CTV – Dedication of The Rich Coleman VACANT LOT: 2007 – 2017 from David Vaisbord on Vimeo.
The event took place on Saturday, April 8.
Thanks to everyone who came out and made it such a successful event. Go to “Vaisbord Vimeo” for more coverage of this hilarious mock celebration of 10 years of nothing.
Here’s the original post:
Where: 37th and Ontario
When: Saturday, April 8, 10:30 AM.
Exactly 10 years ago BC Housing and the BC Liberal Government started pushing people out of their homes at Little Mountain Social Housing. 224 units of social housing and a successful community were destroyed by the provincial government with the promise that they would be quickly rebuilt. Today, Little Mountain is a giant vacant lot.
On Saturday morning, April 8, at 10:30 AM, we (my friends including CALM, the RPSC and former tenants of Little Mountain) will hold a ceremony to mark this anniversary at the corner of 37th Avenue and Ontario Street.
I’ll be there to talk with you about the progress I’ve made with the edit of the documentary: Champions of Little Mountain (formerly The Little Mountain Film).
Please join us on Saturday morning. There will be a couple of speakers, photo and social media opportunities. FYI – we’ll have some staging materials…
Where: 37th and Ontario
When: Saturday, April 8, 10:30 AM.
