Four years ago, the Downtown Eastside was in a terrible state, with tents lining both sides of the street and high levels of violent crime.

Your ABC Vancouver team has worked hard to make structural changes in the Downtown Eastside: protecting the most vulnerable residents of our community, holding criminals to account, and making Vancouver safer for everyone.

It started with removing dangerous encampments, where large amounts of weapons, dangerous structures, and unsafe conditions were discovered.

Building on that progress, Task Force Barrage brought increased police presence to the area, resulting in a 44% decline in robberies, an 18% decline in violent crime, and a 34% decline in structure fires.

Task Force Barrage was so successful that the VPD established a dedicated police district for the Downtown Eastside and surrounding areas, ensuring the neighbourhood receives focused attention and support day in and day out.

In addition, the opening of a new police training centre in the Woodward’s complex will bring a daily presence of VPD officers and officers-in-training to the neighbourhood. This brings long-term stability, renewed activity, and vibrancy back to the area.

We know there is still more work to be done, but after decades of decline, we’re proud to see this heading in the right direction. We must keep moving forward.

@oconnor322 @jordanbateman Oh there’s lot to get from that kind of investment. It’s the contrast that’s striking.

@oconnor322 @jordanbateman Compare spending on other tactics by campaign and it will tell you the full story.

@iamkennethchan @farhanmohamed My OCD needs this to be upright. I can’t.

Powerful statement from Chief @Aaronpete_

Read to the end. 👇

[Hon. Lisa MacCormack Raitt P.C. @lraitt]

Composed and logical in explaining a complex position, pushing back on the framing that seeks to play gotcha politics. Great first outing Madame Leader.

100% class! I hope @NVanCaroline stays closely engaged. We need her on this team for the long haul. #bcpoli

[Caroline Elliott @NVanCaroline]

The race is over. The members have spoken. And I feel good.
Congratulations to @KerryLynneFindl on her win and to my fellow contestants @iainblackbc, @yuri_fulmer and @PeterMilobar for their strong campaigns.
Thank you to my incredible team who believed in me, and to everyone who participated in this process.
Now, it’s time to beat the NDP so we can restore hope and prosperity to the province we love.

People like Christian deserve to see a future for themselves in Vancouver. Nobody should have to worry about affordability or encountering needles in parks.

Vancouverites must be a city that is safe, affordable, and works for everyone. That is exactly what the ABC team is focused on delivering.

@Brandon_Reddy @marissenmark You mean New Democrat.

[kyle @kyulls]

@JimRossStrategy I can’t find it anywhere.

[kyle @kyulls]

@jessecmccormick @BradWestPoCo Actually, it the clear case why you should vote Conservative.

[kyle @kyulls]

@alexconconi @KerryLynneFindl @Conservative_BC I wonder what would have happened if Black overtook Elliott on the 3rd ballot. It was close.

[kyle @kyulls]

@drotchford_BC @CookCaelen Loool. So predictable. Nothing can we worse than the last decade under the NDP.

@rodmickleburgh @CalvinMacNeil Is she?

[kyle @kyulls]

@pollingcanada Was it?

[Samantha Ettus @samanthaettus]

NYC Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch is the definition of strength and poise. Every Jew afraid to speak up at work in these challenging times should take her lead.

[Dylan Kruger @dylankrugerbc]

Born and raised in Delta, my vision for our city is grounded in the community that shaped me.

After eight years on Council, I’m running for Mayor to build on Delta’s strengths and ensure its best days are still ahead.

My leadership is defined by bringing people together, finding common ground, and delivering practical solutions that make life better for residents.

With experience, integrity, and a deep connection to Delta, I’m ready to lead our community forward.

After an outcry from businesses & residents, BC government announces Vancouver Coastal Health will not open an overdose prevention site next Sheraton Vancouver Wall Centre, one of BC's largest hotels.

At least not for now. #bcpoli #vanpoli
