Should requests for research participation be allowed on NiceVancouver?

Hello NiceVancouver community!

Your mod team needs some help.

We get a fair number of requests to share surveys with you. Some of these are academic surveys, some are entrepreneurs collecting info about possible business ideas, some are students doing projects for courses.

So far, we generally have not been approving the requests.

But our goal is to provide a free and open Vancouver community discussion that is as nice as possible. Ideally, this means minimal moderator intervention.

So we wanted to put it to the community for a poll. Feel free to add comments and thoughts below.

Here's the question we are trying to answer:

Regarding survey and research requests that follow our existing rules (eg: relevant to YVR, meet our standard to be nice, etc) what should our approach be?

What is the impact of the European heat dome on vineyards?

With a 1 in 87,000 year high temperature in Bordeaux this week, and a heat dome over most of France and Spain, I know this will have an impact this early in the growing season.

Can anyone shed light on just how bad this impact could be and what the variables are from here?

Is the 2026 vintage effectively spoiled at this point or only at risk?

What are vineyards doing long-term to mitigate and is there any discussion among AOC regulators to shift varietals as the climate changes?

ETA: thanks for all the insights!
