Councillor @SeanOrr has food security on the agenda this week at City Hall.

The motion proposes common sense measures:

- Identify City-owned land in Food Priority Zones
- Protect culturally significant, affordable retail
- Pilot a public option for affordable groceries

I miss my friend

[No Context BC Gov @NoContextBCGov]

Today would have been the 51st birthday of former Chilliwack MLA Dan Coulter.

At the request of a follower, we're posting some of our favourite clips of Dan. Hopefully they'll help you miss him just a little bit less today. 🥲

Ken Sim showing whose side he’s on. Hint: it’s not the side of people struggling to find affordable housing. It’s not the side of renters. It’s not the side of a vibrant, caring city.

[Amanda Burrows @BurrowsAmanda]

So blanket rezoning is good unless the blanket is for people who actually need social housing. The Broadway Plan proves height isn’t the issue. Who the homes are for is.

[Amanda Burrows @BurrowsAmanda]

ABC voted in opposition to affordable housing. Every council vote tells you who the city is being built for. This one was loud and clear.

[Jordan Reid @JordanNReid]

In Ken Sim’s defence, $17,000 probably only covers like one, maybe two VIP FIFA box tickets… He had to find the cash for those tickets somewhere!

[Rod Mickleburgh @rodmickleburgh]

How penny-pinching can @KenSimCity and his council get? The city has cancelled it's modest $17,000 grant to
Repair Cafes, a marvellous organization that repairs objects for those who can't afford new ones. Now the Cafes are in jeopardy....$17,000!! A pittance #vanpoli

> community advisory committees $11k
> baby-changing tables $56k
> Britannia Community Centre $450k
> VIP FIFA tickets $13,500,000

someone who is good at the economy please help me budget this. my city is dying

[Amanda Burrows @BurrowsAmanda]

$13.4M for FIFA VIP suites? While people bear the burden of this budget’s cuts to arts, climate action, community services, and even baby-change tables? Vancouver shouldn’t be paying the price for this Ken Sim majority ABC Council’s choices.

[Amanda Burrows @BurrowsAmanda]

Hi everyone, I’m Amanda Burrows! I’m a renter, a community-builder, a non-profit and faith leader and, with your help, @OneCityVan’s candidate for Mayor of Vancouver.

[Jordan Reid @JordanNReid]

@vancolour From the great minds and coding that make Grok say Elon Musk would win a boxing match against Mike Tyson…

[Jordan Reid @JordanNReid]

How long until Ken Sim and ABC latch on to this as a “solution” to bring back all the services they have to cut in their budget…

instead of just maintaining services with a modest property tax increase that the majority supports

[Josh Pringle @PringleJosh]

Canada’s capital asking for donations to support city services.

Donate between $5 and $25,000.

@BowinnMa Oh, I’m so sorry. Absolutely a forever good cat.

[Don Davies @DonDavies]

Just heard the tragic news of the horrendous attack at the Lapu Lapu festival. I am praying for all the victims and their families.

[Jordan Reid @JordanNReid]

Siding with an employer to try to block a union’s access to workers isn’t what I would call worker solidarity.
You are the company you keep.

[PressProgress @pressprogress]

This Liberal candidate claims she supports ‘workers’. But labour leaders call her track record ‘disingenuous’.

BC labour unions say Liberal candidate Stephanie McLean worked for an ‘anti-union’ law firm that is ‘widely vilified in the BC labour movement’

[Jordan Reid @JordanNReid]

Ugh. This is the riding where I grew up. I really hope voters elect good a good MP on April 28 and don’t get stuck with a lately-Liberal who thinks representing a community is a part time job.

[Andrew Mercier @AndrewMercierBC]

Voters in Esquimalt-Saanich-Sooke may be interested to know that when their Liberal candidate was an MLA in Calgary, she considered it a part time job. 🧵

[Don Davies @DonDavies]

I am deeply honoured to receive the endorsement of @Puglaas . Her integrity, courage and leadership inspire us all to champion justice, equality and reconciliation.

[Jordan Reid @JordanNReid]

@jbtwickens Love this so much!

[Rob Shaw @RobShaw_BC]

In one of the more interesting moments in the campaign, @42kareemallam - who was @KevinFalcon’s leadership campaign manager - whips up the crowd in Yaletown and explains why he’s taken out an NDP membership to vote for @Dave_Eby

[Ravi Kahlon @KahlonRav]

Unbelievable. Jordan Kealy is pushing a chem trail conspiracy ***today***

Rustad and his candidates are still actively spreading bizarre misinformation. 1/2

[Sunita Dhir @SunitaDhirBC]

I’ve lived here for thirty years. I’ve worked here. I’ve raised my children here and like countless @bcndp candidates I want the best for my community. This is my home and tomorrow I’m hoping you’ll choose me to represent it - please get out and vote! #bcpoli

[BC NDP @bcndp]

With John Rustad, conspiracy theories are a feature - not a bug.

He was the guest of honour at an anti-vaccine conference. Here’s what he said about it.
