Intimate partner violence is an epidemic. To see an elected member of the Legislature charged with it is horrific.
To all survivors, we stand with you.
To Hon Chan, resign.
Cherry blossoms are beautiful, but please refrain from ripping branches off just to get a good Instagram shot or tiktok video. #infuencers #yvrchcherryblossoms #leavetreesalone

Sean Orr has filed legal action against Vancouver Mayor Ken Sim for saying to media without evidence that Orr was dealing drugs on Christmas Day
Just donated!
Two white nationalists I exposed in a recent article showed up to try to intimidate me in person last night.
This is a press freedom issue.
Here’s what happened:
This still stands
Politicians like Vancouver Mayor Ken Sim and Coun. Lenny Zhou who spread lies about a colleague for political gain undermine trust in our political system. They don't deserve our respect or votes, @adriennetanner.bsky.social writes.
A Vancouver councillor wrongly accused of distributing illegal drugs by Mayor Ken Sim says he is considering a complaint to the city’s integrity commissioner and a possible defamation lawsuit.

So far more than 19,053 British Columbians have been killed since early 2014, when unregulated fentanyl started showing up in the illicit drug supply.

“COPE warned that Ken Sim’s jacked-up permit fees are going to make community events more expensive - or stop them from happening at all. This is the impact of austerity."

This isn’t just a mistake an apology to @seanorr.bsky.social can fix. This is opens up the city to huge liability.
What other decisions has Ken Sim made that we now need to question the source and reliability of them?
I didn't think Ken Sim could stoop any lower than he already had. I was so incredibly wrong. #notmymayor #evictkensim
"This makes Vancouver look bad. This makes us look like a not serious city. It’s embarrassing, I’m embarrassed on his behalf for this." - @seanorr.bsky.social

Worth noting that on a different website, multiple ABC Vancouver officials follow accounts that post constantly about how Sean Orr is a terrible human being and make all sorts of unproven claims, including one account that creates AI videos of Orr doing all sorts of illegal or evil acts
This isn't the first time that Ken Sim has been involved in a smear campaign against @seanorr.bsky.social. Sean's interview is worth a listen - for its honesty, grace, and concern for the public who are harmed by Sim's dirty tricks
IMO we need more humanity like Sean's in politics. Solidarity.
Excellent frame by frame analysis by Brenna Perez:

A store that has never made money and was gifted a generous tax holiday closes despite the apparent successes of project barrage, and ABC are using it to call for mandatory treatment. Yikes.
"Drug users are being scapegoated for all the failures of our broken system" - DULF compassion club members.
"We’re low hanging fruit. It’s easy, you can always blame the drug user. Vilify, criminalize, stigmatize: Makes it so you want to crawl away and hide. These are lies."

NEW: Vancouver city councillor @seanorr.bsky.social proposes giving renters the first chance to buy their buildings

In an interview this week, Ken Sim said that he had a list of all the times he said no to the Vancouver Police Department, and said a lot of their budget increases were out of the city's control.
We got the list. We looked at the budget.
Here is a fact check.

The headwaters of the St George Rainway. An actual current with riffles this morning, flexing the stems of the aquatic plants & bringing the sound of running water. This all-seasons park is the best thing COV's added to the neighborhood in my time here (25.5 yrs!)
Anyone who cares about Vancouver, whether you share Sean’s politics or not, should read through his multiple threads of citizens’ statements; folks range widely in age and income bracket but not in sentiment. ABC passing this budget will alienate the entire city.
Ken Sim got told families are leaving faster than ever and was like “We’ll send changing table money to the police.”
ZERO MANDATE PEOPLE POWER SAYS NO TO ABC CUTS
People Power showed up at City Hall.
And this is just the beginning. 360+ still on list to present.
Every single ABC Councillor should be doing some soul searching about what they've heard so far. Do the right thing. Stop these cuts.
Vancouver doesn't have to be this way.
