I was the guy with the black dog that lived in victory square for 3 months back in 2016 . I didn’t know a soul in Vancouver at that time , I ended up homeless because I travelled all they way there for a job that didn’t pan out and left me homeless. It was both the worst and best time of my life . I met the most amazing people . I was never in any real danger , although I was right smack in the middle of it all , I managed to get myself off the streets . But my first night in Vancouver, was heart breaking to say the least . Never in my life did I see so many broken people I cried for two days straight. Asking the creator, what’s my purpose here . The answer was , I neede to lift up my broken family . And the only way I knew how was with my music , so I bought a guitar for 20 bucks of some guy selling stuff at the market and started playing . I didn’t play for money and if someone tried to give me money I would tell them I just need food . And I played every night in victory square. God bless all of you out there struggling . I’m here to say that not everyone homeless is an addict . I mean I slow my weed but that was it . But an addict I was not , am not and will not no matter how bad shit gets . I have been back in Alberta since 2017 and have been at the same job since then . Thank you Vancity I LOVE YOU ALL . Although I was homeless living in a tent , I was more at peace with myself then I ever was , up to that point in my life .. and yes I will be back but this time I won’t be homeless but I will be right there with and for you . God told me my job is to help the helpless . #iloveyouvancity

Those who show pity & solidarity for them are taken advantage by them & will end up in the same position if they don't get their bleeding hearts under control. They aren't needy, they are want-y. They want drugs & have sold their souls & destroyed their families & are now homeless. If you see obvious people on busy streets holding up signs & begging, they are scammers, not truly homeless. People who are actually homeless because of bad circumstances hide themselves away in shame & are actually hard to find. The obvious ones are always scammers, just as they typically are in third world countries.

Everyone deserves to have a place to live. The rents have increased so much that I really think we are going to continue to see more homeless people.

I'm from Vancouver so I can shed some light on it. E. Hastings is a mix of mentally ill, addicts, runaways and homeless from colder parts of Canada who came here because the weather isn't as harsh. It's got a mini economy as well. It's not dangerous in the way America is dangerous. I've walked through at 3 sometimes 4 in the morning and never felt like I was in danger. I've even sat down and chatted with some of the street residents late at night over a beer or two. And yes, if you ask around you can definitely get your hands on whatever you're looking for..... drugs or sex. There's also community outreach and we built community gardens that the residents tend to themselves. You won't get that by just looking at the walking tour. Don't get me wrong though, for the street residents in the sex and drug trade, yes it can be downright dangerous for them. It's a tough city from a housing standpoint because it's the only location in all of Canada with such a mild climate and ease of access to both the ocean and the mountains. Real estate is at a premium that's for sure. And finally, there's a good portion of the homeless that prefer to live on the streets. I know it sounds ass backwards, but it's true. The responsibilities for rent, utilities, taxes... etc are facets of life that they simply don't want. And, believe it or not, alot of the street residents have their network of friends that they share close bonds with. So they won't leave the streets anyway.

I think the real unavoidable lesson of this is that safe supply and harm reduction as a method of tackling drug use and abuse has clearly failed as a tactic and needs to be removed and replaced.

It's important to understand that Vancouver has a large majority of homeless people compared to other provinces because frankly, it's the best place to be homeless (mild winters and summers and large open-air drug market.) Who wants to be homeless in Yukon or Winnipeg?

More like the Tenderloin in San Francisco. BC is also making the same mistake that San Francisco made with decriminalizing drugs. The decriminalization of drugs has caused a drug war and drug dealers to claim certain territory and sell their drugs and one of the District attorneys fought to get prisoners in jail for drug charges released from prison causing homeless to increase by 300% in San Francisco and make it much more violent because the drug users are also violent offenders. BC is crazy to follow in the same steps knowing damn well what’ll happen. Addicts need rehab not enabling.
