The ABC reign has been a series of unprofessional debacle. Let’s get them out of their misery and back to whatever they used to do before.
Can't pay staff a living wage. Watching Mural festival go, and other cultural festival go, and justifying $2 million dollars to keeping the celebration of light with no business model in place. ABCs Priorities... Time to say goodbye to all of you. #Vancity #vanpoli #evictkensim #goodbyeABC

This year is the 20th anniversary of my arrival here in Vancouver to take the chief planner’s chair at 36 years old.
It’s the longest by far that I’ve lived in any city, and it especially feels like my true home because we’re raising our kids here.
I’ll keep working hard for a better Vancouver.

Where do you spend your money?!
Every car in your city represents $8-12K/year being sucked out of your local economy instead of being spent on housing, goods & services.

30 km/h for cars, trucks, suvs in a city is the reasonable approach.
This mindset that speed is everything is debunked easily when you look at data. Cars are stuck in traffic and intersections most of all.
No point killing the other road users.

Another example of the absurdity of our system of zoning and neighbourhood control is when NIMBYs can fight and block *daycares* in neighbourhoods.

Sophie Ngo and her husband spend three hours every day driving between Richmond and Vancouver just to drop off their two kids at different daycares. It is the only way they can find care. "I don’t know why it’s so hard," she says. She is right.
