I don't know if should be considered irony but the Thai princess (along with 16 escorts) just arrived in Vancouver to do a little business and check on her million dollar home which has been restored after a fire. She has to sign some insurance papers apparently. She will also be staying in Whistler for a few days of skiing.

Seems a bit odd that we are sending our hard earned bucks to Thailand while the princess gads about.

I'm not saying that we shouldn't be helping the people because we should. Its just that it seems insensitive and downright ignorant of the Royals.
