Don't be naive. Translink can't even afford to maintain itself, let alone expand further. That stretch of highway was built in 1964. It's due for an upgrade. We've done enough pointless transit expansion to raise land values, and all its done is line landowners pockets.

This has been a known issue in the Lower Mainland for decades. It's almost as if it's...deliberate?

This whole session is a big developer bail out, and you know it. "Housing"... give it a rest. Housing for an affluent immigrant or 5 SFU students to 1 bedroom?

I just wanted to make an announcement that Bob Kronbauer, from Vancouver is Awesome, has blocked me on every platform. Does that mean Vancouver Sucks now?
A local Indigenous business owner asked what our company is doing to “actively advance reconciliation on Indigenous lands for Indigenous people,” sparking me to write this column that I had expressly planned not to - I just want to do the work. vancouverisawesome.com/opinion/our-co…
Boomers: NO, we just worked hard. GEN X: We were ignored, so we worked hard. Get a job Millennials: Mom and dad said they'd give us a down-payment if we gave them grandkids.

The way the threat of homelessness is weaponized by land developer interests with the overly simple argument of "supply and demand" is just plain dirty.

Never before has such a large cohort of the population— baby-boomers— been so comfortable and so selfishly uncaring. “I’ve got my home and yard, two cars, am mortgage-free and I couldn’t care less about anyone else.”
As someone working at CMHC in the 70's when we built 230,000 homes annually, I am always amazed it took many decades before we again reached 200,000+ annual starts.

@BrendanMcEwen In my own work I have discovered that not making it clear that I am a "both and" advocate (favouring leveraging market housing investment to gain non market housing) has put me, in the minds of many, in the so called "NIMBY camp".
I just learned that apparently the prime minister does a “Christmas Address”? Who’s gathering ‘round the tube for that one?
Is the “War on Christmas” a real thing? 🤔 @JJ_McCullough and I talk about it! This is VANCOLOUR on @CHEK_News: Apple: tinyurl.com/43prkyzz Spotify: tinyurl.com/2sy32t7p YouTube: tinyurl.com/ytrukbrn
Here is the completely insane way the prime minister characterized his opponent’s agenda: “Bring us back to ‘drill, baby, drill,’ ignore climate change, bring us back to father is the head of the household, women don’t get abortions unless they have a note from their husband…”

It's weird that Islamic fundamentalists have such a problem with neckties, yet no other article of western clothing. I mean, they're not wrong to call them a decadent symbol of capitalist excess, but so are those tailored sports jackets they all wear.
As we swagger or perhaps stagger our way to the end of the year, the city feels more split than ever among ABC supporters and detractors. @bychrischeung and I talked to supporters, critics and city hall watchers for this #vanpoli report card. thetyee.ca/News/2023/12/2…

A man at a tow yard just screamed at me on the phone, then screamed louder when I told him to stop. Repeatedly cut me off. Challenged that I was not a lawyer. Told me I did not know the law and that he knew the law better. Fucking disgusting. I am shaking with rage.
