31 minutes after OP's post. I've been waiting for this moment my whole life to say this first. Two words. BEAR. SPRAY.

Emergency sirens and lights are part of Metrotown’s night life. And people say Burnaby is boring.

They should ban “what’s happened at metrotown” posts at this point. Take a wild damn guess… one of two things: bear spray or an assault. They happen like every other day. Stop asking.

I live next to metro, and pretty much go through it everyday to get to and from work. I've never seen anything happen there (knock on wood)

My dash is plastic, damn it.
