Controversial Commercial Drive tower development discussed at public hearing | CBC News More than 120 people registered to speak at a hearing about the redevelopment of the Safeway on East Broadway near Commercial Drive in Vancouver.

Vancouver city council is voting on a redevelopment of a Safeway next to the Broadway-Commercial Skytrain station for three purpose-built rental towers, ranging in height from 36 to 43 storeys (only 10% of which would be below market rates).

We're debating a minor amendment around public space, but after seven years of discussion, the Safeway rezoning for three towers (or MEGAtowers, if you will) is going to PASS.

It continues (with only a few minor exceptions) a long string of pro-supply councils approving these big projects.

Man...Sam Adekugbe can't catch a break. #CanMNT #VWFC

Following the team’s return from Mexico, a significant number of #VWFC players & staff reported gastrointestinal symptoms.

Thanks, this broadcast decision caught me off guard tonight!

Cubas on that moment: “it was nothing really. He was complaining about a foul. I told him not to complain. But all good we move on.”

This is kind of bonkers

#VWFC’s Sam Adekugbe will be out “a couple” of weeks with a quad injury. Likely means he’ll miss the #CanMNT game. Édier Ocampo/Tate Johnson next on the depth chart, but Ocompo is suspended for the #CFMontreal game. (He can play vs. Monterrey.) Sorensen isn’t sure what he’ll do yet. #CanSoccer

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has announced Ottawa will put in place retaliatory tariffs tomorrow if Trump’s tariff order comes in to effect. #bcpoli

Experience: 200+ games as a head coach and 300 as a top-tier player in Denmark.

Eagles WR DeVonta Smith, listed as questionable with a hamstring, may work out on Sunday to see if he can go.

But sources tell me and Mike Garafolo there is not a lot of optimism that he'll be out there. Philly will leave it open, there just isn't a a ton of positivity.
