farewell, basket case

So, Brazil has won the cup. Good for them.
It's the end of the month, which is traditionally moving time in Canada. One of the apartments in a building a block away from mine is obviously becoming vacant; the apartment seems to have been emptied out, and someone's put the word "BYE" up in words 40 cm tall.
It makes me wonder if they mean to tell the city goodbye, or just the neighbourhood. Knowing that so many people are fleeing BC (Basket Case), I somewhat suspect it's the former.
