Last week, The Breaker website obtained the City of Vancouver's contract with FIFA ahead of the upcoming 2026 World Cup in the city. The contract details how a large zone around B.C. Place Stadium will have to be closed to traffic and some restaurant advertising may have to be removed. Ian Tostenson from the B.C. Restaurant and Food Services Association says the implications of the contract are unclear, but they could be disastrous for bars and restaurants in downtown Vancouver.
