This is a great move, and well timed to align with the new BC Builds initiative. The motion could be strengthened by prioritizing non-profit housing partnerships. The market can’t build workforce housing affordable to ECEs. 👇🏻 vancouversun.com/opinion/column…

The good/bad neighbour narrative reveals a lot about a town’s values. In this episode, the golf club doesn’t pay taxes because they’re good. Non-profits saving lives and running art programs do pay taxes because they’re bad. cbc.ca/news/canada/br…

Working on a presentation for next week, and can't stop staring at this slide 🤯 Nearly 9/10 single moms in Kimberley and Parksville spending more than they can afford on rent.

The next time someone asks why we can’t have more detox beds and housing, we can just tell them: The original application submitted under the outdated 2014 Vancouver Building Bylaw (VBBL), which was updated in 2019. Application must be updated to meet the 2019 VBBL. Obvi.

Thanks to everyone who has made a donation, and to everyone who helped to promote. We've reached the $1275 mark and we'd love to add to that total to provide just a bit more support to the 12 residents who have been impacted by fire. E-transfers to [email protected]

Thanks @bkclifford 🙌 When we say that investments into affordable housing since 2018 are historic, this is what we’re talking about. 👇
