An excellent point: “The photos of the Vancouver riots look like Cardiff on a Saturday night.” It’s true! This fantastic collection of photos and video from Vancouver last night — you see, Boston won the Stanley Cup? Which is the big prize in hockey, don’t you know? — does bear a striking resemblance to any ordinary night of the glassing capital of the world over in Wales. And here is our favorite video from Vancouver.

Mazel tov, Canada. (To be fair, as Vancouver is one of the most diverse cities on earth, there were also some ASIANS at the riots.)
