I recently had the chance to chat with @wazaroff.bsky.social who is running for mayor. He is smart, has great judgement, and spends his time providing affordable housing for those who need it. He would make an excellent mayor.

You watched the election and decided that caving to authoritarians in exchange for nothing was wise? Are you aware that the big brand problem for Dems (and a brand problem for Dems means disaster for America) is fecklessness? Not too late for you to undo this stupid betrayal of party and country.

Video has arrived of our annual UBC Sauder School of Business panel discussion, this year on the future of multifamily housing finance. Thanks to our panelists Graham Drexel, Suzana Goncalves, Nick Marks, and Neil Levecque, P. Eng. I certainly learned a lot. www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/dvk8f...

Wouldn't the city make bank by putting in red light / stop sign cams? Is there really a plurality of people stupid or narcissistic enough to think it's a bad idea? "Let's have a negative NPV policy that kills and maims people."
I live close to this intersection and actively avoid it because it feels so dangerous. Cars rip down 16th, don't stop for pedestrians...
Of course, the city does nothing. Pedestrian safety just isn't a priority. And this will only get worse with the upcoming budget cuts.
Heartbreaking :(

“We’ve asked for about four or five years now to get a crossing light put in. The city always comes back with ‘We can only do 10 maximum a year.’"
The bad news is with ABC's budget cuts, that pace will be even slower. Ken Sim and ABC are failing to keep Vancouver residents safe.

Solution to BC condo glut: let developers do short-term rental for a fee, somewhat lower than empty homes + spec tax, have to make good faith effort to market properties. Help fend off bank losses, preserve developer liquidity, ease hotel shortage. Hard to see who loses.

NEW: Rachel Maddow drops unseen bodycam footage of feds coordinating the arrest of Newark Mayor Baraka.
I REPEAT: the feds ordered his arrest even though he wasn’t breaking any laws.
Federal agent: “We are arresting the mayor right now per the Deputy Attorney General of the United States.”

I was back at 26 Federal Plaza today, where an ICE agent violently threw this bereft woman to the ground in front of her kids. She had not touched him. She did not pose any threat. She had to be taken to the hospital. (🎥: Elias Eliahu)

Two good things about @rebeccaleebligh.bsky.social from what I have seen:
1. Works hard and listens to reason.
2. Fundamentally a decent and kind person. I wouldn't be very worried about corruption stuff if she were mayor and I think she'd give a lot of attention to homelessness/addiction.

Vancouver councillor Rebecca Bligh makes official she will run for mayor next year under a new banner of “Vote Vancouver”.
Bligh was first elected in 2018 with the NPA, left them, joined Sim’s ABC Party and was re-elected, before she was booted from ABC, mostly on divisions over social issues.

This is an interesting metric. I suspect there are similar abuses of speech "rights" with respect to COVID, herpes, and warts.

The evening of October 23rd, we will be hosting a panel discussion on the future of multifamily housing finance. I think a very important topic and a great opportunity to schmooze with real estate industry and policy professionals. www.sauder.ubc.ca/event/future.... I hope to see you there.

Question about the Big Beautiful Bill: the Supreme Court has decided that tipping politicians for a job well done is legal, and the bill deletes taxes on tips. So if a rich guy gives a pol a bribe/performance bonus, is that now non-taxable?

Reporter: The president fired the Librarian of Congress. Why?
Leavitt: There were quite concerning things she had done at the Library of Congress in the pursuit of DEI and putting inappropriate books in the library for children.

This does raise an interesting question: are benches entitled to due process? Can the criminal bench be sent to a foreign prison without a hearing because of its alleged criminality? I would think generally benches *can* be sent abroad, but does the alleged criminality imply human rights?
