This week, we officially recognize the Haida Nation’s Aboriginal title rights in the laws of this province, marking a historic first in Canada. (1/3)
BC government has confirmed $150 million in funding to build the long-promised Vancouver Olympic Village elementary school. It'll be one of VSB's largest elementary schools with a capacity of 630 students, plus childcare. #bcpoli #vanpoli #vanre dailyhive.com/vancouver/vanc…
The West End is good. If you think the West End is bad, you are obviously and trivially wrong But more importantly, if you think the economic and planning policies that turned a neighbourhood of detached houses into a neighbourhood of apartments is bad, you are also wrong

BREAKING... Musqueam, Squamish & Tsleil-Waututh First Nations have expressed their official support to abolish the Vancouver Park Board. The Charter amendments will also align with the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples. #bcpoli #vanpoli dailyhive.com/vancouver/mst-…
here is my very important journalism on the proposal to have a permanent sign that says “VANCOUVER” in big letters
The more I read about the mayor's bad faith complaints, the more I'm glad the Province stepped in with leadership on blanket rezoning, abolishing public hearings, and fixing development charges. thetyee.ca/News/2024/02/1…
An Italian mountain village? A Greek island? Nope! It's America's first car-free village, and I got to stay in it. A 🧵on what it's like. TLDR; remove the parking mandate, enable livable cities.
Squamish, Tsleil-Waututh Nations want seats on the Vancouver Police Board: vancouverisawesome.com/local-news/squ…
Order your copy today! “Tiná7 Cht Ti Temíxw: We Come From This Land - A Walk Through the History of the Squamish People” is the first book published by the @SquamishNation about the Squamish People. Available at most bookstores now: pagetwo.com/book/tina7-cht…
Traffic could look much different this summer in one popular Vancouver neighbourhood. On Wednesday, the city council is talking about making some drastic changes to Gastown. vancouver.citynews.ca/2024/02/07/van…
@michaelgeller This actually is my duplex-lined street and when the signs went up, I was thrilled and excited! Some friends in the neighbourhood may not be happy, but I'm glad to welcome more neighbours.
Next Wed Council votes on a #Gastown Pedestrian Zone Pilot for Summer 2024. I think it moves us in a good direction, with more space for people to walk, roll and gather! I’m eager to hear your thoughts. Read the full report here: council.vancouver.ca/20240207/docum… #VanPoli @VisionZeroYVR
I say this as a planner: Nobody enters the profession to measure setbacks and floor area ratio. We're going to keep having trouble hiring planners as long as the majority of their job is to enforce unjust rules that they don't believe in. cbc.ca/news/canada/br…

With @CityofVancouver Council about to consider a "Summer 2024 Water Street Pedestrian Zone Pilot" (yay!) we thought we'd offer five suggestions to strengthen the proposed initiative. You can read the full article on our blog & summary in the 🧵 vancouverpublicspace.ca/2024/02/06/997…
@michaelgeller This actually is my duplex-lined street and when the signs went up, I was thrilled and excited! Some friends in the neighbourhood may not be happy, but I'm glad to welcome more neighbours.
He finally does it. Pierre Poilievre morphs into Maxime Bernier, placing the blame for Canada’s housing crisis squarely on immigrants. Not exclusionary zoning. Not interest rates. Not lack of investment in social housing. Immigrants. #cdnpoli
Officials warned Sean Fraser 2 years ago that his policies as immigration minister were driving up housing costs. So Trudeau made him housing minister! No wonder you can’t buy a home. (CP conveniently fails to mention Fraser was the minister responsible).
@SteveSaretsky If you want to spew conspiricist bs have the guts to say it out loud
@ambulancecaught @SteveSaretsky To keep the country from going below zero for population growth?
Come on @CityofVancouver Councillors … Broadway is working now with four lanes & once your new subway is in it will have even fewer cars, so one lane each way & non-rush hour parking should suffice. Please be proactive and install bike lanes on both sides from day one.
@ignorantsapient I’m going to assume this is a good faith question :) No we shouldn’t cancel proposed density but we should collectively advocate for good density. We should ensure we’re building communities not just shelter. We shouldn’t allow this crisis to allow those with power to push…

It’s been a busy year for housing in BC. I want to recognize all the housing advocates in BC and across 🍁 who have been making the case and fighting for housing for the next generation. We were able to make the reforms because of all of you. 🙏🏾 More to come in 2024! #bcpoli

BREAKING... Transit-oriented housing development will be the law of the land in Metro Vancouver, across BC. Overriding cities: - #SkyTrain stations: Minimum 20 storeys within 200 metres; 8-12 storeys, 201-800m - Density for bus loops #vanpoli #vanre dailyhive.com/vancouver/bc-g…
