1/ Over the 2 years, I had the great honour of serving on @VPL's board. A few days ago, my service ended abruptly. Vancouver city council kicked me off the board and replaced me with a political crony. This never happens. City councils usually reappoint sitting trustees. #vanpoli

if you own a $2m home, a “punishing” 9% property tax increase would be $485/year.
if you rent an average 1-bedroom for $2,800, the 2% allowable rent for 2023 increase is $672/year.
As Vancouver seeks to avoid years of punishing property tax increases, councillors are now looking at fee hikes for everything from parking permits to business licences to the cost of owning a pet.

Warning:
Don't watch this at work Or you'll be a blubbery mess like me having to explain to clients why you're a blubbery mess.
Thanks for this @jonchiang!

The province gave 5.5 million for expanded food programs. ABC in fact voted to reduce that expansion by almost 2 mill. This is not something to brag about.
Facts and for the record
ABC led Trustees voted to expand the children's food program by $3.77m for the coming 2023/2024 school year. @OneCityVan and @COPEVancouver voted against it.

Yesterday mayor @KenSimCity said, verbatim, "We have a full bike lane on 10th Avenue."
I rode 10th yesterday and couldn't find it, can someone point it out? Is it underground?
ALT 10th Ave bikeway in Vancouver. A narrow street with cars on parked on both sides; in the distance, a car takes up nearly the entire road.

“According to ICBC data, under the status quo, a cyclist is hit every two days between 4th and 16th. Thanks to today’s vote by ABC, that status quo will continue.” onecityvancouver.ca/abc_kill…
