WRONG and very dishonest. The plan was to reduce speeds on *select* commercial arterials with high pedestrian volume and crash history. Think streets like Denman, Main, Commercial Drive. This is where 93% of fatalities occur. ABC chose speed over human life. #publicsafety

Yesterday, ABC voted to keep Vancouver moving. While the non-ABC parties on Council wanted to lower speed limits on major arterial roads to 30 km/h and 40 km/h, ABC chose to stand with commuters and residents. Speed limits must be driven by common sense, not ideology. Let's keep Vancouver moving forward.

.@Lucyincanada and other opposition councillors voted to protect people by reducing speeds on the streets where 9 in 10 fatalities and serious injuries occur. Starting in areas with high pedestrian traffic. This is "ideology"?

A win! Council unanimously supports cooling rights for renters in Vancouver by ensuring landlords can’t ban cooling devices. Thank you to @Lucyincanada & @seanorr for your leadership on this and for recognizing @FirstUnitedDTES for our work. This will save lives.

Just like when they decided a letter of reprimand for discriminating against me (as a new mother) was too much. If they aren't willing to make even symbolic gestures to acknowledge wrong-doing, they are clearly endorsing this behaviour.

This mailout has gone out across the city. Typically, it only contains information about how to pay your property taxes. This is a political message. And the City of Vancouver isn't one of Ken Sim's big money backers. This is a totally unacceptable use of public resources.
A pamphlet reading 'Message from the Mayor". Copy below: Message from the Mayor Across Canada, families and businesses are facing growing uncertainty with rising costs putting pressure on household budgets. By implementing a 0% property tax increase for 2026, Council is taking a back-to-basics, back-to-community, approach to ease the burden on residents and business while prioritizing frontline services. Zero means zero. Council's mandated approach delivers a 0% property tax increase while protecting the frontline services residents rely on. Council's approach delivers a 0% property tax increase while protecting frontline services residents rely on To achieve this, Council directed City staff to find efficiencies, reduce costs and generate new revenue, while maintaining the essential services that residents rely on every day, including public safety, community grants, road and sidewalk maintenance, community centres and library hours.

Thanks @Lucyincanada and @OneCityVan for being the only ones to stand up for the multiplex program that's already having such a positive effect across the city. Sad to see the majority call environmental regulations "red tape" but limits on much needed housing "responsible"

I am proud to accept the endorsement of the @vancouverdlc. Every single Vancouverite deserves an affordable home, strong public services, a good job, and a living wage. We’ll return respect for workers to City Hall when we retake the Mayor’s Office on October 17th #vanpoli

Unfortunately, ABC eliminated provisions of my motion that would have prioritized accessibility and earthquake readiness. I look forward to championing those priorities again when the Capital Budget comes to Council.

Today, I was proud to bring forward a motion to fast track the elimination of our City's Infrastructure Deficit by increasing the Infrastructure Levy to 2%. Austerity and Zero Means Zero aren't how we get to a livable, affordable city for all. Investment is.
A unanimous vote on Lucy Maloney's motion to fast track the elimination of the infrastructure deficit. The heading reads PRESENTATION - VanStat: Facilities Condition and Maintenance Councillor Klassen is absent, all the rest of Council has voted in favour.

A newly constructed temporary plaza built next to an East Vancouver restaurant is raising questions as to whether it was accelerated due to the business’ connection to the mayor’s office. ctvnews.ca/vancouver/article…

Did the Vancouver mayor’s office fast-track a public plaza to benefit a staffer?
