Let'sCallTheWholeThingOffVille
In the aftermath of the developers' big win at Vancouver City Council Tuesday Night night, right-sided NPA Councillor Susan Anton said:
"[Our position] has been framed that we are opposed to social housing," she said yesterday in an interview. "I don't think anything could be further from the truth."
So, our question is the following: Is it possible that Ms. Anton is confusing low end Eastside 'Socialism' with high end Westside 'Socializing'?
Or is she just trying to simultaneously kill and embrace a program that many in this town from all over the political spectrum bought into because it was the right thing to do?
Either way, if it ultimately turns out that Ms. Anton goes along with her fearless leader Mayor Sam Sullivan and helps to dramatically slash the social housing component of the Southeast False Creek development we certainly hope that the mainstream media has the guts to shove those caviar-laced words straight back down her throat.
But if we are way off base, and Ms. Anton is not just cynically spinning as far away from the truth as is humanly possible, we will be the first to eat crow and give credit where credit is due.
