There is only Kingsgate Mall....it tops all categories....
For the past few days, I have turned off of Knight St. onto my street, and nearly hit some people standing in the middle of the intersection, oblivious to the world around them, taking photos of cherry blossoms…traffic backed up in the other direction. Sigh.
Did we read that BC has now over 400 health care professionals that have come from the states to work in BC? www.cbc.ca/news/canada/... If that was the goal, then a pretty good return on investment....just over $400 per person to get them to move to Canada for positions that needed filling
I live here...the cars exist here...but only for a moment or two, as they are quickly booked. You start looking for a car long before you need it, and game the system with the free 30 minute window.
Main St is shutting down again for Pleasant Day Festival! 🎉 From 16th to King Ed, we’re turning the street into a massive neighbourhood party. After welcoming 100,000+ people last year, we can’t wait to bring back the #music, #food, art, games, and local businesses. Everyone’s invited!

More an enthusiast…a big fan of the ellipsis
There is no such thing as too many!!!
Please…no more Rollergirl…not even in jest.
That is impressive…besides the obvious…the amount of time it would take to choose, never mind read that many books.
They are building the Broadway Line in that time span
Well, did I just see this has passed….colour me surprised.
Either way, as the mayor of the largest city on the metro board, he should have a bit more sway than Gotex Karen
Not 100%….but I think so.
If the city could have done something, they would have stopped this devastating detour. The is on the Province 100%… and on this project they’ve absolutely achieved peak government. Everyone possible hates it. But in their arrogance, they keep saying that this is better…for them
I think it needs to pass our city council as well…. And that’s not happening.
Dare to dream….imagine if we had a public transportation system that receives money from every possible level of government agency and installed public washrooms… that is the dream I am living for!
This is why we can’t have nice things
And it has lights…which are essential for letting the kids know when it is time to go home!
Is that the one near St. Joes Hospital? If so, it really needed it.
MP has more heroes than light poles…..which is why this needed to expand! There is also an issue of funding, and a slight technical issue around banner sizes….but I digress.
It featured local MP Heroes…..and has been growing as they added more. The local Legion worked with the MPBIA to swap out the banners
This program has been happening in MP for the last 6-7 years….
🚧 @neilwyles.bsky.social talks about how the next phase of the Broadway Subway rebuild — starting Jan 2026 between Main & Quebec — will impact Mount Pleasant businesses and locals.

Good luck with that.
You may not be a paid influencer, but I will say, you missed your calling as a runway model!
Correct, last weekend.
Father’s Day….the beginning of “festival “ season.
The City Of Vancouver plays a big part in when these festivals are held. There are only so many resources to go round.
It is like jockeying for position on the calendar
Sigh is right. What they really meant to say was thank you for coming out and supporting our festival and helping us highlight all of the fantastic businesses on Main Street. It is you who make it better and please have a safe trip home.
