In Vancouver how it works is that Israel's actions provoke vitriolic criticism of Israel that alarms Jewish institutions (which also generally strongly support Israel's actions). Anti Semitism I think moves to different rhythms.

No one better than Sim's campaign manager to fix Sim's problems.

Perhaps he should be rotated like this more often.

‘The most bitter news’: Iran reels as more than 100 children reportedly killed in school bombing The building appears to be among many devastated in Trump’s ‘major combat operations’ as long expected attacks arrive

As the father of a Jewish daughter who has just started school, I am speechless at this evil.

Where did you get the smart bit from?

Vancouverism

Special thanks to the Germans for invading Reviewer Two

It feels crazy to type this, but Johnson was a much better mayor than Sim.

You can see that he's tempted to become an alt right paladin but is too robotic to pull it off.

Best thing I have read on Gorton by a mile

Instead of an unashamed liar as our mayor we now have a shamed liar - progress?

The province should withhold its approval, at least for this location.

They know nothing about the history of popular Liberalism, which begins with an electorate impelled by dissenting religion to take a fervent interest in foreign policy!

This motion passed. No surprises there, but I tried to delve into the back story behind this training facility. Sources say the mayors chief of staff told them the developer behind the project risks foreclosure if Woodward’s is not tenanted.

Pete Fry? Opposed to building stuff? Near where he lives? I'm amazed.

On what motion??

I hope Trevor Ford is made to answer the claims put by your sources. Although he must currently be....preoccupied.

Vancouver Mayor Ken Sim started false claim councillor 'handed out illegal drugs' Vancouver Mayor Ken Sim accused city Coun. Sean Orr of “handing out illegal drugs on Christmas Day” in a briefing for Chinese-speaking reporters earlier this month, in a false assertion that was parti...

It may be true that Vancouver is a bit boring (I am now too acclimatized to judge), but Vancouver politics rarely are. There is always a storm in our teacup!

I hope btw that this scandal doesn't put your equally important reporting on Woodward's onto the back burner.

I concede that in Vancouver terms I am a member of an interest group demanding SPECIAL treatment - parents.

To me - a person who because of this particular delay now bikes or worse buses their kid everrrrry day from Fairview Slopes to school in Kitsilano - it is obvious enough.

YES

It would be funny if he now reverted to pol prof-dom: 'I can now reveal that this was the hardest and most prolonged ethnography that I have ever undertaken.'

Sue him - please.

Repellent man.

The best thing about Sim hating is there's never a fear of running out of content. There will be more.

It's Green madness.

The developer conspiracies I want to see are the ones that agitate Douglas Todd: sixplexes to DEVASTATE Renfrew.

I try to avoid BuT ThE DEvELoPERs paranoia in Vancouver politics, but even paranoiacs get it right sometimes.

I don't see why Ford's reported comments on avoiding foreclosure for Westbank are not yet a scandal. He doesn't seem to have denied them.
