Vancouver Is Awesome, and we are dedicated to everything that makes it that way.

If you want to read ugly, bad news about this beautiful city of ours, you’re going to have to look to traditional media and other blogs; V.I.A. promotes everything that makes our city awesome, from old to new and everything inbetween. We’re like the human interest piece on the news… only different.

No, its not a try out for Canada’s Best Dance Crew or Canadian Idol but there will be 20 pinoy/pinay DJs, dance performances and even a little kali stick fighting (for demo, not for gambling I presume) at SALAMAT, a celebration event for Filipino independance day, this FRIDAY at Century House. This is the 3rd year runing for Salamat and its brought together by SAMMIE JO PRODUCTIONS, SPECTRUM EVENTS and PROFILIC ENTERTIANMENT GROUP. This year’s event will also be a fundraiser for the ENSPIRE FOUNDATION. See this Filipino news CLIP to see what the Vancouver based Enspire Foundation is all about.
