a time honoured Vancouver Pastime
and let me tell you, it sucks to be poor here.
aletta 1954 (Age 55) Female Vancouvver I'm an opinionated old crone, but I've bloody well earned it. I still believe in the individual's opinions and energies having the possibility to change the world. Ripples from casting a stone in the water of time. Indifference is a sin, so I cannot in good conscience keep my mouth shut.
locally our city government is making sure that the poor are driven from their neighbourhoods against their will, to make a quick buck during two weeks of Winter Olympics in 2010 - residential hotels closed and upgraded for tourists or demolished for other projects and no new affordable housing even in numbers to replace what was destroyed - Saferide program relocates vagrants out of the area with no resources when they are dumped outside the city's transit boundaries Shame!
