At the BC Legislature today with the BC Urban Mayors’ Caucus meeting with ministers and Opposition MLAs about community safety, supportive housing pressures, and the rising costs facing cities. Strong partnerships and practical solutions matter. 🎥 Watch my update from Victoria.

📉 Housing + rents down 📉 Crime down 📉 Overdose deaths down These improvements come from the same data sources critics have cited for years—and they show ABC Vancouver’s policies are working. And while it takes time for perceptions to shift, the numbers tell a clear story: progress is happening.

City land is one of Vancouver’s most powerful tools for funding fire halls, senior centres, pools, and rinks—without raising taxes. When that approach was voted down, I asked staff what it means for our infrastructure future. This clip explains why that choice matters.

I supported the DTES Housing Plan because doing nothing wasn’t neutral. Aging buildings have continued to deteriorate while replacement stalled. This plan enables SRO replacement, strengthens tenant protections, and creates real pathways toward safer, more livable homes in the Downtown Eastside.

Thrilled to see the iconic Mushroom Studios sign saved and heading to the Museum of Vancouver. Huge thanks to Valerie Biggin for championing this effort. The studio helped shape Canadian music for decades. Proud to help preserve this piece of Vancouver’s cultural history.

A long day at City Hall—but important progress. We’re investing in community centres & public safety, pushing for better housing funding, advancing an MLB opportunity, and moving forward on Gastown. 🎥 Quick update:

Why is Vancouver the only municipality in B.C. with its own standalone building code? Today our @Vote4ABC council supported a motion to review regulations that may be adding unnecessary costs and delays to housing delivery. We can support climate action AND affordability at the same time. Watch ⬇️

In a crisis, you act fast. But Fianna Fail and Fine Gael keep delaying regulations on short-term lets. Because the housing crisis is not a crisis for landlords.
