There is a deep homelessness problem here. I must say I was taken aback by the scale of the crisis here in the Downtown Eastside.
It's glaringly apparent in Vancouver that for quite some time... successive governments have failed to create the housing that is necessary. You have a legacy of misguided government policy that has led to this massive crisis in housing and homelessness.

sounds like more demand to me! people are so desperate to go to vancouver they'll sleep in the streets! this has got to put upward pressure on housing prices!:rolleyes:

Well here's a creative way they've been freeing up some Vancouver housing supply for resale. Too bad the cops are onto them and will no doubt try to shut-down a good thing. Amazing the lengths the officials will go to in order to maintain an asset bubble, eh...

Thursday, November 08, 2007
Almost two dozen Metro Vancouver police chiefs and commanding officers turned out in force Wednesday to announce they will join Vancouver police to launch a regional attack against gang violence.

"We have to stop the killing and safeguard the public," Vancouver police Chief Jim Chu said Wednesday in announcing the latest strategy aimed at quelling a recent spike of gang violence that has claimed four lives on Vancouver streets within a week and 19 so far this year across the region...

...The announcement followed the latest gang-style double murder at 70th and Granville, which occurred just after 2 a.m. Tuesday as two dark-coloured SUVs boxed in a late-model leased Mercedes. A gunman from one of the SUVs fatally shot two men in the luxury vehicle...
