City Council sold off Vancouver's public mountain views today They've privatized the view cones in one sweep for the benefit of the rich. Make ABC Vancouver may pay for this move in 2026. #vanpoli saveourskylineyvr.substack.com/p/city-council…

The view cones were created in ‘89 because the planners then had the foresight to protect mountain views for the public from future real estate development obstruction. But Sarah Kirby-Yung 楊瑞蘭’s short sightedness just sold off public views meant for generations to enjoy. #vanpoli

the lack of public consultation on such a major policy change, wiping out cherished view corridors for one of the most beautifully-located cities in the world, is truly shocking #vanpoli

We loved making wontons with #ChinatownYVR Auntie Cindy to help her debut Cindy's Ho Yummy wonton stand at the Chinatown Variety Show. We also made the viral tanghulu! At Chinatown Together, we use our resources to economically empower community folks, not gentrifiers. #vanpoli

This is a really good question. Here there was a permit in place to use this cultural place. But somehow the city’s new swagger/glitz and glam council department supporting downtown developers privatizing views also wins out in kicking out local people in exchange for Film Crews!

This thread shows city council supports swagger/how things look to outsiders instead of local citizens using public places they have rightfully taken permits for. This is not how you run a city. Same council that is privatizing Vancouver spectacular views for developer profit.

How many times are Chinatown seniors gonna get kicked out of/stopped from using a Chinatown public space?! Shame on the City of Vancouver & Mayor Ken Sim for celebrating our Chinatown when it suits their gentrification agenda but kicks out low income Chinese seniors when it doesn’t!

A great #Chinatownyvr event by tomorrow! #vanpoli savechinatownyvr.substack.com/p/lineup-for-c…
