so the tri-cities is Port Moody, Coquiltlam, and Maple Ridge? I've lived here for years in BC, heard the term, but only had a vaguest notion of what tri-cities is supposed to mean. I lived in Vancouver, now Victoria and Tri-Cities always made me think it was 3 USA cities. It just sounds American to me  :-\

750 000? yeah, I could see circulation being that high, doesn't mean every paper gets picked up and read, but good for you! I always flip through those sort of rags when I see them! If I lived in the Tri-Cities I'm sure I would have already seen it today at the coffee shop!

The pacific north west seems to be a bit of a BTC hub, eh? This is a good article, I'm sorry I sound cynical, I've been arguing and stressing all day, but good on you (I'm assuming you are one of the subjects of the interview, not the publisher of TriCity News)

I hope you manage this well, I've heard a BTC ATM here in Victoria just went bankrupt... not an easy market right now.
hope you can weather the storms and hold your position! If things go well you will be very well positioned indeed!

Of course readership can be less then distribution, and yes I am the subject in the article. Vancouver and the GVA in general are really turning into a strong point for BTC in Canada. I didn't hear about the Victoria unit but our's are doing fine, we don't take a salary from them , just cover costs so theirs alot less pressure.

cool. yeah, I didn't mean to sound cynical, like I said (prolly should of just erased first line there, sorry) but yeah. There's a little free paper in every community, and I know they get read, I read them always. good press!

I heard the BTC ATM at Uptown Mall in Victoria went out of business, but it was merely hearsay. Just commenting that with BTC price in the dumps right now, I think any BTC related business is going to have their work cut out for them. Sounds like you're covered. Kudos! +1000 & all the best. Hope I get the chance to use one of your machines some time soon.
Peace

Could it be that some ATM operators, take too high a percentage fees, and then the guys with the lower fee's push them out of the market?

Just asking.... There are some pretty greedy people out there.  ;)
