<p>A meeting to build organized neighbourhood power in response to the expansion of the millenium line along the Broadway corridor. Large-scale transit projects have consistently caused immediate and long-term dis-placement of those who are most vulnerable under capitalism: working-class, unhoused, and/or low income folks; this instability often compounding with and/or as a result of other intersections of oppression such as Dis-Ability, racialization, criminalization, immigration-status & citizenship, language fluency, and Queerness. 'Consultations' via questionnaire and public announcement via billboard are how the city is responding to this dire situation which will effect 25% of all purpose build rentals according to a source <a href="https://syc.vancouver.ca/projects/broadway-plan/broadway-plan-emerging-directions-intro-and-context.pdf?_ga=2.21315634.804160822.1614277085-894155598.1614277085">cited by the city in an early report</a>. Though transit expansion is necessary, this should not and does not have to come at the expense of our community's lives. We can fight this. </p> <p> "WE DON'T NEED MORE CONSULTATION–WE NEED POWER" </p> <a href="https://www.vancouvertenantsunion.ca/broadwayplan_meeting">Visit the Broadway Plan First Meeting event page on VTU website </a>
