The Province June 21, 2011 – Identifying looters and going after them in civil lawsuits is another way to “take back the heart of Vancouver,” says London Drugs president Wynn Powell.
“This is a sad moment in the history of Vancouver and our store was in the epicentre of the riot along with The Bay but I’m most thankful not to have to call husbands, wives or family about injured staff members,” said Powell.
Of utmost concern for London Drugs was that our employees at our Georgia and Granville store were able to get out of the store safe.
“We are grateful to our security staff and the assistance from the Vancouver Police Department that our staff were able to leave the store unharmed,” said Wynne Powell, London Drugs president and CEO. “This is a sad moment in the history of Vancouver. Our Georgia and Granville street London Drugs store has suffered significant damage and will not open on time today as a result of the rioting. We need to assess the damage.”
