Whistlerites are being invited to "Apres in Action" this afternoon, an event where townspeople can converse about the biggest topics facing the resort town.

The April 2 event is being put on by Whistler 2020, which has collected results from more than 200 online survey responses polling what's hot in Whistler. Now they know - and they want to kick up some active discussion and seek recommendations for action in the future.

The three top survey topics are as follows:

• The Costs of Life - What are the benefits to a life in Whistler? What are its drawbacks? This topic focuses on affordable housing and all other things one needs to maintain a high-quality life in Whistler.

• Childcare/Daycare - forever a hot topic in Whistler. It has municipal councillors storming out of meetings. Is there enough childcare in Whistler? What can be done to take care of Whistler's children?…
