Last week, the website, theBreaker, detailed the City of Vancouver's contract with FIFA ahead of the upcoming 2026 World Cup in the city. The contract outlines how a large zone around B.C. Place stadium will have to be closed to traffic, prompting major concerns from businesses in downtown Vancouver. In response, Coun. Mike Klassen says that only certain businesses — like those seeking to compete with event sponsors, or pop-up food stands — will be affected by the closures.
