This is my breaking point, I’m so sick of this place. We can't seem to help ourselves from repeatedly complicating very simple questions like "Should children feel safe outside a school?" with endless studies, pilots and consultations until only the loudest voices remain.

I campaigned on ending Vancouver's apartment ban. Is that on @Vote4ABC's agenda for this Fall?

Six floors and corner stores - and prioritizing non-profit and supportive housing - is what housing leadership looks like. We'll see if they're up for it.

Congratulations to @christineeboyle for winning Best Municipal Politician from @georgiastraight!

@CityofVancouver why are the potted plants in the bike lane? I have put in 2 reports and no responses. This on Beatty near Robson Street. Been like this for 3 weeks. It is dangerous, very hard to get my toddler bike chariot past it.

@MDNOShaughnessy Loved the books, the TV series is better than average TV

@markeburge @NatalieCushing Curious what the details of the split?

Oops, in a quickly-deleted tweet Councillor Klassen accidentally posted the wrong article; one that gives a much more accurate representation of yesterday's vote.

Here's the story ABC doesn't want you to read, with excerpts below (🧵) https://t.co/q6W5iCehfL

SCHOOL BOARD ALERT: The Vancouver school board is considering the closure of Carleton Elementary tonight. The school is in the heart of Joyce/Collingwood - where hundreds of families and children will live in future.

[OneCity Vancouver @OneCityVan]

OneCity Trustee @reddyforchange tried to get childcare in the school budget but didn't have the support of ABC.

In Vancouver, just 39% of before & after-school care needs are met.

We can change this!

@LcpVan @CraigCameronWV @fumano If this is about supply we can rezone our SF neighbourhoods. That does not cost muni revenue.

[OneCity Vancouver @OneCityVan]

We are in the midst of a generational housing crisis. We need action.

This lack of movement on the Vancouver Plan is totally unacceptable.

Work must be expedited.

And high-priority pieces - like @christineeboyle's social housing reforms - must be implemented immediately.

[OneCity Vancouver @OneCityVan]

The Vancouver School Board has voted down @reddyforchange's budget amendments. As the cost of living climbs, they have voted against childcare, against school food programs, against adult education, and against school supplies.

@melodyma As a nearby resident I am curious what would you prefer instead? Currently it is a parking lot.

Hundreds of similar beautiful children were killed by his fellow citizens and thousands were kidnapped. Hundreds of thousands of Ukrainian people killed. Ovechkin has always supported the criminal Putin who caused these crimes. Continuation… https://t.co/v7z5ecHxuE

Deaths due to toxic drugs in 2022 has been increased to 2,314, making it the deadliest year on record. Unregulated drug toxicity is the leading cause of unnatural death in BC, accounting for more deaths than homicides, suicides, MVIs, drownings and fire deaths combined. #bcpoli

Stratas playing games, maybe to discourage renting due the B.C. government removing the ability for them to ban renters. Charging a $4000 non refundable moving fee. Wonder if people are seeing a lot of this and if the govt is watching . . . @SusieChant_nvs @BowinnMa @KahlonRav
