SUPPLY AND DEMAND
Re: “,” April 24, 2017. Web only
Build more and the new units will also rent for the “now-considered-affordable” $1,400 a month, and will appeal to yet more imports considering $1,400. affordable. How does this help local yokels who have contributed to the city for years? –Victoria Joss
Don’t kid yourself, this so-called housing crisis is a direct cause of the Bank of Canada’s ZIRP [Zero Interest Rate Policy] low-interest-rate regimen, which robbed senior savers to bail out criminal banksters the world over, causing a tidal wave of cheap foreign $$ to crash our shores. Time for a revolution? Perhaps when this bubble breaks peeps will demand the heads of banksters, starting with Poloz? –Paul Cassidy

PARK GOES TO POT
Re: “,” April 24, 2017. Web only
I didn’t go to this event and don’t participate in large events as a general rule. But the only people to blame here for the damage (if there is any) is the city/park board. They were the one who chose not to issue the permit. A permit would have made things like organized garbage collection, clean-up, and crowd control easy. Instead they decided to resist what is now a Â鶹´«Ă˝Ół»tradition. They could have chosen to work with the organizers, but instead were trying to push their shitty morals onto people. NO ONE TO BLAME BUT THE PARK BOARD. –Eric Busby
The city should build a reclamation park in that location, like the one in Olympic village. Get more resident beavers in Vancouver. –Jeff Talbott
Nice photos. Not sure why there has to be so much garbage etc. More bins needed ? is a long time. Seems a bit over-done.Ěý–Gail Stephan
So much for enjoying this beach for the month if May. Great timing...boo! –Allan O’SheaĚý
