Update on this staff proposal, which have been for 2026 only but suggested under the auspices of saving some money: it’s been pulled from this week’s agenda — and given the optics, I can’t see it coming back
City of Vancouver recommends eliminating volunteer civic committees
City of Vancouver recommends eliminating volunteer civic committees

With all the growth coming in store for Broadway and for the Endowment Lands, it makes no sense to stop the Broadway line at Arbutus.

Today, we remember the fourteen young women whose lives were stolen at Polytechnique Montréal 36 years ago.
Their names are a solemn reminder of the devastating toll of gender-based violence — and the responsibility that comes with our remembrance.

The stated reasoning for cancelling these advisory committees 10 months earlier than scheduled includes allowing time for FIFA World Cup stuff and saving $171,000.
