Things to do in Vancouver This Weekend January 23-25, 2015

This week it was confirmed that Vancouver is the second least affordable city in the world — but at least we’re not a No Fun City! The Robson Square ice rink is still open for free skating, we have a boat show and motorcycle show, the PuSh Festival, winter farmers market, and more all happening this weekend.
