Out of the cities that put in a bid, who should host the 2006 world junior championships?

London/Kitchener of course! :D

Truthfully, as long as it's a community that supports junior hockey all the time, I'll be fine with the selection.

The WJC has never been west of Alberta. It's high time (no pun intended) it come to B.C. The Vancouver/Kelowna/Kamloops bid should get it. With the Olympics also coming, the region is going to be hosting quite a few international events to practice in the coming years.

I will go with Vancouver.

Not only because of my British Columbian bias (;) ), but also because I think it will be a great pre-Olympic event.

I'm not sure how involved Kamloops and Kelowna would be, being that they are both at least a 3-hour drive away, but Victoria could see some games in their brand new 7,500-seat arena, and even Nanaimo has a 2,500+ seater that could see some of the lesser-known teams play there.

Edmonton should host.

Too late.

The 2006 tournament was awarded to Vancouver a couple months ago.
