Undemocratic BC Bills 44, 46, 47 & 18 don't achieve housing affordability needs in Vancouver (or anywhere) so should be rescinded (Elizabeth Murphy) #vanpoli #bcpoli @murphyyvr cityhallwatch.wordpress.com/…

Very timely @douglasTodd article. It does not specifically mention @ahvancouver but it's totally about them. Key Q's: But how progressive, really, is YIMBYism? And why does it so often [always] dovetail with developer goals, fuelled by ideology of free-market, growth capitalism? #vanpoli #bcpoli
The movement opposing NIMBYism is powerful, but morally baffling.
People like Housing Min. @SeanFraserMP (right) talk a lot about “legalizing housing” & “inclusive” zoning.
But how progressive are self-proclaimed YIMBYs (yes in my backyard)?
My latest.

"@AYan604 said [the NDP's housing bill] puts Chinatown, Gastown & Commercial Drive under threat of redev't."
Don't be under the illusion the NDP housing bill is "pro-housing" or is making housing "legal." It's a giveaway to developers. archive.ph/n49MT#selection-2… #vanpoili #bcpoli

To paraphrase the poet T.S. Eliot, if you don’t speak up now: “This is the way our world ends: Not with a Bang but a Whimper.”

People voted for change, but...the election results may end up with no meaningful changes where they are needed the most: in affordability, land use planning, and development. @DouglasTodd @charliesmithvcr @VanPoliMorphus #vanpoli biv.com/article/2022/11/eliz…

"Integrity commissioner has recommended the co-chair of the Vancouver Renters Advisory Committee be reprimanded for comments made against a city councillor." Also against me, so I'm glad to see him called out for this conduct. Online abuse has to stop. vancouverisawesome.com/highl…

Thanks, Dr. Ley: "From many years of studying housing questions in Vancouver, I’m supporting a candidate who understands the needs to balance new development with preserving older affordable housing and respecting existing plans for gradual neighbourhood densification. #vanpoli – at Vancouver, British Columbia

If you're thinking about STRATEGIC VOTING for Ken Sim in hopes of ousting Kennedy Stewart, think again. Both Ken Sim & Kennedy Stewart have accepted donations from the same developer. Vote @CllrHardwick & @vote4team. They have not accepted any developer money. #vanpoli #Vancouver
