Letters to The Vancouver Sun: Adversarial relationship between mayor's office and health authority serves no one well vancouversun.com/opinion/letter…

English

And don't forget Ken Sim:
❌ Shuttered the Renters Office
❌ Blocked new supportive housing
❌ Voted against strengthening the Empty Homes Tax
❌ Presided over record Homelessness
🗳️When we evict ABC, we'll protect tenants and fight for housing you can actually afford.
SEAN ORR@seanorr
Remember folks this is just asking rents. The decline in asking rents, as averaged from rentals.com is concentrated in newer, higher-priced buildings. These figures do not reflect what the vast majority of renters in Vancouver are actually paying.

@rusmaynard @PeterMeiszner @KenSimCity Maybe stop giving them illegal deadly drugs? Poverty pimps are the worst of humanity!

B.C. Coroner: Deaths of people Homeless rise for 5th year in B.C.

Where's @PeterMeiszner's concern? @KenSimCity?

@ThomasDigby1 @fr_aquilini Of course the parks board is against this. It would actually make sense.
English

Rookie mistake for @fr_aquilini and Sedins to leak Britannia practice facilty plans when all municipal leadership is bound by NDA. Zero public consultation. Zero public disclosure. Don’t lead with your chin.

@RobShaw_BC @timhodgsonmt @Dave_Eby @liberal_party doesn't care about the West. Never has never will.
English

.@timhodgsonmt tries to explain why BC's softwood lumber sector got $12m in federal aid today, when Ontario steel, aluminum and copper got $1 billion.
This is a sore spot of @Dave_Eby who has blasted the feds for this.
Hodgson calls it a "mischaracterization" to compare them.

@CityNewsVAN Why are FN involved? Do they want to be paid? Are they the government in charge now?

The City of Vancouver, the B.C. government, First Nations and the Crown corporation that owns BC Place say they are working with "private partners" to keep the Whitecaps soccer team in the city. vancouver.citynews.ca/2026/05/14/cit…

Canadian schools are ditching Mother's and Father's Day celebrations to 'reflect diversity.'

@elenoresturko Are you really surprised by this? It's going to be a disaster.
English

David Eby is delaying releasing the FIFA costs until the Legislature rises for the summer so that he can avoid facing accountability.
British Columbians deserve to know the costs now.

@KirkLubimov @liberal_party did this to themselves with mass immigration.
English

The Liberals have turned Canada into a banana republic.
Have a listen to pandering Nate Erskine-Smith listing all the things that happened at the Scarborough Southwest Liberal nomination race vote;
> 34 more votes in the ballot box than recorded voters.
> people in the ballot box instructed on how to vote - including over the phone.
> using documentation that the Party said they would not accept.
> countless of temporary immigrants who couldn't tell where they live.
* dozens of people who were taking pictures of their ballots (vote buying).
Pure corruption.
And this is Liberals doing this to themselves...so think what else they would do.
Canada's democracy for you.

@COPEVancouver Shame on Cope for enabling these sick people, they need help not more poison. Shame
English

Shame on all the ABC councillors supporting Ken Sim's politicization of a health issue.
Amplifying stigma and contributing to moral panic to block health authorities from fulfilling their mandate to save lives.
It doesn't get any lower than that.

@MarkJCarney We are not joining the EU. Their bureaucracy destroyed their economies. Way too many regulations in the EU. Look at the migrant situation.

I’m trying to earn your trust.
There are some who will say I should be more aggressive, ask more tough questions and push harder.
There are some who say I shouldn’t speak to certain voices, and that I platform the bad people.
I am trying to earn the place as a reasonable place for thoughtful, honest conversations where we don’t seek just a middle ground but higher ground.
I’ll fall short. I’ll fail my own goals and I can name interviews that I would do differently in hindsight.
If you have feedback - tell me. I don’t fear insults, criticism, judgement, or snark. I fear not improving.
The mission remains the same: deliver nuanced discussions on pressing issues.
I appreciate all the guests who share their time and knowledge.
