Coles: airport style security expected at all venues.

I don't know how they expect to pull this off. Consider this:

Hockey games are at: 12:00, 4:30, 9:00.
Hockey games are typically 3.5 hours long.
That leaves ~1 hour to get everyone out, and everyone in.

How can I sit in 2 hours of security and still see the game? Are they going to corral us outside the stadium waiting to get in?

Moreso, how am I going to see back-to-back games?

[StylinRed]

Its going to be a mess


and CBS news (american btw) was saying our Security is the most costly EVER @ 900million ???!!!

like wtf.....

This year's Olympics is very strict. No liquids and no knives of any sort at all (even pocket knives). You will be asked to abandon it or come back without it. I work for GSS and I'm trained as a x-ray screener. Our goal is to get 200-250 people screened at every xray+mag per hour and there's ususally 2-5 xrays at every portal. Bigger venues like Stadium will also have multiple portal entrances. The guy on the left is actually one of my co-workers.

8 gates x 5 xrays x 250 == 10,000
Canada place seating: ~20,000

Thus at best you're predicting 2 hours.
This just isn't going to work for that many hockey games.

Can you address my concern above: with only 1 hour between games, and 2 hours required to screen everyone, are they going to corral screened fans? if so, where?

I don't work at a specific venue, so I can't tell you how that's going to work. However, I do know for bigger(more populated events) additional screening teams will be deployed to speed up the process. As well, express portals may be set up for people without bags to xray so that hopefully will really speed things up. As long as you stay in the venue, you do not need to be rescreened. I hope that helps.

[danny_d19]

Hockey games aren't 3.5 hours long, more like 2.5

[taylor192]

Hockey games aren't 3.5 hours long, more like 2.5

When you watch on TV, sure. Skip skate/anthem, click, sitdown, watch, click, skip 3 stars.

At the stadium you want to be there early to watch the players skate, the anthem, have some time to get drinks/food before the game, watch the game, stick around for the 3 stars - then negotiate the crowd out.

That's easily 3.5hrs if you're lucky, and now Vanoc wants to add another 2 hours to it.

I'm glad they spent a lot on security...

Why are flags of non participating Countries considered prohibited? I wouldn't carry a flag of one but I can't see any good reason to not allow them. There total gestapo, next we'll be asked to board trains and spend the Olympics at camps.

Where does it say that? I plan on bringing a Canada flag to every hockey game, even if Canada is not playing.

I heard it on the radio, I think they mean Countries not taking part in the Winter Olympics but I still think it's retarded. If people want to support their Country whether participating or not they should be allowed to IMO.

[Tapioca]

There has to be a fine line between security and enjoyment and I think VANOC has erred on the side of security. Unless CSIS, RCMP, etc. know something we can't possibly surmise, the money spent on security seems to have been overkill.

I would be concerned about that 2 tonnes (or whatever it was) of ammonium nitrate that went 'missing' earlier in the fall.

Unfortunately they'll need to spend more, there are still a few holes in security that I have voiced concerns with to the Integrated Security Unit. I have a few clients coming in that I'm co-ordinating private security for, some are even at hotels where heads of state and dignitaries are staying at and amazingly there are still going to be a few areas of concern at these venues, hopefully these are dealt with by games time.

dude i'm a screener with gss xray ppl have it easy u get tons of breaks lol. Anyways its going to be pretty chaotic during game time. from what i can see most of the money were spend on hiring MORE AND MORE ppl, I went to all my trainings already although i feel confident comes my first shift i know many that are still shaky on the procedures and my xray frd didn't even get to touch the xray machine during training and her first shift is already coming up next week lol.

anyways too ppl coming to the watch the games live, please check to see the list of prohibited items, don't bring unretractable umbralla, don't bring flag pole stick the whats allow and hopefully we can make it a smooth and fast process.

The money IS spent by the RCMP. They are the one who contracted the security companies who, in turn, contracted us. As well, for every 2-3 portals there will be a bilingual police officer in case any problems may arise.


Just a note to k-dub, not that I care, but I saw co-workers get in trouble because they were taking pictures while we were inside any venues, so just wanted to give you a heads up so you don't get in trouble. Their really strict about the whole security protocols xD.

