slogan?
We've come across excellent slogans in our travels
The placard speaks for the thousands that are left without a home as gentrification takes place
Slogans that speak from the heart
Irresponsible rezoning ruins people's lives
Slogans that unite various communities
Rushed development has prompted entire communities to speak out
Slogans that condemn
Vancouver and Burnaby City Halls have been selling expensive chicken coups as affordable housing
Slogans that reveal
The truth, of course, is that people are being rezoned out of their homes because it is very profitable to do so
Slogans that tell it like it is
Yes, indeed, money talks. Why is this all happening? Because construction and developer money is financing the election campaigns of those who have control of our city
Slogans that empower us
Indeed, we can. We are the residents AND the electorate. If not us, then who?
Slogans that point the way forward
A city of towers - crowded and devoid of green space - is not a livable city. We need neighbourhoods where people can live peacefully enjoying both individual and community space. We need a city with ample parks for our children and nearby accessible uncrowded amenities for us all. We need to save and protect our single family dwellings and to enjoy also a variety of other low-rise options as green, comfortable and attractive affordable housing for sale and for rent. And we need to ensure that community planning is shaped by community needs and preferences, not by greed.
Slogans that denounce
If development in our cities is determined by corporate interests, the benefits will be for the greedy few. Communities will get the scraps. Is this the best we can do? Surely we can elect a city council that looks after the interests of all residents.
