Lipservice. Election year. Respecting traditions and working with us on our own terms doesnt mean signing off developers (Lippmann) and contractors to gentrify the DTES a voting bloc with a large disproportionate amount of indigenous people. Dont let Vision Vancouver fool you with their shiny white lies, they are most definitely exclusive and deny many grassroots groups that advocate for social housing a voice, dent those that demand a stop to the rash of renovictions, as they have been come to be known here, leaving many marginalized vulnerable citizens in the streets and shelters, many whom are women and indigenous. It an outright economic assault upon the poor disabled and many are indigenous. Our pleas and protest fall on deaf ears the people here at large are convinced poverty is a persons own doing and the anti gentrification movement cannot gain a foothold with these libertarians at the helm makin themselves look like they actually give a fk about anything other than what they can take take take and say its ok because they acknowledged our territory. GFY Vision Vancouver you need glasses and a seeing eye dog.
