www.youtube.com Stephanie Smith for Vancouver City Council: Vote October 17th I get to talk to a lot of people when I’m campaigning. And I hear t... A whole campaign built around the slogan “Evict Ken Sim” to viciously malign him.
“Scapegoating the poor and homeless. You know, that was us.”
When Ken holds an “Evict Ken Sim” button, it hits hard. His family faced real evictions and financial instability over and over again, growing up as immigrants with little to their name.
And the family who lived through those struggles with him didn’t sign up for these personal attacks.
Ken got into politics so his kids, and other kids growing up in Vancouver, have a chance to build a future here.
That’s why safety and affordability are at the heart of ABC Vancouver’s campaign.
The full change we all wanted hasn’t happened yet. There is still more work to do.
The Public Safety Plebiscite is the next step on safety: stronger City laws against open-air hard drug use and a call for secure medical treatment, including voluntary and 100+ involuntary care beds.
On affordability, it means a 0% property tax increase, help for families and a thriving economy where people can earn enough to get by and build a future here.
Real change takes leadership that can face difficult battles and even brutal personal attacks that hit closer to home than you would ever want and keep going.
Because Vancouver is worth it.
