Mike Jagger

Thank you @BillTieleman ! #prorep #bcpoli

@SSIMagazine @ADT ADT is bragging that they will now try harder to call the correct Fire Dept in the event of a client alarm signal? Seems like a pretty low bar for service. Calling the wrong # isn’t much better than calling nooone. #security #wrongnumber

.@ADT will use West Corp.’s emergency response link to ensure homes and businesses monitored by ADT benefit from the most accurate location data available. #Security securitysales.com/business/adt-w…

@pwaldkirch @fabulavancouver If it was me being asked to make a quick decision on a budget bigger than a phonebook inside of my first few weeks on a job where the entire management team involved in creating the budget in the first place had been fired, or were no longer around, my quick answer would be ‘no’.

@ProvidentMike @fabulavancouver Delay would cost the city a lot of money and throw planning into disarray. How much public money and resources should be squandered to allow for councilors who haven't done their homework? Or would delay really be about grandstanding for political reasons? twitter.com/fabulavancouve…

Staffers going through a lot of budget details, answering councillor questions from past meeting, i.e. where is housing $, where is climate change $, etc.

@fabulavancouver Three rounds of questions, all over the ice, would appear to be a good reason to push this budget back. Nobody understands it. Way too much money for this much confusion. They’ve been on the job for just a few weeks. Seems completely unreasonable to expect them to vote in favour.

Now Stewart asks if people want to go into a third round of questions. Aand ... another round of questions coming.

@steeletalk @bcndp @keithbaldrey @CKNW They’re doing a great job studying ridesharing. Why would you doubt them on this?

So the @bcndp is going to "study" congestion solutions to the Massey Tunnel - meaning no bridge or tunnel until a business case is presented in late 2020. @keithbaldrey explains how politics have played a role in the transportation planning. @CKNW omny.fm/shows/steele-d…

@PtFry @amoraexcyna @wanzerelli @AdrianeCarr @councillorwiebe Is it being used to fund the extra costs the NDP has chosen to add to the Pattulo bridge upgrade by handpicking specific unions rather than open tender? Lots of opportunities to address housing w/o adding new taxes.

@amoraexcyna @wanzerelli @AdrianeCarr @councillorwiebe Yes, show me the money too. That's the question you'd need to ask of your MLA. What is the school tax being used for: Site C? Modular Housing? LNG tax-breaks?.. is there a formula for remuneration based on where the tax is being extracted? Show me the money.

@JJofBC @christineeboyle You’re only a millionaire if, after subtracting all liabilities, there is still $1m left over. Someone w a $3m home may have $2.5m debt against it. Someone else w/ two $750k condos owns them free and clear. The millionaire escapes this tax. That’s the problem w this tax.

We're in a real housing crisis, folks. This #schooltax debate felt out of sync with the realities of that crisis. As I said in the debate, we need to build some perspective about who is struggling in this housing crisis and what that struggle looks like. thestar.com/vancouver/2018…

@christineeboyle Why does someone who owns three $2m homes free and clear get preferable treatment to someone who owns one ‘worth’ $4m, but only has $1m in equity? Or compared to a renter who chose to invest $ in stock market vs real estate? Having govt arbitrarily guess who has $ is dangerous

One of the biggest privileges of home ownership is the options that it provides - home owners have many more choices than renters: not just deferring this additional tax, but renting out part of your space, or selling and buying something worth less than $3M.

Proud of my 16yr old daughter launching finchdesign.ca after many months of hard work. Her first pop-up shop is this Sunday, 1-5pm at Southlands Nursery @ 6550 Balaclava. Come check out the women’s (& now men’s) pjs everyone should be wearing (finchbymj on Instagram)

@TomDavidoff Aren’t those the ones that have gone up in price since the school tax was announced?

@TomDavidoff Where’s the middle? Where was the middle when the current $3M homeowners purchased?

@TomDavidoff If city & prov keep stacking taxes on everyone in the middle, only ppl who will be able to afford a house will be ultra-wealthy who use YVR for a few weeks each year. Moving a $7M house to $6.3M isn’t an affordability win. Only way this tax is defensible is w income tax offset

Hey @CitizenYan -- love your platform.. you've built your brand on fighting bullying. How does this square with @kennedystewart's campaign manager Neil Monckton bullying & threatening private citizens over tweets? Twice we know about.. how many more? twitter.com/ianb/status/10…

@Betamax1080p @drex @kennedystewart Totally disagree. But again, that’s not the issue anymore. Kennedy Stewart has had a few days to figure out how best to respond. He has chosen the worst possible way. That should concern everyone thinking about who to vote for.

@ProvidentMike @drex @kennedystewart The fact that you knew the call was being recorded and he likely didn't tells me that the playing field was asymmetrical ...

@Betamax1080p @drex @kennedystewart It was recorded because Monckton called me twice at my office, which is a security company, where 100% of calls are recorded. No intent to leverage, I wasn't expecting a threat. Also, the bigger issue here is the response to all this, not the original incident.

@drex @ProvidentMike @kennedystewart Can you explain to me why Mike Jagger would record a personal phone call? It seems to me it was done with the intent to try to leverage this politically ... #Disingenuous #Agenda

@wanzerelli Yes. Saw it. It’s on theme. Disturbing.

The insanity continues. I didn’t say what Stewart did was illegal. I said that when he bragged about his “full” list of supporters, he was lying. If he has union support, why hide it? His reaction is 100x worse than the original issue. #vanpoli #vanelexn18
