With crime, drug use, and homelessness as high as they are, why wouldn’t City of Vancouver want to spend multiple millions of $$$ on the money laundering boondoggle that is Mass Transit? Sounds like par for the course
Just like the bike lanes on Columbia, your vote doesn’t matter. The city will do what they want.
