Thank you @adriandix.bsky.social and @donvdavies.bsky.social for hosting a great holiday open house for the community to come together, and enjoy good food and conversations. There was even some lovely caroling!

Canada’s anti-greenwashing rules protect our health, but they’re under threat. Send a message to Ottawa: don’t give fossil fuel companies the license to lie to us. Choose truth, health and transparency instead. cape.ca/action/prote...

This Tuesday, Council continues hearing on DTES Plan changes. Uplifting the DTES matters — but the current proposals risk displacing the most vulnerable, without real alternatives. We need deeply affordable housing in DTES and across the city. Speak or write to Council to voice your concerns.

Proud to support this motion from Councillor @lucymaloney.bsky.social to restrict right-on-red to protect vulnerable road users like my family. Hoping to see it actually and comprehensively reflected in the City's Vision Zero Study.

This morning, Ken Sim and ABC killed Vancouver’s Social Housing Initiative, which would’ve allowed more non-market housing, like co-ops, social housing, supportive housing, to be built faster. Vancouver needs a City Council that will take action on affordable housing, because Ken Sim and ABC won’t.

I had a great time chatting with folks at last night's @ahvancouver.bsky.social holiday social. The room was filled with people with passion, enthusiasm, and expertise in housing, especially non-market and rental housing. Looking forward to more conversations in the new year!

Ken Sim is putting Citizen Committees on the chopping block, claiming that staff won't have enough capacity to manage them. If City Hall is so busy, why is ABC firing so many people? Please take a moment to tell Council how you feel about these cuts. More info: www.ionabonamis.ca/articles/cut...

As a board member at @womentcities.bsky.social, I’ve seen how people coming together can reshape the cities we live in so we can thrive. WTC’s advocacy and programs are making a real difference—but this work needs all of us.

@onecityvan.bsky.social is having a year end dance party this Saturday at the Polish Hall, 8-11pm. Would love to see you there! Tickets are only $25 and you can buy them here: www.onecityvancouver.ca/year_end_dan...

Hello! Welcome to my Bluesky account! For those who don't know me, I'm a second-generation Chinese Canadian born and raised in what is colonially known as Vancouver. I live in East Van with my partner, two kids, and a dog.

I attended my last meeting tonight as a Trout Lake Community Centre Association Board Director. It's been a blast over the past four years. I've met many amazing leaders and community members who pour hours of volunteer time each week to make our community richer, stronger, and more resilient.

It's been an incredibly frustrating day with Vancouver passing an austerity budget that will cut funding for important public services and infrastructure and fire hundreds of staff, even after over 600 speakers, including myself, speaking out against the harm that this budget will do to our city.

Just came back from the diaper "change-in" event at Vancouver City Hall. What a great turnout! We even sang some well-loved baby songs ) with brand new lyrics written by @margiesanderson.bsky.social (make sure to listen to my video in the comments)!

As you may have heard, Vancouver’s proposed 2026 budget will mean over $120 million in service cuts, and our most vulnerable populations will bear the burden of these cuts, including women - one of the cuts that have been proposed is removing change tables and period product dispensers!

I attended the VIFW #reddress event w/ @caitlinstockwell.bsky.social, and it was like no other event I've been to. I was both moved and inspired by the strength and beauty of the words, performances, and work of the speakers, singers, dancers, designers, and other artists.
