This does come up from both the public and politicians (and it's obviously good!) but I worry it'll put an early stop to the momentum we've only started to build on creating more homes. Better than "terrible" is far from "mission accomplished".

yeah. Hopefully this is proof that momentum exists, not that the work is done. We need to get it down further to reduce homelessness. bsky.app/profile/glas...

Also worth considering what made this happen -- building new homes! Prices seem to respond to supply and demand. Wild.

One thing we don't talk about much, but is shaping BC political discourse is the fact that house prices today are below what they were five years ago, and continuing decline (and this is before inflation is taken into account)

Cutting funding to libraries, archives, and museums limits access to knowledge and shared history. These institutions preserve culture, support research, and serve communities. Cuts risk lost records and weakens feeling of community. They are essential to a healthy democracy.
