NIMBY Mayor spews NIMBY bullshit. Thank God North Van is upgrading their sewage treatment plant. #vanpoli

You want more housing? We need better transit and bridges first. A Metro Vancouver mayor is pushing back after the province imposed housing targets on some municipalities. trib.al/czqGEY2

District of North Vancouver Mayor Mike Little said transportation infrastructure needs to be addressed first before the municipality focuses on building new homes.

Colleen Hardwick spent the election day driving around in a caravan of vehicles. The perfect metaphor for a car centric city. #vanpoli

The @CambieReport introduced us to the urbanist-preservationist axis. I'd make a case for a fun-no fun axis as well. #vanpoli Marissen: more homes more fun Stewart: more homes some fun Sim: few homes more fun Coupar: no homes no fun Hardwick: no homes ✊🏻✊🏻✊🏻 no fun ✊🏻✊🏻✊🏻

Kinda wack that some Christians are so upset about loan forgiveness when our beliefs are based on Jesus dying for a debt we can’t pay…

Of course the beaches are easier for the @ParkBoard to clean if there are fewer logs. Fewer logs means fewer users. I bet the parks would remain cleaner too if all amenities were removed. Please restore beach logs to pre pandemic levels.

.@ParkBoard Please return the number of logs on beaches to pre-pandemic levels. They are an essential characteristic of the Vancouver Beach.

As a kid, the Hope Dairy Queen meant seeing family soon. Reunion. It came to mean a convention-end hangover, a grueling midnight drive beginning, the kindness of good friends, the majesty of chainsaw carving + my 30th birthday. Staphdown is gross. Deus gratia Regina lactis.

As a Vancouver Island child, Splashdown was always this pinnacle of wonder, the first sign after getting off the ferry that you were in a true metropolis. But the Hope Dairy Queen was the real sign that the super long road trip had begun in earnest. Which advances?

Why is there no list of Canadian post-secondary campuses by area? Has anyone done this important journalism?

Always a good time being told I'm not gay enough to make gay jokes. Or give commentary on Vancouver's gay history. Which ... I have two problems with.

Councillor Carr, however, is almost right, outlining 3 criteria: "project does meet our policies, it has our public support, and meets public needs". She's missing the all-important "someone wants to build it" and "can get built". #vanpoli #affordablehousing #vanre

TIL Jean Swanson is basically so far removed from reality on how the housing market (which will ALWAYS EXIST) that I have given up hope on her helping solve the housing crisis. #vanpoli #vanre dailyhive.com/vancouver/jean…
