I love Vancouver, and I hope our government is able to mitigate the housing crisis before it totally tears the city apart. Families and non-professional workers are being driven further into the suburbs by housing prices, sterilizing the core of the city and fomenting a bitter class divide. We need to make radical moves -- heavy penalties for vacant properties, aggressive densification, serious investment in mass transit... We're letting a small reactionary minority filibuster these projects and dictate the city's future. From what I've heard, it's much the same in SF.
