Drug Addiction, Mental Illness, Homelessness…

The primary goal of this site is to provide mature, meaningful discussion about the Vancouver Canucks. However, we all need a break some time so this forum is basically for anything off-topic, off the wall, or to just get something off your chest! This forum is named after poster Creeper, who passed away in July of 2011 and was a long time member of the Canucks message board community.

Tired of the theft, the menacing, the mess, the eyesore and the danger these people put others in besides themselves. The gong show going on in Vancouver and other places needs to stop. It’s like the Walking dead down there. Bring in Norman Reedus to clean it up for all I care. But just fix it.
And out here in the country, the only thing I have to worry about are gophers - and I can shoot those from my deck ;) :mex: :drink:
It’s only because we are taking care of your drug addicts and homeless. Don’t worry they are working on ways of sending them back
Send them back to what? This

Interesting approach. Only question is who foots the bill for their permanent housing repair costs when they trash the place?

The tax payer, I assume, :|

But they can take that; they're the happiest people on earth...

You wanna see trashed housing for the homeless check out the new tower the taxpayers built for them in false creek Olympic village not too long ago. It looks like shit. Apparently it’s Mardi Gras in there nightly. I’m done feeling sorry for these fucks

Why the fuck has the government become the slum lord at taxpayer expense?

Who voted for this shit?

Topper, the liberal druggie huggers (Portland Hotel Society), the Jim Greeners all want this. They already turned the DTES into Riverview and they say they want more. Do yourself a favour google how many DTES buildings BC Housing owns, you’ll be surprised, they own pretty much 75% of the DTES. People keep crying “open up Riverview again!” Not realizing that they did, they just moved it to the DTES

Great article on who owns the downtown Eastside. The long and short of it - you do, the taxpayer, owns it. Apparently BC Housing owns the majority of the DTES to house the zombies.

Fucking Eby wants to run over municipal governments across BC to bring the slums to all British Columbiana.

They have plans for a 35 need no barrier unit here. We don't have that many folks in need here so it means well get imports.

Fucking these ass holes

Well considering probably 50% of the ass holes in Vancouver are from other parts of the province/country it is only fair to ship them back where they came from. You know spread the wealth.
