010
Winter Olympic Games, security will be an important factor in
deciding if and when to come to experience the world class event.
2010 security has been at the forefront of all the Olympic Vancouver
proposals to the IOC as well as to the City of Vancouver, and
protecting athletes, media, international tourists and travelers
is of utmost importance to the planning committee. Every measure
has been proposed, designed and integrated into an overall Vancouver
2010 security plan that will ensure that all international visitors
and travelers are completely safe during their Olympic visit.
As indicated below, the RCMP/police have leased three large cruise
ships to house the 2010 Vancouver Olympic Integrated Security
Unit that will be berthed in Ballantyne Port in downtown Vancouver
throughout the entire event. Visitor security and 2010 traveler
security will be very important, and there will be no doubt extra
security and precautions throughout the Olympic Athlete’s
Village, designated ceremony areas and of course the Vancouver
Whistler Olympic venues. All the venue cities within Greater Vancouver
and Whistler and the Sea to Sky Highway will also be patrolled
by armed police forces and the RCMP throughout the Games to ensure
that the Vancouver 2010 security can protect all international
visitors, tourists and Olympic travelers from around the world.
In addition to this added security force for the Vancouver 2010
Winter Games security for visitors and 2010 travelers to the city
will feel protected, but not enclosed. There will also be other
Vancouver 2010 security in plain clothes at the Olympic venues
and celebration sites to thrawrt any attempts at disrupting the
Winter Games. All in all, visitor security and 2010 Traveler security
in Vancouver will be at the highest level the city has ever seen.
In addition, Vancouver has always been one of the safest urban
cities to live in North America.
2010 Olympic RCMP and Police Cops Elated with
Carnival Cruise Line Housing Deal
As reported by Bob for 24 Hours Vancouver newspaper, the Carnival
Elation Cruise Ship has now struck a deal with local RCMP to charter
it as a 2010 Vancouver Olympics Integrated Security Unit. Passengers
who booked a Mexican cruise holiday on the Carnival Elation cruise
line for the Vancouver 2010 Olympic Winter Games, however, are
not very ecstatic as their holiday plans have been stopped abruptly
by this latest announcement. The Carnival Elation is a two thousand
and fifty two passenger 2010 cruise line that normally operates
3 to 5 day trips from San Diego down to Baja Mexico. However in
early 2010 before the Vancouver Olympic Winter Games, the Carnival
Elation will cruise empty up to Vancouver to gear up for the event.
Just announced by the RCMP Vancouver 2010 Integrated Security
Unit, Carnival Elation cruise ship will be one of three ships
that will be chartered for the police force and security during
the Winter Olympics at a tune of $76 million. Housing more than
five thousand cops for the RCMP, the 2010 Vancouver cruise ships
will also house troops during the Winter Olympic Games and the
deal was finalized in April 2009. According to Vance of Carnival
Cruise Lines, “The Carnival Elation was scheduled to be
in service and we are contacting guests sailing on these voyages.
They will be offered alternative ship or sai dates or can opt
for a full refund of their cruise fares.” In addition to
the Carnival Elation 2010 cruise ship chartered by the Vancouver
RCMP and troops, there are also two ships from Carnival’s
Seattle sister company Holland America that will also play the
same role during the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympic Games. The
nineteen hundred and sixteen passenger MS Oosterdam and the twelve
hundred and fifty eight passenger MS Statendam will join the Carnival
Elation Vancouver 2010 cruise ship charters for the RCMP at Ballantyne
Pier, east of Canada Place. In addition, lawyers for the RCMP
are also waiting for a Washington judge to decide their March
31st application to dismiss the breach of contract lawsuit by
Cruise Connections Charter Management. Back in November 2008,
Cruise Connections sued the RMCP after the failed $57 million
contract because of a dispute over payment, taxation and currency
exchange. All in all, these 3 Vancouver 2010 cruise ships from
Holland America and Carnival Cruise Lines will house more than
5000 RCMP, troops and police/security force for the Vancouver
2010 Winter Olympic Games.
The Security Measures for the 2010 Winter Olympics
has been stepped up with the Southeast False Creek Vancouver Fence
for 2010.
The Plaza of Nations company that features dinner and dances on
cruise ships is shouting out to the city that they don’t
want to fenced out during the Vancouver 2010 Olympic Games as
the city ponders security measures and doing a False Creek fence
for the duration of the event. According to 24 Hours Vancouver
newspaper, James of Pride of Vancouver Charters is he is very
worried that the Vancouver 2010 Integrated Security Unit will
dash his dreams of making money during the Winter Olympics. The
RCMP led Winter Games security force plans to stretch a fence
across False Creek Vancouver for the 2010 Games under the Cambie
Street Bridge, from January 25th to March 24th, 2010. This is
to protect the Southeast False Creek Olympic Village. In addition,
security boats will also escort boats that need access to the
False Creek Vancouver area and the Olympic Village during the
Winter Games. If the False Creek security fence is passed, MacMillan
suspects that passengers cannot board from the Plaza of Nations
even though the Edgewater Casino will remain open during the event.
By Bob of 24 Hours.
2010 Olympics Marine Security Closures
Just after the cruise ship dining and dancing company mentioned
that they didn’t know anything about the False Creek security
fence, 24 Hours now reports that the operations management company
of the Granville Island Aquabus is also not aware of the 2010
security plans for marine security closures during the Vancouver
2010 Winter Olympics. Jody of Aquabus Ferries said the he met
with VANOC, Vancouver city officials and Granville Island regarding
possible closures to the marine waters during the Vancouver 2010
Olympic Winter Games. However, they were overlooked by the RCMP
Vancouver 2010 Integrated Security Unit. He said that he is not
surprised that a floating fence will be erected closer to the
eastern False Creek marine area at the Cambie Street Bridge, but
that is all.
