Justice for all
UPDATE: Many commissioners, including Brennan Bastyovanszky, Scott Jensen, Laura Christensen criticize the decision. vancouver.citynews.ca/2026/04/27/van…
Let’s talk facts. The City of Vancouver, under Mayor Ken Sim and ABC Vancouver, is advancing one of the most significant proposed investments in community infrastructure in our city’s history. Here is what that looks like: $400 million proposed through the 2027 to 2030 Capital Plan to rebuild and renew five major community centres Dunbar Kerrisdale Hastings Roundhouse Kensington $44 million in recreation and park infrastructure investments through the Vancouver Board of Parks and Recreation This is not incremental. This is transformational. From the day I was elected as a Vancouver Park Board Commissioner, I have been fighting for exactly this. Real investment in our community centres, parks, and the infrastructure families rely on every day. For too long, these essential facilities were left behind while priorities drifted. We are now refocusing on what matters most. Strong neighbourhoods. Safe spaces. Accessible recreation. They say dreams do not come true. But in Vancouver, we are proving otherwise. We are fighting for our communities and delivering real results. Proud to stand with Mayor Ken Sim and the ABC Vancouver team as we get back to the fundamentals and build a city that works for everyone. This is what leadership looks like. This is what delivery looks like. @KenSimCity @ParkBoard @Vote4ABC @CityofVancouver @DunbarVillage @KerrisdaleCC @HastingsCommCtr @yvrairport @Canucks #yvr #vanpoli Learn more lnkd.in/gFTqPhCe
The @vanliberals plan for our community centres, pools, and parks is $1.35 billion. It’s based on what is actually needed, given the profound lack of investment over the years. Ken Sim is proposing a $1 billion cut from what’s required and $150 million less than the last capital budget. Sign up this April 22nd to speak at council and let Ken Sim know his plan won’t work.
Must be a slow news day. Let me save the City some time and money. Major League Baseball has several ready-to-go, shovels at the ready potential bids from cities with serious buyers (Nashville, Salt Lake, Portland, etc.) We have a 72 cent dollar, no stadium, and a Major League team already in Vancouver set to relocate if we don't get our shit together. A committee to explore the "possibilities" of MLB? Just grab any article that has come out in this market every single year like clockwork talking about the exact same thing. Read through those and call it a day. Vancouver is a world-class city, but its focus should absolutely NOT be on MLB. You want another pro team back in the city? Go try your luck with the WNBA or NBA where you already have a home ready to go. Good grief...🤣
Vancouver should become the next home of a Major League Baseball team. With the MLB publicly expressing interest in expansion in the near future, we see an opportunity to position our city as the next home for a franchise. This could be an opportunity to bring something truly special to Vancouver. An MLB team would be a significant step forward for our city and would create lasting memories for fans across generations.
Shouldn't be good enough for people in any language. Resign @LennyNanZhou @KenSimCity. You showed your true colours and moral failings in the initial rage-bait accusations. You're only apologizing because you got caught. Not fit to serve this city. Apologies NOT ACCEPTED #vanpoli
