A Vancouver landmark, one of the only last surviving air domes in the world, crushed to look like everyone else and replaced with an ugly retractable roof. Yaaay Vancouver ... dont stand out when you can blend in
This is story is dumb. Every similar stadium to BC Place (Metrodome, Silverdome, RCA dome) had similar incidents due to snow loads, severe thunderstorms. The room is designed to deplated slowly to allow escape if occupied.
The stadium operators acted contrary to their Duties to use heat and ensure zero accumulation of ice on the Teflon Fibreglass membrane. The $320,000 cost of using heat was redirected to bonuses. These acts and/or omissions could have killed someone.

The roof needs to be certified by an Engineers.
