In a feat of engineering, crews cut free and lowered the old Pattullo Bridge's iconic steel arch intact during an overnight operation over the Thanksgiving weekend.

The Fraser River skyline changed considerably within the span of hours. #vanpoli #vanre

He's also a thief, but that doesn't mean he's wrong 🤷🏼‍♂️. I do think the housing market is a bubble and with rising rates ontop of it...and inflation and tariffs and now energy problems...

Brilliant. Sim is for the billionaire & multimillionaire developers, killed renter office in a #RenterMajorityCity, gave corporate welfare to his #VanRE Donor owners

And Pete Fry IS for the little guy

Reinforces the contrast between the two

Lots of good policies here

With a large % of Millennials buying homes from 2020-22, when interest rates were low, and interest rates much higher now, this was always going to happen.

Fun fact: US and Denmark have mortgages with the rate set permanently, not renewed every X years.

Vancouver is a #RenterMajorityCity.

Ken Sim's #DeveloperParty ABC Vancouver killed off the city's Rental Office:(

55% of the city’s households rent, yet these renter households survive on a median income of $63,200, compared to $100,000 for homeowners.

You know what would be a good question for a Vancouver plebiscite?

Do you want to drive out domestic #VanRE speculators like Poilievre, #OffshoreGregor, foreign buyers & foreign capital from Vancouver RE market by legislation & only have homes for locals living in them?
