Morgane Oger - snapshots from the blogosphere

12,561. That's how many fewer under-18 youth live in Vancouver today than in 2010. That's quite a lot, and it's a hint of why Vancouver schools are emptying as Vancouver keeps getting more expensive. Families are leaving our city for the suburbs and farther afield at a rate that is now nearly 1% of the population per year, and we need to do something about this.

Vancouver needs to make people want to stay here. That's why I'm seeking the nomination with Progress Vancouver for City Council in the upcoming municipal election.

I'm stepping up for the nomination because I want to help get more actually-affordable housing built in Vancouver and because I want to see results that help people suffering on our city's streets who are being neglected because the city is just too slow to react to the housing crisis, to the overdose crisis, and to homelessness.

Instead of Vancouver Council working together making things better, ideologically-motivated political infighting is failing you and just enabling more harm happening to those of us who are most vulnerable.