[Ax2-Y]

"This is exactly the same process as in Torino, in Salt Lake, in Beijing," Damnavits said. "We're alerting the public they will have to do this so it's not a surprise when they arrive."

at venues like GM place or the opening ceremonies there are going to be something like 16 portals open at a time. The portals are also on the fringe of the venue, not at the front doors. you can come early, get through, and hangout inside the secure area. I am assuming that having people wait in the secure area is how they are going to deal with the turnover during hockey games and such.

I personally think the money is well spent. The Integrated security unit really cant win here with the haters though. if nothing happens, then it was a waste of money. if something does happen, they didnt do a good enough job with the huge budget. lose lose.

[Hondaracer]

rather be safe than sorry.

im gonna go to the opening ceremonies like 3 hours early and just drink/eat beforehand inside the gates, fuck waiting last moment

I was at the Hawks game recently..game started at 7..I think i was out by like 9:45 even after watchin the 3 stars...I dont think I've ever sat in a hockey game that lasted 3 hours from the initial puck drop..cept that massive 7 period OT game in the playoffs

the full black uniform, i heard this from a coworker look in the uniform handbook and it doesn't mention the value. the light blue one looks nicer but its not exactly winter gear, i think i can use the CSC one for snowboard if there is not heavy snow, don't think the volunteer can do that in theirs

Don't forget that only Visa will be accepted at the venues.

[Eff-1]

Weeks ago they made a big deal about how we needed to buy bus tickets RIGHT AWAY in order to reach venues. They even offered a discount to those who bought tickets early.

So I listened. And I did.

Event starts at 7pm. So I figured i'd buy bus tickets to get me there around 6pm. I figured that would be enough. I thought I was smart buying them so early, so I'd have first choice at the available bus departures.

NOW they are saying "security this security that blah blah" and they want me at the venue THREE HOURS before.

WHHHHHY didn't you tell me that before I bought my bus tickets. Morons. Now I'm concerned I might not make it to my seats in time.

Bunch of monkeys running the show. All of them.

[K-Dub]

I'm actually worried. I was up last night hanging out in the TV lounge with some other people and all I heard was negative things. Horror stories, people quitting left and right, people not getting their pay, etc.

It just seems like CSC & Vanoc has gotten so desperate they are hiring anyone who is 19+ and can walk, talk & read. Actually I don't even kno about the talk and read, we have people from all over its kind of insane.

As for the pay, the bus drivers who shuttle us back and forth from Vancouver-Whistler and around the Whistler area, were promised a full uniform. All they got was a jacket. No pants, no boots, etc like us. Also they weren't even asked to submit a void cheque for their direct deposit for payroll. Who knwos if they're going to get paid?

CSC started hiring back in the summer around August and has repeatedly said they are done hriing in November, but yet there are people here who were hired in December. The downstairs room @ Main & Terminal may say they're not hiring anymore, but that's just bullshit. You can come upstairs to the 3rd floor and they'll give you a 5 min interview. The girl I was talking to yesterday said that's how long her interview was! When I went for mine mid october, it was much longer and thorough.

Oh yea..I also heard that 500 people quit last Friday.

Worried much? Yea. If CSC does not live up to what they've said in regards to pay (16/hr + 2.5/hr bonus upon completion of all shifts) I think there will be a HUGE class action lawsuit come end of March. They've already deceived us by saying we would have nice accomodation. We live in fucking storage containers for fuck sakes.

Yea I agree with you, we aren't true security. They emphasized this, said that we were "screening". We screen people coming in, but if shit truly goes down, we can't do anything, nor would we be trained to do so.

When I was hired, they said we would be getting 90 day BST licenses, and that it would be paid for. Found out from my friend who is taking security that to get a BST license in BC, you need to take a test. We took no such test!!

We don't have true security licenses, and the ones that we are given say that is' only effective under supervision, aka the Supervisors who have BST 1 and the RCMP who will be around. I think the ratio is 10:1 BST. What's funny about the supervisors is that they got the same training as SCREENERS, the people doing the wand and magnetometor (the walk through thing) and so they have no training on anything related to the X-Ray machines. There are things that ALWAYS have to be searched, such as pills, bottles, knives, nail clippers. Heard yesterday that one of the supervisors told them that ist okay just let it through. Uhhhhhh...............

So yea, this whole "security" thing is a joke, CSC is turning out to be a joke. Even the HR person I talked to today asking about my schedule (which I don't have yet) said that she's frustrated and she's resigning.
