RALLY TO TAKE BACK LITTLE MOUNTAIN
If you would like to do something about the lack of progress at the former Little Mountain Housing site, then join us at the corner of 33rd Ave. and Ontario at 11am on Saturday, November 30 to mark the date ten years ago that the public housing site was demolished. Vancouver residents will rally next to the former Little Mountain Housing site to call on the government to take back Little Mountain and sign a petition to the premier.

“Everyone knows that this project
has been a failure,” said Community Advocates for Little Mountain spokesperson
David Chudnovsky,
“It’s been 12 years since residents were pushed out of their homes and ten
years since those homes were demolished.
In the midst of a housing crisis the site is still a gigantic 15 acre vacant
lot. Vancouver residents can no longer
tolerate this incredible waste. It’s
time for the provincial government to #Take
Back The Mountain.”
Allan Buium, Riley Park South Cambie
Vision Committee Chair added,
“Our community needs social housing,
affordable rental, co-ops and co-housing.
We need to start over with a project that actually deals with the
affordable housing crisis.”
Organizers are asking the people of Vancouver to join us at the rally at the Little Mountain site, sign the petition, and take part in the social media photography campaign.
