I think some of you are just being willfully ignorant at this point.
The DTES isn’t main and Hastings anymore.. effectively the DTES is this area, if not BIGGER:
Ahh and since I posted last there are some very nice goodies to pop up..
An erratic man harassing people as a bus stop ultimately spitting on a baby, very nice. I’m sure all you parents of young children can appreciate this

Or how about weekly assaults on bus drivers? Who can no longer even stop on the DTES due to tents etc.

Felony violence also seems like it’s cooling off!

Trudeaus tough on gun crime policies working wonders.. how about a shoot out on a fucking highway? That would certainly go over the same virtually ANYWHERE else… lol

In 5 days you have a series of heinous crimes, you have the premier and the mayor saying publicly things are worse than ever
ItS nOt sO bAd!!!!
On top of the endless stats I posted on the last page, seemingly overlooked by everyone who claimed downtown was in fine shape! There are additional statistics here regarding a continued 50% decrease in downtown foot traffic:
https://vancouver.citynews.ca/2022/1...-foot-traffic/
The number one driver? Public safety? Weird!
By the way, if those stats on the last page regarding discarded needles wasn’t enough. My friend who works groundskeeping for the Vancouver school board has told me that basically half their job has turned into picking up crack piles and discarded needles at school grounds now. They never did this in the 12+ years he’s worked there doing the same job but now at the start of every day, every job, at every school, you go around picking up discarded needles.
You see what JD13 is saying all over the place. Left leaning nut huggers will literally be assaulted and end up living in a cardboard board box on the sidewalk grasping to this ideal that this is better than “cOnSeRVAtiVE VaLUes” whoever’s values we are living under now are turning this city and country into a complete shit hole.
Like.. we are completely over run with crime, violence, addiction, etc. things can’t get much worse. What is going on right now very clearly is not working.
This forum is so funny. Like back around 2010 pre and post Olympics when you can argue Vancouver and probably BC at a whole was at its peak, people were all on here saying “Vancouver isn’t a world class city!!! This isn’t Shanghai or Hong Kong!!!”
Which was laughable at the time. Now all those “world class” cities are complete and utter shit holes and Vancouver is turning into one as well but now people are defending its current state? Lol
Edit*
Oh yea and the armed robbery at gun point on commercial drive lol.. fuck yea love it
