History of Vancouver, B.C. Canada

[@franzvanderkraan7583]

Thank you all for the salute to Vancouver! Critiques: Firstly, it's become too obvious to hide: this city is being rebuilt and reshaped for the wealthy. The middle class and other infrastructure peeps can just keep moving the hell out ...so says Vancouver City Planners in their show of attitude. 2. Although you're thorough in your research given the short time allotted, the patronizing voice makes the video sound too much like a desperate sales pitch--which is something we are WELL past needing.

sadly very few can afford to live there. Vancouver for the rich, I suppose.

[@judgedredd8657]

rich and the chinese

[@jacy2332]

It's definitely a city for the rich and expensive.

[@eijonasson]

Perhaps all interested parties will incourage the visible majority (90% poor) to stand up and be counted. To vote in any and all elections. Visible minority is the rich.

I'll be honest, Downtown Vancouver seems soulless...

[@heronimousbrapson863]

Try downtown Calgary if you want soulless....

Very cool videon showing the history of our great city

[@LoganLavery]

I agree with you. I'm a Richmondite that's been away for far too long, but grew up in the 70s & 80s there.

Hongcouver / Taicouver :)

The business owners from Hong Kong ran away from HK before it went back to China. They came with suitcases of money and paid any amount of cash to buy houses in Canada which drove prices up way beyond what most people can afford. With all the apartments it looks like Hong Kong now. You cant see the scenery because of all the towers.

Yes Sure not true - “yes sure racist” ignorant bigot spreading hate lies. I’m a long term resident ... Vancouver was still very affordable and 1998 and 2001 and that was well after the Hong Kong a flurry of activity. It’s mostly they were supplying demand and you racist people need to stop because your heat mongers and you keep rambling the same goddamn piece of shit that’s wrong. All you are, is just pure white supremacist racist. There’s no reasoning with anvil headed steel traps like you. SIGNED, A NON-racist White guy.

I live there😌

[@MrMeanderthal]

I was born in Vancouver in 1963... it WAS a great city until mid 80's... now it is an over populated, over priced, over taxed, over restricted, over regulated pile of CRAP... yes the GVRD (Greater Vancouver Regional District ) is still pretty good but the actual city of Vancouver is a SHITHOLE compared to what it used to be... you go downtown at night and see hundreds of homeless people sleeping on the streets.. a crapy old home that needs to be torn down cost over a million dollars... there is almost NO places to rent and the ones that are for rent are so expensive 90% of BC population can not afford to rent one of those crap holes...

[@zeusvalentine3638]

I was from there too. I left for the east coast years ago. Housing was my problem. So sad what happened to that city. I visited a while ago and saw tents up on Kingsway.

[@yessure5291]

Yes - very true

[@robertcastel1565]

How things have changed, haven't they?

[@HJ-br1bs]

too bad they fd up the housing...

[@BrennenKing-d5w]

Vancouver was never meant to be multicultural this video is lying
