I’m an occasional resident of Vancouver, and would love to meet more of the local community. There should be a Casey file here, any information would be appreciated, and Morgan Poliquin organized a very successful Mises event in Vancouver some years ago.

I would be interested in participating in, or worst case leading a liberty.me oriented weekend day hiking group, were that of interest to others.

Hi Rick,
Thanks for the info! A hiking group is a fine idea – when do you expect to be in Vancouver next?

As an addendum to my initial post, Vancouver is now home to a Students for Liberty chapter at Simon Fraser University, thanks to Liz (Liberty.me profile= http://liberty.me/members/ljaluague/ ) who rallied this week for club status and got it – congratulations Liz!

  Morgan Poliquin CEO of Almaden Minerals is a local libertarian who sponsored a highly successful Mises circle in Vancouver some years ago. Jayant Bhandari, a participant at liberty.me consistently draws 100 or more people to his capitalism and morality conferences in Vancouver. I believe there is an active Casey ” phyle” here.
  
  If we could organize an event amongst all of these groups, it is likely that the turn out would be substantial.
  
  Anybody with a sense of humor for being ringleader?

      Yeah Jayant is awesome! Other liberty related groups in Vancouver are Decentral and the Vancouver Life Extension Society. I plan on moving back to Vancouver within 3 years or when wheat prices fall below 5$ :/

We should definitely rally around Jayant’s Capitalism and Morality conference in July. My own Sprott-Stansberry conference immediately precedes it, and brings Doug Casey, Adrian Day and Chris Mayer into town. If we could get SFL, LOTR, the Casey file et al, together, it would be a lot of fun

    Jayant usually organizes a dinner at the convention center after capitalism ans morality. Perhaps the dinner could be open to LOTR , liberty.me and SFL
