How is the Marguerite Ford NOT a fair comparison to the site proposed for Arbutus and 8th? Both... - don't use the vulnerability assessment tool - both are in excess of 130 units - both have only opened the door to homeless singles only (and forget women and children) #facts

More flaws with the The Globe and Mail piece. The site proposed for Arbutus & 8th is not a Social Housing project. It is a Minimal Barrier Transition home with unsupervised space for injection onsite.

If the majority of Vancouver residents think that the city is headed in the wrong direction, why does city staff keep pushing its agenda? dailyhive.com/vancouver/vanc…

Here you have a data + research driven approach we need to end our homeless + opioid crisis + what does David Eby and Sheila Malcolmson choose to do about it? 0. We’ve done enough as a citizenry to get this wrong. Time to get it right. vancouversun.com/opinion/column…

It reads in BC Housing own shelter guidelines that “women w/children, women fleeing violence should NOT be accommodated in the same shelters as single men.” But putting 140 of them next door is ok? Melissa De Genova 鄭慧蘭 Will #SaveTheWomenatSanctaMaria have to be our next cause?

“…the Vancouver Charter that stipulates parties affected by zoning and development amendments have a fair opportunity to understand and respond to such proposals.” At least the charter is on our side. Right Melissa De Genova 鄭慧蘭? vancouversun.com/news/local-new…

Corect me if I'm wrong. John Horgan and BC NDP were in the Courts using all the "tools in their toolbox" 2 years ago to stop ANY use of the TMX pipeline from Alberta to Vancouver for carbon fuels now B.C. can't survive without it and is under gasoline restrictions. Incompetence??

Melissa De Genova 鄭慧蘭 More cuts needed. #backtobasics #coreservices only stop funding all the lobby groups with our property tax dollars

Setting your intentions for the New Year? Keep this in mind. Zero consultation for a failed housing model that wreaks havoc on a quiet family multi-school zoned community + stands to also affect hundreds of struggling businesses along West Broadway BIA could end up your legacy.

When policymakers on $300k a year set their minds to it, they can do a really effective job of messing with those earning $30k, for absolutely no good reason.

So is sunlight protected on ALL School Yards as this Draft Policy Headline suggests? No. The Arbutus Proposal casts a shadow for over 1/2 the day + covers the ENTIRE playground + school next door. The applicant also submitted a false study to the UDP that we corrected. 🤦‍♀️

Press Release: BC Housing Proposal A Failed Model That Doesn't Fit kitsilanocoalition.org/blog/a-failed-…

ICYMI @kennedystewart + Paul Mochrie compromised themselves tonight when they said protocol is to push it through + that stalling would lose funding — resounded like two pieces of styrofoam being rubbed together. Not true. Scope creep. Funding is the BC + Feds responsibility.

Disappointed Mayor and Councillors voted to refer a report they know is flawed and reduces public safety by putting recovering women and children at risk.

BC Housing and city staff did not come prepared with answers to even the most basic questions from councillors and the community on the first evening of the public hearing for the Arbutus and W7th / W8th rezoning application. #vanpoli kitsilanocoalition.org/blog/basic-que…

Well, a sad reflection on the lack of democracy here at COV with the complete disregard for engagement, and care for families at risk, while the lies from City Staff to push their agenda was epic! Vote for Melissa De Genova 鄭慧蘭, Sarah Kirby-Yung 楊瑞蘭 & Colleen Hardwick for Mayor. #Vanpoli
